# Docker App Manager
[](https://github.com/docker-app-manager/docker-app-manager)
[](https://github.com/docker-app-manager/docker-app-manager/blob/master/LICENSE)
Install, run and manage DockerApps with a command
## First of all, what is a DockerApp? Did you just make that up?
Yes.
We needed a term for indicating a self-contained archive that contains all the information needed to run a certain application inside docker.
You can see a DockerApp as an adaptable Dockerfile that works perfectly in every host system.
Basically we turned this
```
docker run --volume=/home/federico/DockerApps/google-chrome/Volumes/Downloads:/home/dockerapp/Downloads --volume=/tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:rw --volume=/tmp/.dockerapp.google-chrome.xauth:/tmp/.dockerapp.google-chrome.xauth:rw --volume=/run/user/1000/pulse:/run/user/1000/pulse --env='XAUTHORITY=/tmp/.dockerapp.google-chrome.xauth' --env='DISPLAY=:0' dockerapp_google-chrome
```
into this
```
./dam run google-chrome
```
## Why?
Short answer: we got tired of having dozens of bash scripts for running our applications inside Docker
## How?
Just clone the repository
```
git clone https://github.com/docker-app-manager/docker-app-manager.git && \
cd docker-app-manager && \
npm install && \
chmod +x dam
```
Update the DockerApps list
```
./dam update
```
Install a DockerApp and go grab a beer because it will take some time
```
./dam install google-chrome
```
Run it
```
./dam run google-chrome
````
You can even pass arguments to it!
```
./dam run google-chrome www.reddit.com
```
You should also find a link to the DockerApp in your DE's applications list.
If everything works fine, celebrate with the beer that you have taken earlier
## Where i can find a list of DockerApps?
[This](https://github.com/docker-app-manager/docker-app-repository) is the official DockerApps repository but do not expect to find a lot of DockerApps at this stage of development.
[Here](https://github.com/docker-app-manager/docker-apps) You can see how a DockerApp is made
## Cool but can you please make some sort of documentation?
We will, I promise :sweat_smile:
