## Documentation
The documentation for the provider is available on the [Terraform Registry](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/kreuzwerker/docker/latest/docs).
Do you want to migrate from `v2.x` to `v3.x`? Please read the [migration guide](docs/v2_v3_migration.md)
## Example usage
Take a look at the examples in the [documentation](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/kreuzwerker/docker/3.7.0/docs) of the registry
or use the following example:
```hcl
# Set the required provider and versions
terraform {
required_providers {
# We recommend pinning to the specific version of the Docker Provider you're using
# since new versions are released frequently
docker = {
source = "kreuzwerker/docker"
version = "3.7.0"
}
}
}
# Configure the docker provider
provider "docker" {
}
# Create a docker image resource
# -> docker pull nginx:latest
resource "docker_image" "nginx" {
name = "nginx:latest"
keep_locally = true
}
# Create a docker container resource
# -> same as 'docker run --name nginx -p8080:80 -d nginx:latest'
resource "docker_container" "nginx" {
name = "nginx"
image = docker_image.nginx.image_id
ports {
external = 8080
internal = 80
}
}
# Or create a service resource
# -> same as 'docker service create -d -p 8081:80 --name nginx-service --replicas 2 nginx:latest'
resource "docker_service" "nginx_service" {
name = "nginx-service"
task_spec {
container_spec {
image = docker_image.nginx.repo_digest
}
}
mode {
replicated {
replicas = 2
}
}
endpoint_spec {
ports {
published_port = 8081
target_port = 80
}
}
}
```
