How to install Docker on offline Windows 7 machine

I try to install Docker on an offline (completely offline for security reasons) W7 PC. But the install process is heavily dependent on the net....are there any standalone versions to be found or are there any other workarounds.....wwould really like to get this to work.

steps to deploy and run project using Docker:

  1. first install the docker in your machine. Because Docker is linux based environment then for windows it will give you docker with virtual machine “hyper-V Manager”. Download whole package for windows and install it: https://hub.docker.com/editions/community/docker-ce-desktop-windows

  2. once its install check it with following commands: https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/

docker –version
docker container ls –all

  1. Add docker plugin in pom.xml and run following command to make image inside docker container: mvn package docker:build https://www.tutorialspoint.com/spring_boot/spring_boot_creating_docker_image.htm

  2. check all images :

docker image ls

  1. run your project image

docker run your_image_id

  1. it will run same like your spring project run only the port will be change like for me the changed port is

  2. Run your project apis from postman like bellow:

Haven't seen any standalone setup for Docker in windows but Docker Toolbox is what can help you achieve this.

Docker Toolbox provides a way to use Docker on Windows systems, even older that do not meet minimal system requirements for the Docker for Windows app.

Docker Toolbox includes the following Docker tools:

  • Docker CLI client for running Docker Engine to create images and containers

  • Docker Machine so you can run Docker Engine commands from Windows terminals

  • Docker Compose for running the docker-compose command Kitematic, the Docker GUI

  • the Docker QuickStart shell preconfigured for a Docker command-line environment

  • Oracle VM VirtualBox

Update:- In case you don't have boot2docker with the installation and system tries to download it on creating docker machine, you can manually download it from https://api.github.com/repos/boot2docker/boot2docker/releases/latest, have it on your offline system and manually place it at C:\Users\user_name\.docker\machine\cache and it should work. Note: Check for the appropriate version of boot2docker for your Docker Toolbox
