Simple Docker workflow – Quick start

In this tutorials, I am trying to cover the simple quickstart Docker workflow and for the example, I am creating Ubantu containee and using it to showcase this tutorial.

Step 1 – Download the Ubantu image container from the Docker Hub

# docker pull -a ubuntu

Step 2 – Run the ubuntu container and access to ther /bin/bash commands prompt

# docker run -it ubuntu /bin/bash

Step 3 – Stop the container

# docker stop container_id

How to get the container id?

# docker ps -a

Step 4: Start the container again?

# docker start container_id

Step 5: Exit the running container without stopping the container

# exit

Step 6: Login the running container for bash prompt

# sudo docker exec -i -t 2e56ad1705b1 /bin/bas
