Docker Service Manager 1.2.3 API

Docker Service Manager API

REST API for managing and monitoring Docker containers.

Overview

This API exposes endpoints to start, stop, inspect, and monitor Docker containers. It is designed as a backend service and does not provide a user interface.

Architecture

The application follows a layered architecture:

  • Resource layer – REST endpoints and request handling
  • Service layer – business logic and Docker interaction
  • Configuration & security – application setup and access control

Package Structure

The main packages are organized as follows:

  • *.resource – REST controllers
  • *.service – core application logic
  • *.dto – data transfer objects
  • *.security – authentication and authorization
  • *.config – application configuration

Getting Started

Begin by exploring the resource package to see the available REST endpoints. Each endpoint is documented with request and response models.
