Docker Commands

Warning: This post still needs to be edited properly. Currently it only acts as a placeholder for copy-pasting purposes. But enjoy!

Search image on Docker Hub

docker search ubuntu  

List images and pull if needed

docker images  

docker pull centos/centos:6.5  

docker run centos:6.5 /bin/bash  

List running containers

docker ps  

List running and exited containers

docker ps -a  

Remove image

docker rmi IMG_NAME  

Remove image force

docker rmi -f IMG_NAME  

Build image

docker build -t="ghost" .  

docker run -t -i --privileged -v /vagrant/krigoo:/ora_install_dir -p 1521:1521 --name oracle ghost /bin/bash  

docker run -t -i --privileged -v /vagrant/krigoo:/ora_install_dir -p 1521:1521 -h docker_oracle --name oracle ghost /bin/bash  

bash-4.1# /ora_install_dir/docker/scripts/oracle_install.sh  

Build image - ignore cached containers

docker build --no-cache -t="ghost" .  

View logs from container

docker logs -f oracle  

Run Oracle container in daemon mode

docker run -d --privileged -p 1521:1521 -h docker_oracle --name oracle <host>:5000/oracle11r2 /start_oracle.sh  
# Notice that -h sets constant hostname for container, --name sets constant container_name, -p --> port forwarding

where <host> is the hostname or the ipadress

Docker commit

docker commit -m="changed oracle startup script" -a="krigoo Sabban" a6ab7b8bb321 ghost  

Docker push

docker tag 1eac2643c2d2 <host>:5000/oracle11r2  
docker push <host>:5000/oracle11r2  

where <host> is the hostname or the ipadress

Save docker image to tar ball and load image from tar

docker save <host>:5000/oracle11r2 > oracle11r2.tar  
docker load < oracle11r2.tar  

where <host> is the hostname or the ipadress

Copy saved image tar from repo and install it on local server

scp <host>:/root/krigoo/arc/oracle11r2.tar.gz /tmp  
docker load -i /tmp/oracle11r2.tar  

where <host> is the hostname or the ipadress

A quick way to recover space (cleaning old docker contaners)

docker rm `docker ps -a | grep Exited | awk '{print $1 }'`  
docker rmi `docker images -aq`  

Start docker as a daemon with http proxy settings inside

http_proxy=http://proxy-url:8080 /usr/bin/docker -d &  
http_proxy=http://proxy-url:8080 /usr/bin/docker -d &  

docker service

service docker start  

docker daemon

docker -d &  

Defaults

Default docker daemon parameters can be added in /etc/default/docker file.
For example to start docker with http_proxy settings add in /etc/default/docker:

export http_proxy="http://proxy-url:8080"  
export https_proxy="http://proxy-url:8080"  

Run container in interactive mode

docker run -t -i centos:centos6 /bin/bash  

Install Docker on RHel 6.5 and above (below 7...)

export http_proxy=http://proxy-url:8080  
export https_proxy=http://proxy-url:8080  

Both proxies must be set!!!

wget http://mirror.nonstop.co.il/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm  
rpm -Uvh epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm  
yum -y install docker-io  

Install Docker on Ubuntu 14.04

sudo apt-get update  
sudo apt-get install docker.io  
sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/docker.io /usr/local/bin/docker  
sudo sed -i '$acomplete -F _docker docker' /etc/bash_completion.d/docker.io  
source /etc/bash_completion.d/docker.io  
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 36A1D7869245C8950F966E92D8576A8BA88D21E9  
sudo sh -c "echo deb https://get.docker.com/ubuntu docker main\  
> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list"
sudo apt-get update  
sudo apt-get install lxc-docker  

Test by running bash

docker run -i -t ubuntu /bin/bash  

Add proxy settings in /etc/default/docker file and restart docker service

export http_proxy="http://proxy-url:8080/"  
export https_proxy="http://proxy-url:8080"  
service docker stop  
service docker start  

Docker.engine fails to start

If docker.engine fails to start with following message:
Device UUID and Filesystem verification failed
Execute following

rm -rf /var/lib/docker/devicemapper

Install private docker registry

• Create a directory for repository configuration file

mkdir -p /opt/docker-registry/config  

• Copy configsample.yml to /opt/docker-registry/config/config.yml and change STORAGEPATH option in local flavour
• Create a directory for repository data

mkdir -p /mnt/docker_registry  

• Start registry container

docker run -d -p 5000:5000 -v /opt/docker-registry/config:/registry-conf -e DOCKER_REGISTRY_CONFIG=/registry-conf/config.yml -e SETTINGS_FLAVOR=dev -v /mnt/docker_registry:/mnt/docker_registry -e STORAGE_PATH=/mnt/docker_registry registry  

• Check if it's running

docker ps -a  

• Should be as follows:

CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES  
474a513fe825 registry:latest "/bin/sh -c 'exec do 3 minutes ago Up 3 minutes 0.0.0.0:5000->5000/tcp determined_fermat  

Install private docker registry UI for searching and browsing the registry with UI

docker run -d -p 8081:8080 -e REG1=http://<host>:5000/v1/ atcol/docker-registry-ui  

where <host> is the hostname or the ipadress
And browse to :8081 to list and search images in local docker registry
