This topic lists and describes the Dockerfile.nojava file from the Docker demonstration for the Enterprise Developer base image. The Dockerfile is listed in its entirety and a following table describes the various Dockerfile commands. The line numbers in the listings of the Dockerfile have been added to aid readability. They are not present in the supplied Dockerfile.

The commands on the lines in this Dockerfile are as follows:

Lines Description
003 - 004 Specifies that the base image to use is the official Docker image for .NET Framework on Windows Server 2016 Server Core.
011 - 016 Define build arguments passed by the docker build command:
  • PRODUCT_VERSION. Indicates the version of Enterprise Developer that this Dockerfile is supplied with.
  • MFLICFILE. Specifies the name of the license file to use for Enterprise Developer.
  • ACCEPT_CONTAINER_EULA. Indicates acceptance of the terms laid out in the license agreement. The default setting of "no" means that you must modify this in order to indicate that you accept the terms of the license agreement.
  • SETUP_EXE. Specifies the name of the Enterprise Developer installation file. The default setting is the name of the file supplied with Enterprise Developer.
  • TOOLS_LOC. Specifies the folder into which Enterprise Developer will be installed.
  • TMP_INST_DIR. Specifies a temporary directory to be used while building the image. It is deleted when it is no longer needed.
Note: Unlike Dockerfile and Dockerfile.oraclejava, Dockerfile.nojava does not need to define any Java-related arguments.
018 - 022 Specify the metadata labels for the image that will be created. These labels can be queried using the docker inspect command.
Note: Unlike Dockerfile and Dockerfile.oraclejava, Dockerfile.nojava does not need to include an entry for com.microfocus.third_parties.java.
025 - 026 Create environment variables to be used in this Dockerfile:
  • TOOLS_LOC is copied from the build argument defined previously.
  • RMT_DIR specifies the location of the COBOL licensing management software. This is installed when you install Enterprise Developer.
Note: Unlike Dockerfile and Dockerfile.oraclejava, Dockerfile.nojava does not need to define any Java-related arguments.
029 Specifies that the shell to be used for subsequent instructions is ["cmd", "/S", "/C"].

This is the default for Dockerfiles on Windows but needs to be specified explicitly here because the base image for this Dockerfile is a Microsoft .NET Framework "-build" image, and using that image causes PowerShell to be used as the shell.

032 - 033 Copies the Enterprise Developer installation file into the temporary folder and the Enterprise Developer license file into the folder where Enterprise Developer is to be installed.
036 - 039 Run a series of concatenated Windows commands to:
  1. Set some environment variables based on the settings of build arguments.
  2. Run the Enterprise Developer installation file specifying parameters to install it silently, into the required directory, creating a log file, and indicating that you have accepted the terms laid out in the license agreement.
042 - 043 Runs a series of concatenated Windows commands to search the Enterprise Developer installation log file for text indicating that the installation failed. If any such text is found no further processing takes place.
046 - 049 Runs a series of concatenated Windows commands to license Enterprise Developer.
052 - 053 Runs a series of concatenated Windows commands to delete the Enterprise Developer installation file and the temporary directory that was used to contain it.
056 Sets the Docker working directory to be the directory into which Enterprise Developer was installed.
