Docker micro library

A very tiny wrapper around a ProcessBuilder for running docker commands.

What's a micro library?

Just that, a very tiny standalone .jar which can be imported into a project to do a very specific thing.

Installation

Since we're making good use of JitPack, this is simple.

allprojects {
	repositories {
		maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
	}
}
	
dependencies {
    implementation 'com.github.peavers:docker-micro-library:-SNAPSHOT'
}	

Click the JitPack build badge for more examples with maven, sbt example.

Spring boot example

Wire up the DockerApi and the DockerContainer

@Configuration
public class DockerConfig {

    @Bean
    public DockerApi dockerApi() {
        return new DockerApiImpl();
    }

    @Bean
    public DockerContainer container() {
        return new DockerContainer();
    }

}

Load up the DockerContainer and execute

@Component
public class CreateContainer {

    private final DockerContainer container;

    private final DockerApi dockerApi;

    public CreateContainer(DockerContainer container, DockerApi dockerApi) {
        this.container = container;
        this.dockerApi = dockerApi;
    }
    
    private void create() {
        container.setName("Name of the container");
        container.setImage("createContainer:latest");

        dockerApi.run(container);
    }
}
