PoshDocker

Powershell utils for working with Docker on Windows

Features

Setup your shell environment for work with Boot2Docker in a single command
Stop the Boot2Docker virtual machine

The commands also check if the required binaries git and ssh are in your path.

Installation

In your PowerShell console execute:

(new-object Net.WebClient).DownloadString("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ahelmberger/PoshDocker/master/Install.ps1") | iex

You are done. This nice line of PowerShell script will download Install.ps1 and send it to Invoke-Expression to install the PoshDocker module.

Alternatively you can do installation manually

Download PoshDocker.psm1 from https://github.com/ahelmberger/PoshDocker
Copy PoshDocker.psm1 to your modules folder (e.g. Modules\PoshDocker\ )
Execute Import-Module PoshDocker (or add this to your profile)
Enjoy!

Examples

# Start the VM from any state, set all necessary environment variables and output the current docker host IP address
Start-Boot2Docker

# Gracefully shutdown the VM
Stop-Boot2Docker
