Command Line Tools

wheels deploy server bootstrap

Install Docker on every host. Idempotent — re-runs on already-installed hosts are no-ops.

Invoke it through the flat alias wheels deploy bootstrap. The nested wheels deploy server bootstrap form is shadowed at the shell — the CLI’s picocli root owns a top-level server command for Lucee instance management and prints its help instead (#2677, fixed by the flat alias in #2690). The nested form remains only for direct callers that bypass the shell, such as MCP.

synopsis
wheels deploy bootstrap [--destination=<name>] [--dry-run]
FlagDescription
--destination=<name>Overlay destination config.
--dry-runPrint the commands without executing.

Per host:

per-host behavior
which docker >/dev/null 2>&1 || curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | sh

The convenience script runs as root (or via sudo). For production hardening, install Docker through your usual config management instead — this is a fast-start verb, not a production setup.
