Introduction of Docker Context

This guide shows how contexts make it easy for a single Docker CLI to manage multiple Swarm clusters, multiple Kubernetes clusters, and multiple individual Docker nodes.

A single Docker CLI can have multiple contexts. Each context contains all of the endpoint and security information required to manage a different cluster or node. The docker context command makes it easy to configure these contexts and switch between them.

As an example, a single Docker client on your company laptop might be configured with two contexts; dev-k8s and prod-swarm. dev-k8s contains the endpoint data and security credentials to configure and manage a Kubernetes cluster in a development environment. prod-swarm contains everything required to manage a Swarm cluster in a production environment. Once these contexts are configured, you can use the top-level docker context use <context-name> to easily switch between them.

To follow the examples in this guide, you’ll need:

  1. A Docker client that supports the top-level context command

Run docker context to verify that your Docker client supports contexts.

You will also need one of the following:

  1. Docker Swarm cluster
  2. Single-engine Docker node
  3. Kubernetes cluster

The anatomy of a context

A context is a combination of several properties. These include:

  1. Name
  2. Type
  3. Endpoint configuration
  4. Orchestrator

The easiest way to see what a context looks like is to view the default context.

 ~  docker context ls
NAME                TYPE  DESCRIPTION                               DOCKER ENDPOINT                             KUBERNETES ENDPOINT   ORCHESTRATOR
default *           moby  Current DOCKER_HOST based configuration   npipe:////./pipe/docker_engine                                    swarm
desktop-linux       moby                                            npipe:////./pipe/dockerDesktopLinuxEngine

This shows a single context called default. It’s configured to talk to a Swarm cluster through the local ./pipe/docker_engine Unix socket. It has no Kubernetes endpoint configured. The asterisk in the NAME column indicates that this is the active context. This means all docker commands will be executed against the default context unless overridden with environment variables such as DOCKER_HOST and DOCKER_CONTEXT, or on the command-line with the --context and --host flags.

Dig a bit deeper with docker context inspect. In this example, we’re inspecting the context called default.

 ~  docker context inspect default
[
    {
        "Name": "default",
        "Metadata": {
            "StackOrchestrator": "swarm"
        },
        "Endpoints": {
            "docker": {
                "Host": "npipe:////./pipe/docker_engine",
                "SkipTLSVerify": false
            }
        },
        "TLSMaterial": {},
        "Storage": {
            "MetadataPath": "\u003cIN MEMORY\u003e",
            "TLSPath": "\u003cIN MEMORY\u003e"
        }
    }
]

Create a new context

You can create new contexts with the docker context create command.

The following example creates a new context called docker-remote-linux and specifies the following:

  1. Default orchestrator = Swarm
  2. Issue commands to the local Unix socket unix:///var/run/docker.sock
  3. Or you can using ssh to connect remote docker-daemon ssh://user@remotehost
  4. Or you can using tcp to connect remote docker-daemon tcp://127.0.0.1:2375, required config for docker daemon export and expose tcp port 2375
## using unix socket (by default enabled when installed docker daemon)
docker context create default \
  --default-stack-orchestrator=swarm \
  --docker host=unix:///var/run/docker.sock

## using ssh
docker context create docker-ssh-test \
  --default-stack-orchestrator swarm \
  --docker host=ssh://user@192.168.88.199

## using tcp (Not Recommended because not secure)
docker context create docker-tcp-test \
  --default-stack-orchestrator=swarm \
  --docker host=tcp://192.168.88.199:2375

Jika dijalankan maka hasilnya seperti berikut:

 ~   docker context ls
NAME                TYPE                DESCRIPTION                               DOCKER ENDPOINT                             KUBERNETES ENDPOINT   ORCHESTRATOR
default *           moby                Current DOCKER_HOST based configuration   npipe:////./pipe/docker_engine                                    swarm
desktop-linux       moby                                                          npipe:////./pipe/dockerDesktopLinuxEngine

Export & Import Docker Context

The docker context command makes it easy to export and import contexts on different machines with the Docker client installed.

You can use the docker context export command to export an existing context to a file. This file can later be imported on another machine that has the docker client installed. By default, contexts will be exported as a native Docker contexts. You can export and import these using the docker context command. If the context you are exporting includes a Kubernetes endpoint, the Kubernetes part of the context will be included in the export and import operations.

Exporting and importing a native Docker context

The following example exports an existing context called docker-ssh-test. It will be written to a file called

docker context export docker-ssh-test

Jika dijalankan maka hasilnya seperti berikut:

## export docker context
 ~  docker context export docker-ssh-test
Written file "docker-ssh-test.dockercontext"

 ~  cat .\docker-ssh-test.dockercontext
