@apiclient.xyz/docker

easy communication with docker remote api from node, TypeScript ready

Install

To install @apiclient.xyz/docker, you can use npm (npm package manager). Run the following command in your terminal:

npm install @apiclient.xyz/docker --save

This command installs the package and adds it as a dependency to your project's package.json file.

Usage

The @apiclient.xyz/docker package provides a TypeScript-ready interface for interacting with Docker's Remote API directly from Node.js applications. It leverages TypeScript for strong type definitions, ensuring more reliable and maintainable code.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure:

  • You have Docker installed and running on your machine or a remote server.
  • You are familiar with TypeScript and have it set up in your development environment.

Getting Started

First, import the required classes from the package:

import { DockerHost, DockerContainer, DockerService, DockerNetwork } from '@apiclient.xyz/docker';

Instantiate DockerHost

Start by creating a DockerHost instance. This class is the entry point to communicate with the Docker Remote API.

// Connect to local Docker instance
const localDockerHost = new DockerHost();

// Or specify a custom path or URL to a Docker host
const remoteDockerHost = new DockerHost('tcp://<REMOTE_DOCKER_HOST>:2375');

Working with Containers

List All Containers

async function listAllContainers() {
  const containers = await localDockerHost.getContainers();
  console.log(containers);
}

listAllContainers();

Create and Remove a Container

import { IContainerCreationDescriptor } from '@apiclient.xyz/docker';

async function createAndRemoveContainer() {
  const containerDescriptor: IContainerCreationDescriptor = {
    Hostname: 'test-container',
    Domainname: '',
    // Additional settings here
  };

  // Create container
  const container = await DockerContainer.create(localDockerHost, containerDescriptor);
  console.log(`Container Created: ${container.Id}`);

  // Remove container
  await container.remove();
  console.log(`Container Removed: ${container.Id}`);
}

createAndRemoveContainer();

Working with Docker Services

Create a Docker Service

import { IServiceCreationDescriptor } from '@apiclient.xyz/docker';

async function createDockerService() {
  const serviceDescriptor: IServiceCreationDescriptor = {
    name: 'my-service',
    image: 'nginx:latest', // Docker Image
    // Additional settings
  };
  
  const service = await DockerService.createService(localDockerHost, serviceDescriptor);
  console.log(`Service Created: ${service.Id}`);
}

createDockerService();

Working with Docker Networks

Listing and Creating Networks

async function listAndCreateNetwork() {
  // List all networks
  const networks = await localDockerHost.getNetworks();
  console.log(networks);
  
  // Create a new network
  const network = await DockerNetwork.createNetwork(localDockerHost, {
    Name: 'my-network'
    // Additional settings
  });
  console.log(`Network Created: ${network.Id}`);
}

listAndCreateNetwork();

Advanced Usage

You can leverage the full potential of the Docker Remote API with @apiclient.xyz/docker. This includes managing images, volumes, swarms, and more. The package's design is consistent and intuitive, making it easy to extend your usage as needed.

Remember, the Docker Remote API offers extensive capabilities. Always refer to the Docker API documentation for a comprehensive list of endpoints and actions you can perform.

Conclusion

@apiclient.xyz/docker simplifies interaction with Docker's Remote API in TypeScript projects, providing strong typing and asynchronous operations. Whether you're managing containers, images, services or networks, it offers a comprehensive toolset to perform these tasks seamlessly.
