Install Docker CLI on Windows

 

Step-by-Step: Install Docker CLI on Windows

1. Download the Docker CLI Binary

• Visit the official Docker static binaries repository:

  https://download.docker.com/win/static/stable/x86_64/

• Download the latest .zip archive, for example: docker-28.3.0.zip

2. Extract the Archive

• Extract the contents of the .zip file to a directory of your choice, such as: C:\Tools\DockerCLI

• Inside this directory, you should find the docker.exe file.

3. Add Docker CLI to System PATH

• Open PowerShell as Administrator and run the following command to add the directory to your system's PATH:

  [System.Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("Path", $env:Path + ";C:\Tools\DockerCLI", [System.EnvironmentVariableTarget]::Machine)
  

  Replace C:\Tools\DockerCLI with the path where you extracted docker.exe.

• Restart your terminal to apply the changes.

4. Verify the Installation

• Open a new PowerShell or Command Prompt and run: docker version

  You should see output similar to:

  Client: Docker CLI

Deploy ASP.NET Core Application different image verison in Kubernetes

Deploying the pods (individually or with a replication controller), using the same labels, except for the version, for which you use the value v2. 

Modified the code (frontendmvc).

Build the image, re name the image tag version 2 & publish the image to Docker Hub

docker build -t frontendmvc .
docker tag frontendmvc makader/myapp:frontendmvc-v2
docker push makader/myapp:frontendmvc-v2

Kubernetes ReplicationController

Create multiple instances of the pod using a ReplicationController, which is a master controller that replicates the specified pods, balances them on all the nodes, and reacts if some pod dies to restore the desired state.

forntendmvc_rc.yaml 

--- 
apiVersion: v1
kind: ReplicationController
metadata: 
 name: myapp-rc
spec: 
   replicas: 5  
   selector:    
     app: myapp    
   template:    
     metadata:         
       labels:           
         app: myapp           
         zone: prod           
         version: v1        
     spec:           
       containers:             
         - name:myapp-frontendmvc              
           image: makader/myapp:frontendmvc-v1              
           ports:               
             - containerPort:80

Deploy ASP.NET Core Application images in Kubernetes (K8s) & POD

Publish the image in Docker Hub

Rename the image tag from frontendmvc:v1, to <account_username>/<repository_name>:<tag> (in our case, makdockerhub/myapp:frontendmvc-v1). 

docker tag frontendmvc makader/myapp:frontendmvc-v1

Publish the image with the docker push command. 

  docker push makader/myapp:frontendmvc-v1

 

 

Now we can deploy a frontendmvc container everywhere (aws, azure, pcf, Kubernetes,...).
