⏲️dekoeky/counter

🧮 Just a container that counts. Forever. 🔁 Why? Because it can. 🤷‍♂️

📖 What is This?

This container runs a minimal shell script that counts upward in a loop. It prints a number, waits a bit, increments, and repeats — forever (or until stopped).

It’s great for:

• Simulating long-running processes
• 🧪 Debugging container behavior
• 📡 Testing logging systems
• 🧰 Demonstrating container basics (shell, signals, PID 1)
• 🧱 Demonstrating multi-arch builds
• 😴 Watching numbers change instead of working

⚙️ Environment Variables

Variable	Description	Default
start	The number to start counting from	0
increment	The amount to increase each step	1
delay	Seconds to wait between each count	1

▶️ Example

docker run --rm -e start=10 -e increment=2 -e delay=0.5 dekoeky/counter
# Sample Output:
# Counter: 10
# Counter: 12
# Counter: 14
# ...
