Interface: DockerDesktopClient

An amalgam of the v0 and v1 interfaces of the Docker Desktop API client, provided for backwards compatibility reasons. Unless you're working with a legacy extension, use the v1 type instead.

The window.ddClient.backend object can be used to communicate with the backend defined in the vm section of the extension metadata. The client is already connected to the backend.

警告

It will be removed in a future version. Use exec instead.

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
cmdstringThe command to be executed.

Returns

Promise< ExecResultV0>

Inherited from

DockerDesktopClientV0.execHostCmd


spawnHostCmd

spawnHostCmd(cmd, args, callback): void

Invoke an extension binary on your host and get the output stream.

window.ddClient.spawnHostCmd(
  `cliShippedOnHost`,
  [`arg1`, `arg2`],
  (data: any, err: any) => {
    console.log(data.stdout, data.stderr);
    // Once the command exits we get the status code
    if (data.code) {
      console.log(data.code);
    }
  }
);

警告

It will be removed in a future version. Use exec instead.

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
cmdstringThe command to be executed.
argsstring[]The arguments of the command to execute.
callback(data: any, error: any) => voidThe callback function where to listen from the command output data and errors.

Returns

void

Inherited from

DockerDesktopClientV0.spawnHostCmd


execDockerCmd

execDockerCmd(cmd, ...args): Promise< ExecResultV0>

You can also directly execute the Docker binary.

const output = await window.ddClient.execDockerCmd("info");

警告

It will be removed in a future version. Use exec instead.

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
cmdstringThe command to execute.
...argsstring[]The arguments of the command to execute.

Returns

Promise< ExecResultV0>

The result will contain both the standard output and the standard error of the executed command:

{
  "stderr": "...",
  "stdout": "..."
}

For convenience, the command result object also has methods to easily parse it depending on the output format:

  • output.lines(): string[] splits output lines.
  • output.parseJsonObject(): any parses a well-formed JSON output.
  • output.parseJsonLines(): any[] parses each output line as a JSON object.

If the output of the command is too long, or you need to get the output as a stream you can use the

  • spawnDockerCmd function:
window.ddClient.spawnDockerCmd("logs", ["-f", "..."], (data, error) => {
  console.log(data.stdout);
});
