Any plans on generating a Windows Docker Image? about dependency-track HOT 2 OPEN

No plans to offer a Windows container image yet.

It's not that we are strictly against it, it's more that we didn't see the need so far (to be honest you're the first to ever ask about it). This also means we haven't done any research into how well it would work with GitHub Actions, how much our existing Dockerfiles need to be modified for it to work, etc.

Chances of getting this into the project would be highest if the community would propose a PR with the required changes.

On the JAR distribution being deprecated, that has mainly to do with us not having the capacity to support people in how to setup their JVM, file permissions, etc.

However, at least for the lifetime of DT v4.x, we'll continue to publish the JAR, and you'll continue to be able to download and use it.

Ok, then.

So there is no rush, since it'll be supported, at least for DT v.4.x. I'll try then to develop a Dockerfile for Windows, I'm not much into Docker image creation, but let's try.

I'll be glad if someone gives me a piece of advice or some info for where to start at. :)
