apt-cache policy docker-ce
# see output similar
sudo apt-get install -y docker-ce
sudo systemctl status docker

Docker installed and running. If we run :

docker

Vim

docker [option] [command] [arguments]

hello-world is default test application :

Vim
1
docker run hello-world

We can search for images on Docker Hub by using docker command, to search foo we will run:

Vim
1
docker search foo

Docker Hub will return a list of all images when searched with valid name. We can download foo in this way :

Vim
1
docker pull foo

then run a container using it:

Vim
1
docker run foo

To see the images that have been downloaded :

Vim
1
docker images

Let us go ahead with foo example Docker Image. If we combine -i and -t we will get interactive shell access into the container as root:

Vim

docker run -it ubuntu
