  1. Ability to pull Docker container private Docker repository on Docker Hub

    Currently, it is not possible to authenticate on https://hub.docker.com/ to use the container located in private repository.
    The w/a is to make the image public, download it and make it private again.

  3. Start docker container with additional parameters

    Usually, when I use existing docker images from docker-hub or even my own, there are plenty of options I would like to provide on start of a new container. Currently plesk does not support that. From the commandline a docker-container can be instantiated with several image-specific parameters. I would like to be able to do that from plesk , too.

  4. WHMCS module / API to provision Docker containers.

    Docker support is already a killer of Plesk (something I had begged for in WHM/cPanel before switching).

    It would be epic if I could allow customers to purchase and provision a Docker container automatically from WHMCS. Obviously, there would have to be some tight control and they would only be pre-defined images. It must be a list of images that I curate since many Docker images do not provide sufficient environmental variables - example: official Redis doesn't let you pass a password, but others like bitnami/redis and
    frodenas/redis allow you to pass REDIS_PASSWORD, which is necessary for a shared environment…

  5. Podman support

    Centos 8 / RHEL 8 drop support for Docker and they will encourage use of Podman. My hint is to support Docker and Podman. Podman could use the same registries of Docker

  8. docker logs

    Docker containers' logs are not being rotated and in time occupies a lot of space.
    It would be nice if there was an option to specify flags like:
    --log-driver json-file
    --log-opt max-size=50
    --log-opt max-file=2

  9. Extend restart options for docker

    Currently, Docker extension only supports "no" and "unless-stopped" (represented by "Automatic start after system reboot" tickbox).
    It would be nice having the ability to select any of:

    no
    on-failure
    always
    unless-stopped

  10. Programmatically set Forwarding Proxy to Docker container

    If it becomes possible to set those proxies in a bash script the rules can be activated/deactivated when, for instance, we're running an update via any automated CI service.

  11. docker proxy rule respect host/ip

    when mapping a port to the host it is possible to bind it to a host/ip too.

    # docker run --name test -p 127.0.1.1:80:80 ...

    # docker port test
    80/tcp -> 127.0.1.1:80

    When building a docker rule now in plesk the host/ip is ignored and the proxy_pass goes for the default ip 0.0.0.0:

    proxy_pass http://0.0.0.0:80;

    The rule should respect the host/ip.

    proxy_pass http://127.0.1.1:80;

    Have a nice day

  13. Allow setting of ip adresses for docker containers when multiple nics are available

    When a server has multiple external ip adresses (either dedicated network interfaces or alias interfaces) it should be possible via the UI to specify (in addition to the port mapping) the ip address that are recognized by the system.

    This could be a dropdown with i.e.
    "any" (any of the ip addresses)
    81.169.175.40
    81.169.175.41
    ...

  14. Allow multiple Docker hosts (local and remote), ability to specify host per container.

    The Docker extension only allows you to "one service at a time" (ie, localhost, or a remote).

    It would be nice if when I provision a Docker container that I could choose to provision it on localhost (for speed, security) or remotely (for containers that don't need to run on the shared host and/or consume significant resources).

    For example, I almost always want to provision Redis locally for speed, but if someone wanted something like MS SQL Server 2017 (4GB RAM minimum), I'd probably want to put it on a dedicated Docker remote with a high memory configuration (extreme example…

  15. Disable docker exposed ports in firewall

    It should be possible to block the port exposing in global nets from docker containers within the firewall.
    It's a massive security lack! Most applications are run behind a 'docker proxy rule', so there's no need to expose the port to the whole internet.
    Docker's modifying the firewall by itself, so this has to be disabled.
