Docker registries contain images, and the Docker Hub is a widely used public registry. The Docker client is a command-line utility that calls the API of the Docker daemon. The Docker daemon is a background application that manages and runs Docker images and containers. Docker containers are runnable instances of images.
Docker images define the contents of containers.
After that you can use your kind cluster in exactly the normal way.The Docker platform has a number of components, of which Docker Desktop is just one part. Running vctl kind configures an alias for docker so that kind cluster create will use vctl. You can configure memory and CPU with the vctl system config commands, or go with the defaults. INFO container nginx-cff5 has been stoppedĬreating a KIND cluster with vctl is, again, a trivial thing. Vctl stop nginx-cff5 & vctl rm nginx-cff5 INFO container nginx-cff5 started and detached from current session Vctl run -v $( pwd ):/usr/share/nginx/html:ro -d -p 8080:80 nginx # Run an NGINX instance that hosts the local directory INFO done # View the images available locally You can just run vctl system start (or configure the resources for the CMX VMs using the vctl system config commands). vctl is a pretty much drop in replacement for docker (so much so that I’ve created an alias alias docker=vctl) with the added benefit that Fusion is responsible for the management of a lightweight virtual machine (the CRX VM) to host containers.Īdd to that the fact that vctl also supports deploying KIND (Kubernetes-in-Docker) to a CRX VM, and we’ve got a seriously useful tool here! Getting started with vctlĪssuming that you’ve got Fusion or Workstation installed, getting started with vctl is pretty easy. Luckily, I remembered that Fusion (and Workstation) now ships with support for containers through the vctl command.

The downside of this is that I have to download and install the pre-compiled Docker binary for MacOS, and maintain my docker host VM, which includes patching, updates, configuration etc. I already have VMware Fusion running on my Macbook Pro, and I can have a CentOS docker host configured as a VM locally, so I can target the docker CLI to use my local docker host and pretty much carry on as usual. I actually don’t use many of Docker Desktop’s features, I rarely use the UI short of rebooting the VM and adjusting it’s memory allocation when I use KIND. Corey Quinn AugDo I need Docker Desktop? "Docker Desktop requires you pay them if you're at a large company," which they define as over $10 million in revenue or 250 employees. So has a new monetization strategy that's definitely innovative. The venerable Corey Quinn was on the news like a flash, so I’ll let you read his thread for some hard core snark analysis. Suffice to say that I work for a large company and would need a subscription to continue using Docker Desktop. I’m not going to opine much on this, time will tell whether this is a company saving move or not. Just recently Docker announced some new pricing tiers for it’s almost ubiquitous Docker Desktop.
