Usage

Use blackfire-player with Docker. Working directory is expected to be at /app in the container.

Example running a scenario located in my-scenario.bkf file:

docker run --rm -it -e BLACKFIRE_CLIENT_ID -e BLACKFIRE_CLIENT_TOKEN -v "`pwd`:/app" blackfire/player run my-scenario.bkf

You may also add a shell alias (in .bashrc, .zshrc, etc.) for convenience.

alias blackfire-player=docker run --rm -it -e BLACKFIRE_CLIENT_ID -e BLACKFIRE_CLIENT_TOKEN -v "`pwd`:/app" blackfire/player

Then, after sourcing your RC file, you can use blackfire-player as if it was the binary itself:

blackfire-player --version
blackfire-player list
blackfire-player run my-scenario.bkf
