bobbintb Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 (edited) I have a few docker containers that are dependent on others to run. Some need mongodb, swag, or elasticsearch. The only reason I have those containers is because other containers require them. Sometimes one of those is turned off for whatever reason and my app doesn't work and I have to start the dependent container. It would be convenient if I could link the containers and hide the dependent container from the normal view. That way, when I start and stop the main container, it will automatically start and stop the dependent container. I'd also like to hide the dependent container from the normal list, as I don't actively use it for anything and it's really just clutter. Edited March 26, 2021 by bobbintb Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 The docker folder plugin would be a good place to look. 3 Quote Link to comment

THANKS! I wasn't aware of such a plugin. That solves the grouping issue but I don't see a way to start/stop them automatically. Admittedly, it's probably not as needed now since the way they are grouped makes it easier. Quote Link to comment
