Enough Docker

The team I’ve joined in September uses Docker to keep local versions of our database’s schema synced up with production.

Docker is one tough nail to learn, so I’m keeping my notes here.

  # login to a self-hosted registry
  docker login your_host:8000

  # pull images defined in docker-compose.yml
  docker-compose pull

  # run a specific image (-rm stands for remove container after run)
  docker-compose run --rm my_image_name

  # list running containers
  docker ps
  # list all containers
  docker ps -a

  # start a specific container
  docker-compose start my_container
  # stop a specific container
  docker-compose stop my_container

  # recreate a container in the background (daemon)
  docker-compose up -d
