docker

Manage Docker containers and images. Some subcommands such as docker run have their own usage documentation. More information: https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/cli/.

• List all Docker containers (running and stopped):

docker ps --all

• Start a container from an image, with a custom name:

docker run --name {{container_name}} {{image}}

• Start or stop an existing container:

docker {{start|stop}} {{container_name}}

• Pull an image from a Docker registry:

docker pull {{image}}

• Display the list of already downloaded images:

docker images

• Open a shell inside a running container:

docker exec -it {{container_name}} {{sh}}

• Remove a stopped container:

docker rm {{container_name}}

• Fetch and follow the logs of a container:

docker logs -f {{container_name}}
