Docker Wts Build

Schedules Docker Compose builds through Windows Task Scheduler so long builds keep running after VS Code terminal timeouts.

What you can do

• Schedule Docker builds as Windows Task Scheduler tasks so they outlive editor terminal sessions.
• Point it at a project directory and choose the Compose file, custom services, task name prefix and timeout.
• Write build logs to a configurable logs directory.
• Clean up old tasks based on a maximum task age in days.

When to use it

Useful on Windows when Docker Compose builds are long enough to be cut off by VS Code terminal timeouts and you want them to run detached and be logged. Less relevant if you build on Linux, macOS, or in CI.

Requirements

Runs locally as a PyPI package over stdio on Windows, using Windows Task Scheduler. Requires Docker with Compose and a project directory set via DWTB_PROJECT_DIR; optional settings include DWTB_COMPOSE_FILE, DWTB_CUSTOM_SERVICES, DWTB_LOGS_DIR, DWTB_MAX_TASK_AGE_DAYS, DWTB_TASK_PREFIX and DWTB_TASK_TIMEOUT_MS.
