I'm looking for a way to orchestrate Docker containers using JAVA 6. So I have the Docker images ready but I want to be able to start and stop and interact with them but I am limited to JAVA 6.
All the JAVA client libraries I've found so far instead of JAVA 7, but I can't use that yet.
Anyone have any ideas?
Many thanks
EVen though the java docker-clients compile with jdk7, you can try and change the target of maven-compiler-plugin to 1.6, and see if that is compatible.
See spotify/docker-client/pom.xml#L199 or docker-java/docker-java/pom.xml#L233
You would still compile with jdk 1.7, but the end result should be able to execute in a JDK6 environment (unless the sources depends on some specific 1.7 feature)
