## Creating docker containers on Windows
If you want to build/update/test docker container for Windows, you need to do this on a Windows machine. Here are the instructions to set up such a machine on GCP.
General hints:
* Do *not ever ever* use paths with white spaces in them.
* You need to [configure Internet Explorer to allow downloads](https://improveandrepeat.com/2018/03/internet-explorer-on-windows-server-enable-file-downloads/).
* Install Chrome, as Internet Explorer is a bit outdated.
* Install a nice IDE to edit Dockerfiles and scripts. [VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/Download) is a good option.
1. Pick a GCP Windows image with Desktop Support.
2. Use the "Server Manager" application to install the "features":
* Containers
* HyperV
3. Install git with the default options: https://git-scm.com/download/win
4. git clone https://github.com/google/llvm-premerge-checks.git
* Register your ssh keys on the windows machine on github if you intend to push changes.
5. Install docker: https://hub.docker.com/editions/community/docker-ce-desktop-windows
* You will need a DockerHub account to download the installer.
* Select "use Windows containers" during installation.
* Start the "Docker Desktop" application, it will set up the required services for you.
Check your installation by running "docker build ." in the `containers/agent_windows` folder.
