 # dockge-cli
 
 A simple CLI application written in Python for communicating with Dockge using websockets
+
+## Background
+
+Dockge (spoken dock-ge or dockage) is a tool to manage docker-compose stacks from a web ui. It is developed by louislam, who also develops UptimeKuma.
+
+Dockge itself doesn't offer any kind of API or programmatic access, as it is just intended for managing stacks via UI.
+
+My current deployment solution for firq.dev and fgo-ta.com is based on Dockge, and I was over it always having to reload the stack whenever I pushed an update. Instead, I wanted to have this as a separate CI step, automatically redeploying a givens stack.
+
+As Dockge is using a websocket-based system under the hood, it was easy to take a look at how communication occurs. In general, communication is achieved by leveraging socket.io for the data. Since Python already offers a solution for socket.io, it is just a matter of emulating the calls the webui sends and receives.
+
+In the end, this is the current result that works pretty well for my understanding. I am still trying to improve upon some issues (login times out, stability, features), but in general this works as a fine solution for automatic stack updating.
+
+## Installation
+
+Install it from the custom package index using
+
+```
+pip install --extra-index-url https://forgejo.neshweb.net/api/packages/Firq/pypi/simple/ dockge-cli
+```
+
+Alternativly, install it using this repository. When installing for development, make sure to install with the additional dependencies
+
+```
+pip install -e .[lint,typing]
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+Call the CLI using `dockge-cli` or `dockge`.
