Built a Docker API community node for n8n (no Portainer required)

Built with n8n

I’ve been working on a Docker community node for n8n and just published v1.

Main idea was to keep it simple and automation-friendly instead of a huge all-in-one tool.

Current features:

  • List containers (with filters)

  • Get logs (stdout/stderr, clean + structured)

  • Start / Stop containers

  • Read-only vs full-control modes

It connects directly to the Docker API (local socket or TCP), so no Portainer required. Would really appreciate any feedback :folded_hands:.
