![]() On the other hand, there are those who do have that particular I’ve been doing the same. Using this for production is a totally different story and you need to do a lot more research and soul-searching before using that option. This is a great way to use SQL Server at design time. There are ways around that (I’ll show you below) but I only know enough to be dangerous here. I’m just happy to have more options at my disposal as well as have the ability to share what I am learning work beyond the world of Windows developers.Ĭontainers are not stateful. While I am sitting in front of a MacBook typing this I’m by no means working towards abandoning my Windows development or Windows machines. The most lightweight way to host SQL Server on Linux is in a Docker container. So we are no longer limited to hosting it on Windows or Azure. My latest experiment was doing a big mashup taking advantage of the fact that there is now a Linux version of SQL Server. I have an article coming in MSDN Magazine and am planning more fun as well. Make sure you run the query in the database you want to delete.I’ve been having a lot of fun with the new mssql extension for Visual Studio Code. Now you can use the database you created or the AdventureWorks in your ASP.NET Core.Īnd if you want to delete a database, here’s the query that you need to run. Now you have the AdventureWorks in Azure Data Studio plus you can start creating your own database and tables. Click the Restore button.Ĭlick restore from. ![]() You’ll need that in the next command because that locates the directory where you will move the bak file in the container. Run docker ps to see all running containers the get the container ID. The good old AdventureWorks.īefore we proceed to restore, let’s move the AdventureWorks file first to the container’s file system. Let’s restore a sample database from Microsoft. Now use the Azure Data Studio and login to the database using the credentials in the docker-compose file. Step 4: Connect Azure Data Studio to SQL Server Container ![]() Here’s where you can install it.Īzure Data Studio seems like Visual Studio Code. There’s no SSMS for Mac but you can use Azure Data Studio to manage SQL Server. ![]() Docker Client’s dashboard that shows the running containers Go to the dashboard of your Docker Client to see check if the container is running. It has to be inside a folder and you need to navigate to that folder using your terminal. Then go to your terminal and run the file. Step 2: Create a Docker Compose and run itĬopy and paste this into a docker-compose.yml file (you have to create this file) ![]() I prefer a Docker Compose over a Docker file. Then, with a single command, you create and start all the services from your configuration. With Compose, you use a YAML file to configure your application’s services. Compose is a tool for defining and running multi-container Docker applications. Here’s the guide on how to install Docker Client on Mac. If you’re new to Docker and containers, this is a good place to know what it is and what it is for. You need to use Docker in order to use SQL Server. In this quick article, I will do a demo of I you can use MS SQL Server for development. Are you wondering if you can use Microsoft SQL Server on Mac?Īre you also wondering if you can use SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS)? ![]()
