Manage Docker Compose from iPhone.
Step-by-step mobile workflow for managing Docker Compose from iPhone with saved commands and Stream Mode.
This guide shows which part is saved in sshChat and which part runs on the server. The goal is a clean mobile runbook, not retyping long Docker commands.
Step 1: Save Docker commands in the catalog
Create saved commands in sshChat. They execute later on the server that runs Docker Compose.
docker compose ps
docker compose up -d
docker compose restart api
docker compose logs --tail 100 web
Use short titles like PS, Up Detached, Restart API, and Logs Web.
Step 2: Mark long-running Docker commands for Stream Mode
Toggle Stream Mode in the saved command entry inside sshChat.
docker compose build
docker compose up
These commands keep producing output. Stream Mode lets you watch progress instead of waiting for one big result at the end.
Step 3: Keep snapshots in normal mode
Use normal mode for:
docker compose ps
docker compose logs --tail 100 web
Short snapshots keep the chat clean and are easier to scan later in history.
Step 4: Turn Docker into a mobile runbook
Create one category called Docker or Production, then order the commands by the way you normally triage issues: status, logs, restart, build.
You can manage Compose from the phone with taps instead of writing shell syntax every time.
