=head1 NAME
API::Docker - Perl client for the Docker Engine API
=head1 VERSION
version 0.002
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use API::Docker;
# Connect to local Docker daemon via Unix socket
my $docker = API::Docker->new;
# Or connect to remote Docker daemon
my $docker = API::Docker->new(
host => 'tcp://192.168.1.100:2375',
);
# System information
my $info = $docker->system->info;
my $version = $docker->system->version;
# Container management
my $containers = $docker->containers->list(all => 1);
my $result = $docker->containers->create(
Image => 'nginx:latest',
name => 'my-nginx',
);
$docker->containers->start($result->{Id});
# Image operations
$docker->images->pull(fromImage => 'nginx', tag => 'latest');
my $images = $docker->images->list;
# Network and volume management
my $networks = $docker->networks->list;
my $volumes = $docker->volumes->list;
=head1 DESCRIPTION
API::Docker is a Perl client for the Docker Engine API. It provides a clean
object-oriented interface to manage Docker containers, images, networks, and
volumes.
Key features:
=over
=item * Pure Perl implementation with minimal dependencies
=item * Unix socket and TCP transport support
=item * Automatic API version negotiation
=item * Object-oriented entity classes (Container, Image, Network, Volume)
=item * Comprehensive logging via L<Log::Any>
=back
=head2 Architecture
The distribution is organized into several layers:
=over
=item * B<Main Client> - L<API::Docker> - Entry point with API version negotiation
=item * B<API Modules> - Resource-specific API methods:
=over
=item * L<API::Docker::API::System> - System info, version, ping
=item * L<API::Docker::API::Containers> - Container management
=item * L<API::Docker::API::Images> - Image management
=item * L<API::Docker::API::Networks> - Network management
=item * L<API::Docker::API::Volumes> - Volume management
=item * L<API::Docker::API::Exec> - Exec into containers
=back
=item * B<Entity Classes> - Object wrappers for Docker resources:
=over
=item * L<API::Docker::Container> - Container entity with convenience methods
=item * L<API::Docker::Image> - Image entity
=item * L<API::Docker::Network> - Network entity
=item * L<API::Docker::Volume> - Volume entity
=back
=item * B<HTTP Role> - L<API::Docker::Role::HTTP> - HTTP transport layer
=back
=head2 host
lib/API/Docker.pm view on Meta::CPAN
=head2 volumes
Returns L<API::Docker::API::Volumes> instance for volume operations like
C<list>, C<create>, and C<remove>.
=head2 exec
Returns L<API::Docker::API::Exec> instance for executing commands in containers.
=head2 negotiate_version
$docker->negotiate_version;
Automatically negotiate the highest API version supported by the Docker daemon.
This is called automatically before the first API request if L</api_version>
is not set.
After negotiation, L</api_version> will contain the negotiated version
(e.g., C<1.41>).
=head1 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
=over
=item C<DOCKER_HOST>
Docker daemon connection URL. Used as default for L</host> if not explicitly set.
Examples: C<unix:///var/run/docker.sock>, C<tcp://localhost:2375>
=item C<DOCKER_CERT_PATH>
Path to TLS certificates directory. Used as default for L</cert_path>.
