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 and was forked from [eficode/wait-for](https://github.com/eficode/wait-for).
When using this tool, you only need to pick the `wait-for` file as part of your project.
## Usage

$ wait-for --help
usage: wait-for host:port [-t timeout] [-- command args]
Synchronize services like docker containers and wait for readiness.
optional arguments:
-q | --quiet Do not output any status messages
-t WAITFOR_TIMEOUT | --timeout=timeout Timeout in seconds, zero for no timeout
-- COMMAND ARGS Execute command with args after the test finishes
```
