Have you considered replace the name with input from stdin? So instead of
name=synapseyou could doname=$1and have one script to use for all containers.yeah but I don't mind having duplicated scripts, it's just easier to go to single script and don't have to worry about everything else, I keep them like
bin/synapse/run,bin/synapse/stop,bin/synapse/logsetc. What I haven't figured out is better way to keep all ports in one place instead ofports.mdfile but on the other hand it's not like I have thousands of containers running.I feel you. I have ~20 container files (some are multiple containers in one file, e.g. db and web server) and I seldom have to do changes to them. Once properly configured, I don't really have to do anything.
