PowerShell-Docker

These Dockerfiles enable running PowerShell in a container for each Linux distribution we support.

This requires Docker 17.05 or newer. It also expects you to be able to run Docker without sudo. Please follow Docker's official instructions to install Docker correctly.

Release

The release containers derive from the official distribution image, such as debian:11, then install dependencies, and finally install the PowerShell package.

These containers live at Microsoft Artifact Registry.

At about 440 megabytes, they are decently minimal, with their size being the sum of the base image (200 megabytes) plus the uncompressed package (120 megabytes), and about 120 megabytes of .NET Core and bootstrapping dependencies.

Community

The Dockerfiles in the community folder were contributed by the community and are not yet officially supported.

Examples

To run PowerShell from using a container:

$ docker run -it mcr.microsoft.com/powershell

Telemetry

By default, PowerShell collects the OS description and the version of PowerShell (equivalent to $PSVersionTable.OS and $PSVersionTable.GitCommitId) using Application Insights. To opt-out of sending telemetry, create an environment variable called POWERSHELL_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT set to a value of 1 before starting PowerShell from the installed location. The telemetry we collect fall under the Microsoft Privacy Statement.
