Docker Containers Server

The Container Manager is RoqueOS's Docker operations center. Install applications from the App Store with one click, import containers via docker run or docker-compose.yml, manage lifecycle, view real-time logs and access container web interfaces through the built-in reverse proxy.

Ways to Install Containers

RoqueOS offers four ways to create containers, from simplest to most advanced:

1. App Store (One Click)

The easiest way. The catalog features dozens of popular pre-configured apps:

1. Open the Container Manager from the Launchpad
2. In the App Store tab, browse the catalog or use search
3. Click Install on the desired app
4. Wait for the image download and container creation

See the full App Store catalog for the list of available apps.

2. Import via Docker Run

Already have a docker run command ready? Paste it directly into RoqueOS:

1. In the Container Manager, click + New Container
2. Select the Docker Run tab
3. Paste the complete command:

docker run -d \
  --name my-nginx \
  -p 8080:80 \
  -v /app/disks/Sites:/usr/share/nginx/html \
  nginx:latest

4. RoqueOS will automatically parse the command and create the container with all configurations.

3. Import via Docker Compose

For more complex multi-service configurations:

1. Click + New Container
2. Select the Docker Compose tab
3. Paste your docker-compose.yml content
4. RoqueOS will create and start all defined services

4. Manual Creation

For full control over all parameters:

1. Click + New Container → Manual tab
2. Configure each field: Image, Name, Ports, Volumes, Environment Variables, Restart Policy

Managing Containers

Installed Containers Panel

The My Apps tab shows all containers with real-time status:

Action	Description
▶️ Start	Start a stopped container
⏹️ Stop	Stop a running container
🔄 Restart	Restart the container
🗑️ Remove	Remove the container and optionally its data
⚙️ Configure	Edit ports, volumes and environment variables

Real-Time Logs

View any container's logs in real-time with automatic streaming updates.

Container Terminal

Access any container's shell directly through RoqueOS — usually bash or sh.

---

Built-in Reverse Proxy

RoqueOS has a built-in reverse proxy that lets you access any container's web interface directly through the browser, without exposing additional ports.

1. After installing a container with a web interface (e.g., qBittorrent, Grafana, Portainer)
2. In the container list, click the 🌐 Open button
3. The container's web interface opens inside the Remote Browser

Tips

QUICK TIPS

• Containers with restart: unless-stopped restart automatically with the server
• Use volumes in /app/disks/ so data is visible in the File Manager
• The reverse proxy works even without Cloudflare Tunnels (local access)
• Monitor resources with the System Monitor to avoid overloading the server

SERVER RESOURCES

Each container consumes server RAM and CPU. Monitor resource usage and remove unused containers. For servers with less than 4 GB of RAM, limit yourself to 3-5 lightweight containers.
