run Usage: run [options] [-e KEY=VAL...] SERVICE [COMMAND] [ARGS...] Options: -d Detached mode: Run container in the background, print new container name. --name NAME Assign a name to the container --entrypoint CMD Override the entrypoint of the image. -e KEY=VAL Set an environment variable (can be used multiple times) -u, --user="" Run as specified username or uid --no-deps Don't start linked services.

Splunk logging driver The splunk logging driver sends container logs to HTTP Event Collector in Splunk Enterprise and Splunk Cloud. Usage You can configure the default logging driver by passing the --log-driver option to the Docker daemon: docker daemon --log-driver=splunk You can set the logging driver for a specific container by using the --log-driver option to docker run: docker run --log-driver=splunk ... Splunk options You can use the --log-opt NAME=VALUE flag to specify these additional

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) If you don’t see your question here, feel free to submit new ones to docs@docker.com. Or, you can fork the repo and contribute them yourself by editing the documentation sources. How much does Engine cost? Docker Engine is 100% free. It is open source, so you can use it without paying. What open source license are you using? We are using the Apache License Version 2.0, see it here: https://github.com/docker/docker/blob/master/LICENSE Does Docker run on Mac OS X

Amazon CloudWatch Logs logging driver The awslogs logging driver sends container logs to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Log entries can be retrieved through the AWS Management Console or the AWS SDKs and Command Line Tools. Usage You can configure the default logging driver by passing the --log-driver option to the Docker daemon: docker daemon --log-driver=awslogs You can set the logging driver for a specific container by using the --log-driver option to docker run: docker run --log-driver=awslogs ..

Swarm — A Docker-native clustering system The swarm command runs a Swarm container on a Docker Engine host and performs the task specified by the required subcommand, COMMAND. Use swarm with the following syntax: $ docker run swarm [OPTIONS] COMMAND [arg...] For example, you use swarm with the manage subcommand to create a Swarm manager in a high-availability cluster with other managers: $ docker run -d -p 4000:4000 swarm manage -H :4000 --replication --advertise 172.30.0.161:4000 consul://172

Provision a Swarm cluster with Docker Machine You can use Docker Machine to provision a Docker Swarm cluster. Machine is the Docker provisioning tool. Machine provisions the hosts, installs Docker Engine on them, and then configures the Docker CLI client. With Machine’s Swarm options, you can also quickly configure a Swarm cluster as part of this provisioning. This page explains the commands you need to provision a basic Swarm cluster on a local Mac or Windows computer using Machine. Once you u

network create Usage: docker network create [OPTIONS] NETWORK-NAME Creates a new network with a name specified by the user --aux-address=map[] Auxiliary ipv4 or ipv6 addresses used by network driver -d --driver=DRIVER Driver to manage the Network bridge or overlay. The default is bridge. --gateway=[] ipv4 or ipv6 Gateway for the master subnet --help Print usage --internal Restricts external access to the network --ip-range=[]

Generic Create machines using an existing VM/Host with SSH. This is useful if you are using a provider that Machine does not support directly or if you would like to import an existing host to allow Docker Machine to manage. The driver will perform a list of tasks on create: If docker is not running on the host, it will be installed automatically. It will update the host packages (apt-get update, yum update…). It will generate certificates to secure the docker daemon. The docker daemon will be

IBM Softlayer Create machines on Softlayer. You need to generate an API key in the softlayer control panel. Retrieve your API key $ docker-machine create --driver softlayer --softlayer-user=user --softlayer-api-key=KEY --softlayer-domain=domain vm Options: --softlayer-memory: Memory for host in MB. --softlayer-disk-size: A value of 0 will set the SoftLayer default. --softlayer-user: required Username for your SoftLayer account, api key needs to match this user. --softlayer-api-key: require

Amazon Web Services Create machines on Amazon Web Services. To create machines on Amazon Web Services, you must supply two parameters: the AWS Access Key ID and the AWS Secret Access Key. Configuring credentials Before using the amazonec2 driver, ensure that you’ve configured credentials. AWS credential file One way to configure credentials is to use the standard credential file for Amazon AWS ~/.aws/credentials file, which might look like: [default] aws_access_key_id = AKID1234567890 aws_secre
