Is your question not already answered in the FAQ?

  • [x] I made sure the question is not listed in the FAQ.

Is this a general question and not a technical issue?

Question

Great project, thanks for generosity. I ran the docker on Debian 12, smooth, fast, a beauty! I want to install PowerBi, how can I do it? I thought of creating a Dockerfile, and orchestrating the container with docker compose not docker-compose which now is deprecated. What do you think,. thanks again and have a great weekend!!!

See https://github.com/dockur/windows?tab=readme-ov-file#how-do-i-run-a-script-after-installation for a way to install software automaticly.

As an example for an install.bat, I'm using chocolatey (https://chocolatey.org) to start an unattended installation of my desired packages:

powershell -command Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1" -OutFile $env:temp\install.ps1
powershell -executionpolicy unrestricted -command Unblock-File $env:temp\install.ps1 ; powershell -command $env:temp\install.ps1
c:\ProgramData\chocolatey\bin\choco install --yes powerbi

(Beware of line 2, do not split it at the semicolon, the Unblock-File only works in that line.)

You can of course repeat the choco install line and install more than just PowerBI. There is a whole lot of available packages, see https://community.chocolatey.org/packages
