Fedora Docker is supported on Fedora version 22 and 23. This page instructs you to install using Docker-managed release packages and installation mechanisms. Using these packages ensures you get the latest release of Docker. If you wish to install using Fedora-managed packages, consult your Fedora release documentation for information on Fedora’s Docker support. Prerequisites Docker requires a 64-bit installation regardless of your Fedora version. Also, your kernel must be 3.10 at minimum. To c

Get started with Docker Machine and a local VM Let’s take a look at using docker-machine for creating, using, and managing a Docker host inside of VirtualBox. Prerequisites Make sure you have the latest VirtualBox correctly installed on your system. If you used Toolbox for Mac or Windows to install Docker Machine, VirtualBox is automatically installed. If you used the Quickstart Terminal to launch your first machine and set your terminal environment to point to it, a default machine was automat

Understand the architecture Docker is an open platform for developing, shipping, and running applications. Docker is designed to deliver your applications faster. With Docker you can separate your applications from your infrastructure and treat your infrastructure like a managed application. Docker helps you ship code faster, test faster, deploy faster, and shorten the cycle between writing code and running code. Docker does this by combining kernel containerization features with workflows and

Docker and AUFS in practice AUFS was the first storage driver in use with Docker. As a result, it has a long and close history with Docker, is very stable, has a lot of real-world deployments, and has strong community support. AUFS has several features that make it a good choice for Docker. These features enable: Fast container startup times. Efficient use of storage. Efficient use of memory. Despite its capabilities and long history with Docker, some Linux distributions do not support AUFS.

Docker Remote API v1.20 1. Brief introduction The Remote API has replaced rcli. The daemon listens on unix:///var/run/docker.sock but you can Bind Docker to another host/port or a Unix socket. The API tends to be REST. However, for some complex commands, like attach or pull, the HTTP connection is hijacked to transport stdout, stdin and stderr. When the client API version is newer than the daemon’s, these calls return an HTTP 400 Bad Request error message. 2. Endpoints 2.1 Containers List con

How to get Docker Swarm You can create a Docker Swarm cluster using the swarm executable image from a container or using an executable swarm binary you install on your system. This page introduces the two methods and discusses their pros and cons. Create a cluster with an interactive container You can use the Docker Swarm official image to create a cluster. The image is built by Docker and updated regularly through an automated build. To use the image, you run it a container via the Engine dock

IPv6 with Docker The information in this section explains IPv6 with the Docker default bridge. This is a bridge network named bridge created automatically when you install Docker. As we are running out of IPv4 addresses the IETF has standardized an IPv4 successor, Internet Protocol Version 6 , in RFC 2460. Both protocols, IPv4 and IPv6, reside on layer 3 of the OSI model. How IPv6 works on Docker By default, the Docker server configures the container network for IPv4 only. You can enable IPv4/I

env Set environment variables to dictate that docker should run a command against a particular machine. $ docker-machine env --help Usage: docker-machine env [OPTIONS] [arg...] Display the commands to set up the environment for the Docker client Description: Argument is a machine name. Options: --swarm Display the Swarm config instead of the Docker daemon --shell Force environment to be configured for a specified shell: [fish, cmd, powershell], default is sh/bash --unset, -u

export Usage: docker export [OPTIONS] CONTAINER Export the contents of a container's filesystem as a tar archive --help Print usage -o, --output="" Write to a file, instead of STDOUT The docker export command does not export the contents of volumes associated with the container. If a volume is mounted on top of an existing directory in the container, docker export will export the contents of the underlying directory, not the contents of the volume. Refer to Backup, restore

build Usage: build [options] [SERVICE...] Options: --force-rm Always remove intermediate containers. --no-cache Do not use cache when building the image. --pull Always attempt to pull a newer version of the image. Services are built once and then tagged as project_service, e.g., composetest_db. If you change a service’s Dockerfile or the contents of its build directory, run docker-compose build to rebuild it.
