#Docker desktop version pro#
Windows Containers requires Windows 10/11 Pro or Enterprise version 1607 or higher. The flip side though is that if you are the type that prefers minimal command line interfaces then you can also install 'native' Linux Docker on WSL 2 without Docker Desktop and switch back and forth as needed. The downside to this approach is that Docker static binaries on Windows do not support Linux containers, buildx, docker scan, or docker compose functionality.
#Docker desktop version license#
The Docker static binaries are distributed under the Apache 2 license and do not require a Docker Desktop subscription, even for commercial use. Not applicable for Docker running on WSL.If you are getting started with Windows Container development, one option is to install Docker Desktop.ĭocker Desktop gives you access to both Windows Containers and Linux containers, by leveraging WSL 2.Īnother option may eventually be Rancher Desktop if they add Windows support, but it is currently limited to Linux containers.īut if you prefer a lighter, command line approach to working with Windows Containers, it is possible to install and use Docker static binaries without Docker Desktop. When running linux based containers on a windows host, the actual volumes will be stored within the linux VM and will not be available on the host's fs, otherwise windows running on windows => C:\ProgramData\Docker\volumes\Īlso docker inspect will list the container configuration, under Mounts section see more details about the persistence layer. You could backup/persist/share your data with any method you like, but pushing data to a Docker registry to share it does not make any sense. A Docker image is something you can push to a Docker hub (a.k.a. Simply speaking, volumes is just a directory on your host with all your container data, so you could use any method you used before to backup/share your data.Ĭan I push a volume to docker-hub like I do with images? Run other containers based on this container using -volumes-from: docker run -d -volumes-from dbstore -name db1 training/postgres, then all data generated by db1 will persist in the volume of container dbstore.įor more information you could refer to the official Docker volumes docs. Then all your data will persist in /path/on/host you could back it up, copy it to another machine, and re-run your container with the same volume.Ĭreate a data container: docker create -v /dbdata -name dbstore training/postgres /bin/true You can share your data in a volume by:ĭocker run -v /path/on/host:/path/inside/container image The data in a volume is persisted on the host FS and isolated from the life-cycle of a Docker container/image. My main curiosity here is that sharing images etc is great but how do I share my data?Īctually volume is designed for this purpose (manage data in Docker container).

You can refer to these docs for info on how to share drives with Docker on Windows.īTW, Source is the location on the host and Destination is the location inside the container in the following output: "Mounts": [ Anyway you can check it out by looking in Docker settings. Your volume directory is /var/lib/docker/volumes/blog_postgres-data/_data, and /var/lib/docker usually mounted in C:\Users\Public\Documents\Hyper-V\Virtual hard disks. I found my Docker volumes in this location, type in the Windows file explorer : \\wsl$\docker-desktop-data\version-pack-data\community\docker\volumes\
