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.

Add portainer
while somewhat noob friendly the current docker plugin is just missing pretty much every feature to make it useful for anyone else than a hobbyist.
Portainer is multitudes more powerful and feature rich to serve the power users, for example being able to set up networks and swarms

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…16 votes -
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

docker logs
Docker containers' logs are not being rotated and in time occupies a lot of space.

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 -> 127.0.1.1:80When 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

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)

Add ability to manage Docker networks
Please add the ability to manage Docker networks by means of Plesk interface. It would be really nice to have the ability to create subnets and move containers between them.

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…

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.4 votesThank you for your idea! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.
