# wait-for

`./wait-for` is a script designed to synchronize services like docker containers. It is [sh](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bourne_shell) and [alpine](https://alpinelinux.org/) compatible. It was inspired by [vishnubob/wait-for-it](https://github.com/vishnubob/wait-for-it), but the core has been rewritten at [Eficode](http://eficode.com/) by [dsuni](https://github.com/dsuni) and [mrako](https://github.com/mrako).
When using this tool, you only need to pick the `wait-for` file as part of your project.
## Usage
```Shell
$ ./wait-for host:port [-t timeout] [-- command args]
-q | --quiet Do not output any status messages
-t TIMEOUT | --timeout=timeout Timeout in seconds, zero for no timeout
-- COMMAND ARGS Execute command with args after the test finishes
```
## Dependencies
* Installed Netcat
## Examples
To check if [eficode.com](https://eficode.com) is available:
```Shell
$ ./wait-for www.eficode.com:80 -- echo "Eficode site is up"
Connection to www.eficode.com port 80 [tcp/http] succeeded!
Eficode site is up
```
To wait for database container to become available:
```Yaml
version: '2'
services:
db:
image: postgres:9.4
