Docker

Docker Documentation. To learn what Docker is, the official Docker Overview is an excellent resource.

Containers

# list
docker ps -a

# list running
docker ps --filter status=running

# stop all
docker stop $(docker ps -a -q)

# remove all
docker rm $(docker ps -a -q)

# remove
docker rm [CONTAINER ID]

# remove associated data volumes
docker rm -v [CONTAINER ID]

# logs
docker logs [CONTAINER ID]

# bash
docker exec -it [CONTAINER ID] /bin/bash

# shell
docker exec -it [CONTAINER ID] sh

You can substitute the container name for the id. e.g., docker logs determined_kapitsa

Images

# list
docker images

# remove image
docker rmi [IMAGE ID]

# remove dangling images
docker rmi $(docker images -q -f dangling=true)

# remove all images
docker rmi $(docker images -a -q)

# save image
docker save -o myimage.tar myimage:latest

# load image into docker
docker load -i myimage.tar

Docker save / load handy for deploying an image build to a server. e.g., copy the image .tar file to server using scp and then load it into Docker.

Volumes

# list
docker volume ls

# remove volume
docker volume rm [VOLUME NAME]

# remove all volumes
docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -q)

# list dangling volumes
docker volume ls -f dangling=true

# remove dangling volumes (1.13+)
docker volume prune

System

# docker disk usage
docker system df

# system-wide info
docker system info

# real time server events
docker system events

# removes
# - all stopped containers
# - all networks not used by at least one container
# - all dangling images
# - all build cache
docker system prune

Docker Compose

# builds, (re)creates, starts,
# and attaches to containers for a service
docker-compose up

# use detached mode flag (--detach)
docker-compose up -d

# stops containers and removes containers,
# networks, volumes, and images created by up
docker-compose down

# compose file removed or renamed containers
# use --remove-orphans flag to clean it up
docker-compose down --remove-orphans

# shell access to any container
docker-compose exec [SERVICE] sh

# using user www-data (82) for Nginx and PHP containers
docker-compose exec --user=82 php sh

Dockerfile

To build an image, a text file that list instructions required to create the Docker image is needed. This file is called a Dockerfile. Here is an example of a simple Dockerfile for a Nginx web server. The first line, FROM nginx is the base image that this image will be built upon. Each line containing the RUN, COPY, ADD instruction create a layer that is saved as a delta (to save space). For more info, docs.docker.com/develop/develop-images/dockerfile_best-practices.

# use official nginx image (https://hub.docker.com/_/nginx)
# as base layer for the new image
FROM nginx

# copy files and folders from `website` directory
# into `/usr/share/nginx/html/` directory
COPY ./website/ /usr/share/nginx/html/

# copy `nginx.conf` file into `/etc/nginx/` directory
COPY ./nginx.conf /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
