Description

This is my code
import (
"context"
"fmt"
"github.com/docker/cli/cli/connhelper"
"github.com/docker/docker/api/types"
"github.com/docker/docker/client"
"net/http"
)

func authentication() (cli *client.Client){

helper, err := connhelper.GetConnectionHelper("ssh://root@192.168.56.101:22")
if err != nil {
	fmt.Println("Unable helper"+err.Error())
}
httpClient := &http.Client{
	Transport: &http.Transport{
		DialContext: helper.Dialer,
	},
}

c, err := client.NewClientWithOpts(
	client.WithHTTPClient(httpClient),
	client.WithHost(helper.Host),
	client.WithDialContext(helper.Dialer),
)
if err != nil {
	fmt.Println("Unable to create docker client"+err.Error())
	return c
}

return c
}

func listImage()(images []types.ImageSummary) {
var cli *client.Client
//ctx := context.Background()
cli= authentication()
images, err := cli.ImageList(context.Background(), types.ImageListOptions{})
if err !=nil{
fmt.Println(err.Error())
return images
}
containers, err := cli.ContainerList(context.Background(), types.ContainerListOptions{})
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(containers)
}
for _, image := range images {
fmt.Println(image)
}
return images
}

The Docker configuration on my host looks like this :

/usr/lib/systemd/system/docker.service

### As you can see in the code Docker does not open the remote TCP connection port, that is because I understand that connHelper is using SSH connections to set up the CLI

I also have a question why do not need to enter the password
I use Windows development, Windows does not install Docker, connect to the remote server
I don't know what else I need to set or am I writing it wrong? Please give guidance thanks

Research direction

Start with the Go example using connhelper.GetConnectionHelper and compare it with the Docker systemd service configuration shown in the issue. Reproduce the SSH connection from the Windows development environment and capture the actual client or ImageList error. Done means the expected authentication and remote Docker connection behavior is documented or the underlying connection defect is isolated.
