Docker: 5. Retrieve credentials

This documentation is part of the Automate with the CLI guide. View the full guide here: Start Docker, retrieve its credentials, and change its configuration programmatically with the Stackhero CLI.

Welcome to the Stackhero documentation

Stackhero provides a ready-to-use Docker cloud CaaS (Containers as a Service) platform, designed for fast and reliable container deployments:

  • Deploy to production with a single docker-compose up. There is no extra setup: just start your containers.
  • Pick your own domain name, secured automatically with HTTPS (for example: https://api.your-company.com, https://www.your-company.com, or https://backoffice.your-company.com).
  • Benefit from strong performance and robust security on private, dedicated infrastructure.
  • Apply updates with one click for simple, low-effort maintenance.

You can have your containers live in production in about five minutes. Stackhero manages the infrastructure, updates, and security for you, so you can focus on delivering your applications. Read more about Docker CaaS cloud hosting.

The service-configuration-get command returns the complete configuration for your service, including auto-generated passwords and connection details. The output is in JSON format, making it easy to use in scripts and automation.
