API

This is an API reference for the Windows.DockerOrchestrator library.

DockerContainerConfig

Method Description
class DockerContainerConfig This is the class we will use to configure the container before creating it.

DockerContainer

Method Description
class DockerContainer(DockerContainerConfig config) This is the main class we will be making operations to.

DockerContainer methods

Method Description
bool DockerContainer.Create() Creates a new container with specified configuration. Returns wether container was created successfully or not.
bool DockerContainer.Start() Starts the container. Returns wether container was started successfully or not.
bool DockerContainer.Stop() Stops the container. Returns wether container was stopped successfully or not.
bool DockerContainer.Exists() Determines if the container exists and returns the result.
bool DockerContainer.Delete(bool force = false) Deletes the container and returns wether it was successfully deleted or not.
bool DockerContainer.CopyTo(string machinePath, string remotePath) Copies a file or folder from the local machine to the container.
bool DockerContainer.CopyFrom(string remotePath, string machinePath) Copies a file or folder from the container to the local machine.
string DockerContainer.Execute(string command) Executes a command in the container using the container's default command line.

Examples

This is an example on how to create a container, set up the .NET ecosystem and run an application as a service.

using Windows.DockerOrchestrator;

namespace Windows.DockerOrchestrator.Tests
{
    internal class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            string containerName = "MyApp";

            DockerContainer container = new DockerContainer(new DockerContainerConfig
            {
                Name = containerName,
                OperatingSystem = "ubuntu:22.04"
            });

            container.Create();

            if(container.Exists())
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Created container! Starting...");
                container.Start();

                if(container.IsRunning())
                {
                    Console.WriteLine("Started container! Running.");

                    container.Execute("apt-get update");
                    container.Execute("apt-get install -y apt-utils");
                    container.Execute("apt-get install -y wget apt-transport-https");
                    container.Execute("wget https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/20.04/packages-microsoft-prod.deb -O packages-microsoft-prod.deb");
                    container.Execute("dpkg -i packages-microsoft-prod.deb");
                    container.Execute("rm packages-microsoft-prod.deb");
                    container.Execute("apt-get install -y dotnet-sdk-8.0");
                    container.Execute("apt-get install -y systemctl");

                    container.CopyTo("MyApp", "/MyApp").Log("Copied? ");
                    container.CopyTo("MyApp.service", "/etc/systemd/system/MyApp.service").Log("Copied? ");

                    container.Execute("systemctl start MyApp");
                    container.Execute("systemctl status MyApp");
                }
            }

            Console.WriteLine("Completed.");
        }
    }
}
