Windows Containers Support

[Elufimov]

Hi! It would be great to have a support of native windows containers. Do you have any plans for it?

[jonnyzzz]

Do you see what should we change in the plugin for that?

• docker client detection for all OS version
• docker info instrospection (to let ones select agents with correct docker deamon, but DOCKER_HOST)

anything else?

Let's have issues for each of such tasks to simplify the process

[Elufimov]

Right now docker exist on
Linux: Linux containers (full native)
Windows: Linux containers (as hyper-v vm, but shared folders work fine), Windows containers (full native)
macOS: Linux containers (as tiny vm, but shared folders work fine)
We can find out container engine type by parsing docker version.
Windows containers:

Server:
OS/Arch:      windows/amd64

All the rest containers:

Server:
OS/Arch:      linux/amd64

For windows containers maybe a good idea will be give user a choice between cmd and powershell shells.

[beaudryj]

yes something other than /bin/bash or /bin/sh

same for vagrant as well - #10

[Elufimov]

@beaudryj you can join #51 Right now we agree to implement only cmd shell. The idea is that you can call others shells via the basic ones (sh, bash, cmd).
