Identifying Host Deploying Node

TODO: collapasable, copyable, download, etc

Using docker, how can I find out what host is deploying to this nodeTo find out the host deploying to a Docker node, you can use Docker's built-in commands and inspect the container's information. Here's a step-by-step process:

1. List running containers:

docker ps

This command will show you a list of running containers, along with their container IDs, image names, and other information.

2. Inspect the container:

Choose the container ID or name that you're interested in and use the docker inspect command to get more information about that container.

docker inspect <container_id_or_name>

This will output a JSON object containing detailed information about the container.

3. Find the host information:

In the JSON output, you can look for the following fields:

• "HostConfig": This section contains the host configuration details for the container.
• "NetworkSettings": This section contains the network configuration details for the container, including IP addresses and exposed ports.

Here's an example of how to extract the host deploying to the node using jq:

docker inspect <container_id_or_name> | jq '.[0].NetworkSettings.Networks'

This command will show you the network settings for the container, including the gateway and IP address of the host.

Keep in mind that this method will show you information about the host the container is running on, but not specifically the host that deployed the container. The deployment process could have been done through various methods (CI/CD pipelines, manual deployments, etc.), and you would need to investigate the specific deployment process in use to determine the host responsible for deploying the container.
