Repository files navigation

Turn any GitHub repository into a production-ready Docker container with AI-powered Dockerfile generation.

Gitcontainer is an AI-powered web application that automatically generates production-ready Dockerfiles by analyzing GitHub repositories. Simply paste a GitHub URL and get a tailored Dockerfile with intelligent base image selection, dependency management, and Docker best practices.

Simply replacegithub.com withgitcontainer.com in any GitHub repository URL to instantly access the Dockerfile generation page for that repository.

For example:

https://github.com/username/repo  →  https://gitcontainer.com/username/repo

• 🔄 Instant URL Access: Just replace 'github.com' with 'gitcontainer.com' in any GitHub URL
• 🤖 AI-Powered Analysis: Uses OpenAI GPT-4 to analyze repository structure and generate intelligent Dockerfiles
• ⚡ Real-time Streaming: Watch the AI generate your Dockerfile in real-time with WebSocket streaming
• 🎯 Smart Detection: Automatically detects technology stacks (Python, Node.js, Java, Go, etc.)
• 🔧 Production-Ready: Generates Dockerfiles following best practices with proper security, multi-stage builds, and optimization
• 📋 Additional Instructions: Add custom requirements for specialized environments
• 📄 Docker Compose: Automatically suggests docker-compose.yml for complex applications
• 🎨 Modern UI: Clean, responsive interface with Monaco editor for syntax highlighting
• 📱 Mobile Friendly: Works seamlessly on desktop and mobile devices

• Python 3.9 or higher
• Git
• OpenAI API key

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/cyclotruc/gitcontainer.gitcd gitcontainer

2. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Set up environment variables:

   # Create .env fileecho"OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key_here"> .env

4. Run the application:

   python app.py

5. Open your browser:Navigate tohttp://localhost:8000

1. URL Processing: Access any repository by replacing 'github.com' with 'gitcontainer.com' in the URL
2. Repository Cloning: Gitcontainer clones the GitHub repository locally using Git
3. Code Analysis: Usesgitingest to analyze the repository structure and extract relevant information
4. AI Generation: Sends the analysis to OpenAI GPT-4 with specialized prompts for Dockerfile generation
5. Smart Optimization: The AI considers:
   • Technology stack detection
   • Dependency management
   • Security best practices
   • Multi-stage builds when beneficial
   • Port configuration
   • Environment variables
   • Health checks

Use the "Additional instructions" feature to customize generation:

• "Use Alpine Linux for smaller image size"
• "Include Redis and PostgreSQL"
• "Optimize for production deployment"
• "Add development tools for debugging"
