*Update: From FW27 forward, Docker can be activated from the Web Based Management onboard the controller. The rest of the tips for working with Docker still stand.

Here is a complete guide to getting started with Docker on the WAGO platform.

This will step you through:

  • Pulling pre-build images
  • Running images as containers
  • Building your own Docker images using the Dockerfile

Docker is a great tool to modularize and isolate your controllers software stack.

Maybe it should be mentioned here that this description is obsolete, since FW 27 allows to activate Docker from the WBM.

what if you followed the installation of the ipk, on a FW28, i get some weird outputs if i run docker in the ssh.

–“edit” i just reinstalled FW27, to use the option in WBM instead of the installation. All is good now. i dont think it matters if its FW27 or 28 i just needed a fresh start after the mess i made.
