SimpleDockerApps

A PowerShell module for simply creating a various servers or apps in a docker containers

This is still a work in progress, however the various functions shall be working

The API might still be changing

TODO

• Add prefix to all functions
• Add help strings to all functions
• Extract some common functionality (e.g. confirmation messages, status checks, ...)
• Add more management functions for bulk actions (stop/start all, etc.)
• Generate documentation (probably leverage platyPS)
• More general polish (e.g. typos, common messages to be similar, naming to be similar, etc.)
• Properly fill manifest file
• Publish to PSGallery
• Improve installation instructions (shall be solved by PS Gallery)
• Add more customization options with sane defaults (e.g. custom ports, custom network, ...)
• Write Pester tests

Usage

Supported Services

• MS SQL - Docker HUB page
• Postgres - Docker HUB page
• Mariadb - Docker HUB page
• OracleDb - (Unfortunately this requires local built image due to Oracles inability to provide one)
  • Instructions for building an image are in oracle/docker-images repo
  • Oracle really missed a train here, it is not a simple task to get it running in docker
  • It can be built only in linux as they provide only shell scripts (/sight)
  • I might still have somewhere powershell scripts for building oracle, but no plans to provide them right now
  • Seriously, just ditch this mess of a database for something more sane, like MSSQL or PostgreSQL

• Redis - Docker HUB page
• Cassandra - Docker HUB page
