It uses the library [dockerode](https://github.com/apocas/dockerode). ## Installation ```bash npm install --save simple-container ``` ## Using A simple example that creates and starts a container: ```JavaScript import Containers from 'simple-container'; var containers = new Containers(); containers.create('postgres:alpine').then(container => { console.info(`The ${container.id} container was created.`); start(container); }); /* Run the created container */ function start(container) { container.start().then(() => { console.info(`The ${container.id} container is running.`); }); } ``` ### Remote connection By default, the local service is used. For example, if you want to use connection settings: ```JavaScript var containers = new Containers({ host: '127.0.0.1', port: 3000 }); ``` Examples and details in [the documentation](https://github.com/apocas/dockerode#getting-started). ### Creating a container You can create a container in two ways. A simple way - to specify the name of the image: ```JavaScript containers.create('hello-world:latest'); ``` Another way - to provide an object with parameters: ```JavaScript containers.create({ Image: 'postgres:alpine', Env: ['POSTGRES_PASSWORD = password'], Ports: [{ IP: '0.0.0.0', PrivatePort: 5432, PublicPort: 5432, Type: 'tcp' }] }); ``` Examples and details in [the documentation](https://github.com/apocas/dockerode#manipulating-a-container). An additional example of obtaining a private image: ```JavaScript var auth = { username: 'username', password: 'password', email: 'email@example.org', serveraddress: 'https://index.docker.io/v1' }; containers.create({ Image: 'project:latest', authconfig: auth }); ``` Details in [the documentation](https://github.com/apocas/dockerode#pull-from-private-repos). ## Debugging Use the `DEBUG` variable with the `containers` option. Result of output: ```bash $ DEBUG="containers" node ./example.js container { status: 'Pulling from library/postgres', id: 'alpine' } +0ms container { status: 'Already exists', container progressDetail: {}, container id: '019300c8a437' } +0ms container { status: 'Pulling fs layer', container progressDetail: {}, container id: '885fa9f8b950' } +0ms ... ``` Or redefine the function to your own: ```JavaScript containers.debug = function() { var args = Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments); /* Debugger code */ } ``` ## License [![JavaScript Style Guide](https://cdn.rawgit.com/feross/standard/master/badge.svg)](https://github.com/eslint/eslint) [MIT](LICENSE.md).
