Posted in Containers
In this previous post I was telling you that you need to download the Windows Core WIM image before start playing with containers on Windows. The game has already change, and you have a module named ContainerProvider that’ll help you with that !
This module is available on the PSGallery. Installating it is a piece of cake
Install-Package ContainerProvider
Answer Yes if you still hasn’t mark PSGallery to a Trusted repository.
Once it’s done, you’ll have few new cmdlets.
Get-Command -Module ContainerProvider
Ok, so let’s look at what kind of Container images we have 🙂
Find-ContainerImage
Seems we have two images availables. Please remember that’s you can use NanoServer images only on a NanoServer host!
As i’m not on a Nano Server, it’ll choose WindowsServerCore for installation
Install-ContainerImage -Name WindowsServerCore
You now have your image available to play !
Get-ContainerImage
Enjoy !
