Docker

Installing Docker

scoop install docker

Please note that this will not install Docker Engine

Using Docker CLI

Connect to Docker Engine with Docker CLI:

docker -H <host:port>

The Docker Engine daemon must listen to a tcp socket.

Provision Docker Engine with Docker Machine

Requirements: Virtualbox, VMware, Hyper-V or any of the Docker Machine drivers

1. Create our Docker base machine (will be named default):

docker-machine create default

2. Each time starting working with Docker

docker-machine start
docker-machine env | Invoke-Expression

3. Then we can bring up any Docker image

docker run ubuntu /bin/echo "Hello world"

4. When finished:

docker-machine stop

5. Getting our Docker machine:

docker-machine ls

Accessing from WSL environment

eval $(docker-machine.exe env docker-host --shell wsl ) && export DOCKER_CERT_PATH=$(wslpath $DOCKER_CERT_PATH)
