Docker Notes

Docker can be used to run and manage containers. Key commands include docker run to start a container from an image, docker pull to download an image, and docker ps to view running containers. Dockerfiles define images through instructions like FROM, RUN, and EXPOSE. Networks and volumes can be configured to connect containers.

DOCKER NOTES

=================================

Starting DOCKER
================
- install using the following script:
curl -sSL https://get.docker.com/ | sh
systemctl enable docker
systemctl start docker

To enable none root use:


-must be able to connect to docker.sock in /run/
-usermod -a -G docker <user>

pull docker images


===============================
docker pull <image name>
or
docker pull <image name>:<tag>
docker search <keyword>

start image/restart
==========================
docker run <image>:<tag> <application> <values>
docker run -d <image:tag> <function such as bin/bash> (run a function in detached
mode)
docker run -d --name=<name for container> <image:tage> (names must be unique)
docker restart <name or id> (restarts a container)
docker start <id or name> (starts a stopped container)

detail on image
=============================
docker inspect <image>

docker containers running


=============================
docker ps (shows running containers)
docker ps -a (shows all containers run including containers no longer running)

information on containers running/stopped


==============================================
docker inspect <name or ID>

connect to a container
=======================================
docker run -it centos:latest /bin/bash (logs into interactive mode on current
terminal in bash)

Stop a container
=======================================
docker stop <id or name> (stops a docker container)

Attach to a container
=======================================
docker attach <conatiner name> (attach joins the container process so exitting can
kill the container)
docker exec <command> (executes something in a container without affecting process
started during container instantiation)
e.g. docker exec -it LifeCycle1 /bin/bash

remove image
========================================
docker rmi <repositor:tag or imageid> (will error if stopped or running containers
with this image exist)
docker rmi -f <repositor:tag or imageid> (forces a remove but runnign containers
will continue to run as they have the base image)
docker rm <container id or name> (removes container completely)
docker rm `docker ps -a -q` (removes all non running containers)

redirect port
==========================================
docker run -d --name=<name> -P <image:tag>
docker run -d --name=<name> -p 8080:80 <image:tag>

docker volume
============================================
docker run -d --name=<name> -p <port external>:<port internal> -v <mount a host
directory>:<container directory>

docker container with DNS settings


============================================
docker run -it --dns=8.8.8.8 --dns-search="mydomain.local" --name="mycontainer3" -v
/local_vol -v /home/tcox/docker/mydata:/remote_vol docker.io/ubuntu:latest
/bin/bash

dockerfile
===========================================
based off docker image
usually named Dockerfile

Format:

FROM debian:stable
MAINTAINER test123 <[email protected]>

RUN apt-get update


RUN apt-get upgrade

ENV MYVALUE myvalue

EXPOSE 80 (exposes port for this image)

CMD ["/usr/sbin.apache2ctl", "-D","FOREGROUND] (runs a comand with given


flags and variables)
(preference should be to group commands with && or || where possible)

docker build -t <owner>/<name> . (the . says to pull from local director)


docker build -t <owner>/<name> < <location of file>

docker logs
==========================
docker logs <uuid or name>

DOCKER FILE DIRECTIVES


====================================
FROM needs to go first
MAINTAINER is next
RUN command (i.e. useradd -ms /bin/bash user)
USER user (creates a user)
docker exec -u 0 -it sad_jones /bin/bash (allows you to connect as root without
setting a password)
Changing USER will change all RUN commands after this point to run as if that user
executed the commands
ENV <VARIABLE> <VALUE> (system wide variable)
CMD "function" "variable" (runs on instantiation of container i.e on first run)
ENTRYPOINT <function> <variables> (runs at start even if something else is
specified at run command)
-P can't be used without exposed ports. -p is allowed as they require specific
knowledge of the container service
EXPOSE <port number> (exposes ports allowing for -P auto assignment)
you can mount an image using -v /mydata (creates a volume on the container)
connect to a host dfirectory using -v <hostdirectory>:<container directory> (you
can't do this in a dockerfile)

Docker Network
====================================
docker network ls (shows host networks)
docker network inspect <network id> (show information about the network)
docker network create --subnet 10.1.0.0/24 --gateway 10.1.0.1 mybridge01
docker network rm mybridge01
docker network create --subnet 10.2.0.0/16 --gateway 10.2.0.1 --ip-
range=10.2.4.0/24 --driver=bridge --label=host4network bridge04
docker run -it --name nettest1 --net bridge04 centos:latest /bin/bash
docker run -it --name nettest2 --net bridge04 --ip 10.2.4.100 centos:latest
/bin/bash

Docker Inspect Container processes


=========================================
docker top <container id or name> (shows top for the instant it is run)
docker exec -i -t frosty_wescoff /bin/bash (allows you to attach without closign
container on exit)
docker stats <container id/name> (shows live stats of a container)

Docker Container Management


=========================================
systemctl stop docker.service
rm -rf *
systemctl start docker.service

Docker Ports Exposure


==================================
docker run -itd -p 127.0.0.1:8081:80 nginx:latest

Docker Env VARIABLEs


==================================
docker run -itd -p 127.0.0.1:8081:80 -e JAVA_HOME=/opt/java nginx:latest

docker rename
---------------------------------
docker rename <old name or id> <new name>
Docker events
=============================
docker events --since '<time such as 1h>'
docker events (shows events as they happen)
docker events --filter <opttions include
container/event/images/labe/type/network/daemon>
eg docker events --filter event=attach

Docker Images Saving and Loading


====================================
docker commit practical_northcutt centos:mine (creates a new image with
centos:mine)
docker save -o centos.latest.tar centos:latest
docker save --output centos.latest.tar centos:latest
docker load --input centos.latest.tar

Docker history
=========================
docker history <image name>:<id>
docker history --quiet --no-trunc <image name>:<id> (shows the sha key for the
image)

docker tag
=========================
docker tag <image id or name and tag> <image name>:<new tag>

docker hub
==================
docker login
docker logout
docker push <name + tag or id>

create a bridge for docker


==============================
ip link br10 type bridge
ip addr add 10.100.10.1/23
ip link set br10 up
