How to execute Windows container with NodeJs

Hi dear, in this article we'll see how to execute Windows container with NodeJs

Note: For now, don't exists any official docker image with NodeJs to Windows container. You can confire at the official repository on dockerhub: https://hub.docker.com/_/node/

Let's see one example to run Windows container with NodeJs, separated at:

Note: You can see the tags that are the versions of NodeJs, for example henriqueholtz/node-win:16.15.1 have the NodeJs on 16.15.1 version.

Let's run it!

In your terminal, run the command below to create the container with the name win-16-15-1



docker run -d -t --name=node-win-16-15-1 henriqueholtz/node-win:16.15.1


Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

After created, we can access the container by name with the command:



docker exec -it node-win-16-15-1 cmd


Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Now we are into the container, and we can see the NodeJs version with the simple command:



node --version


Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

output of  raw `node --version` endraw  command

With this we can run another apps like ReactJs, NextJs and much more, on Windows container!
