Docker

Images

Build image from Dockerfile, skip cache, with name and tag:

docker build --no-cache -t [NAME]:[TAG] [PATH TO DOCKERFILE]

Pull image from Docker Hub:

docker pull [REMOTE IMAGE NAME]

List all local images:

docker images

Inspect:

docker inspect [IMAGE NAME|ID]

History:

docker history [IMAGE NAME|ID]

Delete:

docker rmi [IMAGE NAME|ID]

Containers

Create container from image and start it backgrounded with mapped port (necessary for OSX) and mounted directory:

docker run -d -p [HOST PORT]:[CONTAINER PORT] --mount type=bind,source=[HOST DIR PATH],target=[CONTAINER DIR PATH] [IMAGE NAME|ID]

List containers:

docker ps # running containers
docker ps -a # all containers including stopped
docker ps --format "{{.Names}}" # running containers by name
docker ps -q # running containers by id

Bash shell for a running container:

docker exec -it [CONTAINER NAME|ID] bash

Start/stop/tail container:

docker start [CONTAINER NAME|ID]
docker stop [CONTAINER NAME|ID]
docker logs -f --tail 100 [CONTAINER NAME|ID] # stream logs of container starting 100 from the end

Delete:

docker rm [CONTAINER NAME|ID]

Run an image in the background:

docker run -[i|t] -d centos # run without foreground shell
docker run -it -d centos # run with foreground shell
docker run --entrypoint "/bin/sh" -it alpine/git # Alpine requires this for some reason...
