Using Docker

• Docker does not need Node.js to be installed on your computer.
• Pass the cow number between 1-423 that you want to view.
• Kind of like Whalesay

Plus the ASCII cows assembled by Sindre Sorhus are really fun.

Run the image straight from the Docker Hub:

If this is the first run, then Docker will pull the image from the Hub.

$ docker run alexellis2/cows 423
               (__)
(__)           (oo)
(oo)      ______\/
-\/    /|      |
| |   * |______|
| |        ||
---        --
Cow Computer

Build the image:

docker build -t cows .

Push the image to your own Hub

First build the image, then log into the Docker Hub, tag the image with your username, then push.

$ docker login
$ docker tag cows some_username/cows
$ docker push some_username/cows

Local installation without Docker

$ git clone https://github.com/alexellis/cows-docker
$ npm install

Usage without Docker

$ node ./show_cow.js 0
Enter cow number between [1-423]

$ node ./show_cow.js 423

As an npm module

Start a blank project:

$ mkdir myproject
$ cd myproject
$ npm init -y

Then install the showcows module:

$ npm install --save showcows
$ var cows = require('showcows');
$ console.log(cows(1))
