FluentDocker

This library enables docker and docker-compose interactions using a Fluent API. It is supported on Linux, Windows and Mac. It also has support for the legacy docker-machine interactions.

Have a look at the project site for more information.

Sample Fluent API usage

      using (
        var container =
          new Builder().UseContainer()
            .UseImage("kiasaki/alpine-postgres")
            .ExposePort(5432)
            .WithEnvironment("POSTGRES_PASSWORD=mysecretpassword")
            .WaitForPort("5432/tcp", 30000 /*30s*/)
            .Build()
            .Start())
      {
        var config = container.GetConfiguration(true);
        Assert.AreEqual(ServiceRunningState.Running, config.State.ToServiceState());
      }

The following snippet fires up Postgres and waits for it to be ready. It uses docker-compose file to perform the task.

      var file = Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(),
        (TemplateString) "Resources/ComposeTests/WordPress/docker-compose.yml");

      // @formatter:off
      using (var svc = new Builder()
                        .UseContainer()
                        .UseCompose()
                        .FromFile(file)
                        .RemoveOrphans()
                        .WaitForHttp("wordpress", "http://localhost:8000/wp-admin/install.php") 
                        .Build().Start())
        // @formatter:on
      {
        // We now have a running WordPress with a MySql database        
        var installPage = await "http://localhost:8000/wp-admin/install.php".Wget();

        Assert.IsTrue(installPage.IndexOf("https://wordpress.org/", StringComparison.Ordinal) != -1);
        Assert.AreEqual(1, svc.Hosts.Count); // The host used by compose
        Assert.AreEqual(2, svc.Containers.Count); // We can access each individual container
        Assert.AreEqual(2, svc.Images.Count); // And the images used.
      }

👀 It has tons of features, including a low-level command style, services and finally, the Fluent API on top of it.
