bollard

What problem does it solve?

Interacting with the Docker Engine from Rust can be verbose and error-prone; Bollard provides an ergonomic async API to manage containers, images, networks, and volumes.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Async Rust Docker API client for core operations (containers, images, networks, volumes) with built-in error handling.
• Practical patterns for creating, starting, stopping, listing, pulling images, and handling common Docker errors in Rust.
• Use cases include building CLI tools, automation scripts, and orchestration utilities that require robust Docker control.

Quick Start

Start by creating a Rust project, add bollard as a dependency, and initialize a Docker client to begin managing your containers.
