docker

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

• List all Docker containers (running and stopped):

docker ps {{[-a|--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 an interactive tty with Bourne shell (sh) inside a running container:

docker exec {{[-it|--interactive --tty]}} {{container_name}} {{sh}}

• Remove stopped containers:

docker rm {{container1 container2 ...}}

• Fetch and follow the logs of a container:

docker logs {{[-f|--follow]}} {{container_name}}
