Clients
Given the constraints, running dokku commands remotely via SSH is fine. For certain configurations, the extra complication of manually invoking ssh can be a burden.
While dokku does not yet have an official client, there are various ways in which you can interact with your dokku installation.
(bash) dokku_client.sh
Of all methods, this is the most official method of interacting with your dokku installation. It is a bash script that interacts with a remote dokku installation via ssh. It is available in contrib/dokku_client.sh in the root of the dokku repository.
To install, simply clone the dokku repository down and add the dokku alias pointing at the script:
git clone git@github.com:progrium/dokku.git ~/.dokku
# add the following to either your
# .bashrc, .bash_profile, or .profile file
alias dokku='$HOME/.dokku/contrib/dokku_client.sh'
Configure the DOKKU_HOST environment variable or run dokku from a repository with a git remote named dokku pointed at your dokku host in order to use the script as normal.
(python) dokku-client
dokku-client is an extensible python-based cli wrapper for remote dokku hosts. You can install it via the following shell command (assuming you have python and pip installed):
pip install dokku-client
See documentation here for more information.
(ruby) Dokku CLI
Dokku CLI is a rubygem that acts as a client for your dokku installation. You can install it via the following shell command (assuming you have ruby and rubygems installed):
gem install dokku-cli

(ruby) DokkuClient
DokkuClient is another rubygem that acts as a client for your dokku installation with built-in support for certain external plugins. You can install it via the following shell command (assuming you have ruby and rubygems installed):
gem install dokku_client
