You can run the Azure Cosmos DB Emulator on a Windows Docker container. See GitHub for the Dockerfile and more information. Currently, the emulator does not work on Docker for Oracle Linux. Use the following instructions to run the emulator on Docker for Windows:

  1. After you have Docker for Windows installed, switch to Windows containers by right-clicking the Docker icon on the toolbar and selecting Switch to Windows containers.

  2. Next, pull the emulator image from Docker Hub by running the following command from your favorite shell.

    docker pull mcr.microsoft.com/cosmosdb/windows/azure-cosmos-emulator

  3. To start the image, run the following commands depending on the command line or the PowerShell environment:

    
md %LOCALAPPDATA%\CosmosDBEmulator\bind-mount

docker run --name azure-cosmosdb-emulator --memory 2GB --mount "type=bind,source=%LOCALAPPDATA%\CosmosDBEmulator\bind-mount,destination=C:\CosmosDB.Emulator\bind-mount" --interactive --tty -p 8081:8081 -p 8900:8900 -p 8901:8901 -p 8902:8902 -p 10250:10250 -p 10251:10251 -p 10252:10252 -p 10253:10253 -p 10254:10254 -p 10255:10255 -p 10256:10256 -p 10350:10350 mcr.microsoft.com/cosmosdb/windows/azure-cosmos-emulator

    Windows based Docker images might not be generally compatible with every Windows host OS. For instance, the default Azure Cosmos DB Emulator image is only compatible with Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016. If you need an image that is compatible with Windows Server 2019, run the following command instead:

    docker run --name azure-cosmosdb-emulator --memory 2GB --mount "type=bind,source=%hostDirectory%,destination=C:\CosmosDB.Emulator\bind-mount" --interactive --tty -p 8081:8081 -p 8900:8900 -p 8901:8901 -p 8902:8902 -p 10250:10250 -p 10251:10251 -p 10252:10252 -p 10253:10253 -p 10254:10254 -p 10255:10255 -p 10256:10256 -p 10350:10350 mcr.microsoft.com/cosmosdb/winsrv2019/azure-cosmos-emulator:latest

    Note

    When executing the docker run command, if you see a port conflict error (that is if the specified port is already in use), pass a custom port by altering the port numbers. For example, you can change the "-p 8081:8081" parameter to "-p 443:8081"

  4. Now use the emulator endpoint and primary key from the response and import the TLS/SSL certificate into your host. To import the TLS/SSL certificate, run the following steps from an admin command prompt:

    cd  %LOCALAPPDATA%\CosmosDBEmulator\bind-mount
powershell .\importcert.ps1

  5. If you close the interactive shell after the emulator has started, it will shut down the emulator's container. To reopen the data explorer, navigate to the following URL in your browser. The emulator endpoint is provided in the response message shown above.

    https://<emulator endpoint provided in response>/_explorer/index.html

If you have a .NET client application running on a Linux docker container and if you are running Azure Cosmos DB Emulator on a host machine, use the instructions in the next section to import the certificate into the Linux docker container.

Regenerate the emulator certificates

When running the emulator in a Docker container, the certificates associated with the emulator are regenerated every time you stop and restart the respective container. Because of that you have to re-import the certificates after each container start. To work around this limitation, you can use a Docker compose file to bind the Docker container to a particular IP address and a container image.

For example, you can use the following configuration within the Docker compose file, make sure to format it per your requirement:

version: '2.4' # Do not upgrade to 3.x yet, unless you plan to use swarm/docker stack: https://github.com/docker/compose/issues/4513

networks:
  default:
    external: false
    ipam:
      driver: default
      config:
        - subnet: "172.16.238.0/24"

services:

  # First create a directory that will hold the emulator traces and certificate to be imported
  # set hostDirectory=C:\emulator\bind-mount
  # mkdir %hostDirectory%

  cosmosdb:
    container_name: "azurecosmosemulator"
    hostname: "azurecosmosemulator"
    image: 'mcr.microsoft.com/cosmosdb/windows/azure-cosmos-emulator'
    platform: windows
    tty: true
    mem_limit: 3GB
    ports:
        - '8081:8081'
        - '8900:8900'
        - '8901:8901'
        - '8902:8902'
        - '10250:10250'
        - '10251:10251'
        - '10252:10252'
        - '10253:10253'
        - '10254:10254'
        - '10255:10255'
        - '10256:10256'
        - '10350:10350'
    networks:
      default:
        ipv4_address: 172.16.238.246
    volumes:
        - '${hostDirectory}:C:\CosmosDB.Emulator\bind-mount'
