cake is a CLI system that turns your Raspberry Pi into a tiny container running machine.

Running cake on your Raspberry Pi is all you'll need to run any container on it. Once you've got cake running on your sweet Raspi, you won't need to login again to update your container. You just need to push your changes to your Docker Hub repo and the container on your Raspi will automatically run!

To install cake on your Raspi, just run:

aptitude install cake

cake is minimal and only contains 2 components (which is currently maintained by 1 developer). So cake currently exists as a monorepo, with each component maintained under its own directory.

• cli - this is where the cake-cli lives
• caked - this is where the cake daemon lives

Both components are required for cake to run.

cake-cli is simply a way to interface with the cake daemon and tell it what to do from a friendly CLI.

caked is a daemon that runs the core part of cake's logic. caked and cake-cli talk to each other using gRPC.
