docker-java

Java API client for Docker

The current implementation is based on Jersey 2.x and therefore classpath incompatible with older Jersey 1.x dependent libraries!

Build with Maven

Prerequisites:
  • Java min 1.7
  • Maven 3

Build and run integration tests as follows:

$ mvn clean install

If you do not have access to a Docker server or just want to execute the build quickly, you can run the build without the integration tests:

$ mvn clean install -DskipITs

By default the docker engine is using local UNIX sockets for communication with the docker CLI so docker-java client also uses UNIX domain sockets to connect to the docker daemon by default. To make the docker daemon listening on a TCP (http/https) port you have to configure it by setting the DOCKER_OPTS environment variable to something like the following:

DOCKER_OPTS="-H tcp://127.0.0.1:2375 -H unix:///var/run/docker.sock"

More details about setting up Docker Engine can be found in the official documentation: https://docs.docker.com/engine/admin/

To force docker-java to use TCP (http) configure the following (see Configuration for details):

DOCKER_HOST=tcp://127.0.0.1:2375

For secure tls (https) communication:

DOCKER_HOST=tcp://127.0.0.1:2376
DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY=1
DOCKER_CERT_PATH=/Users/marcus/.docker/machine/machines/docker-1.11.2

Latest release version

Supports a subset of the Docker Remote API v1.37, Docker Server version since 1.12.6

Configuration

There are a couple of configuration items, all of which have sensible defaults:

  • DOCKER_HOST The Docker Host URL, e.g. tcp://localhost:2376 or unix:///var/run/docker.sock
  • DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY enable/disable TLS verification (switch between http and https protocol)
  • DOCKER_CERT_PATH Path to the certificates needed for TLS verification
  • DOCKER_CONFIG Path for additional docker configuration files (like .dockercfg)
  • api.version The API version, e.g. 1.23.
  • registry.url Your registry's address.
  • registry.username Your registry username (required to push containers).
  • registry.password Your registry password.
  • registry.email Your registry email.

There are three ways to configure, in descending order of precedence:

Programmatic:

In your application, e.g.

DockerClientConfig config = DefaultDockerClientConfig.createDefaultConfigBuilder()
    .withDockerHost("tcp://my-docker-host.tld:2376")
    .withDockerTlsVerify(true)
    .withDockerCertPath("/home/user/.docker/certs")
    .withDockerConfig("/home/user/.docker")
    .withApiVersion("1.30") // optional
    .withRegistryUrl("https://index.docker.io/v1/")
    .withRegistryUsername("dockeruser")
    .withRegistryPassword("ilovedocker")
    .withRegistryEmail("[email protected]")
    .build();
DockerClient docker = DockerClientBuilder.getInstance(config).build();
