Docker

Docker with jenkins is present in the jenkins

tip

You do not have to write out the CONTAINER_ID in full. The partial CONTAINER_ID specified need only uniquely identify the container. Given a container 'aa151b912448' and 'aa153cd14238', docker logs aa15 will not work, but docker logs aa151 will.

Build docker image with tag​

docker build -t node-app:0.1 .

Docker run and stop​

docker run -p 4000:80 --name my-app -d node-app:0.1
docker ps

docker logs [CONTAINER_ID]

Docker stop and remove all containers​

docker stop my-app && docker rm my-app
docker stop $(docker ps -q)
docker rm $(docker ps -aq)

Docker login to container​

docker exec -it <mycontainer> bash

Docker login to image​

docker run -it <image> bash

Docker login to image with entry point​

docker run -it --entrypoint bash <image>

Docker conatainer run with priviledge​

--privileged

Docker containers:​

docker container ls
# List all containers
docker ps
# Docker container already exited
docker ps -a

Docker images:​

docker images

Starting an interactive shell​

docker exec -it [CONTAINER_ID] bash

Stopping and removing containers​

docker stop $(docker ps -q)
docker rm $(docker ps -aq)

docker ps options:

  • -q: Only display numeric IDs
  • -a: Show all containers (default shows just running)

Inspecting container metadata​

docker inspect [CONTAINER_ID]

docker inspect --format='{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' [CONTAINER_ID]

Viewing container logs​

Typical command:

docker logs [CONTAINER_ID]

Follow log output for a specified duration:

docker logs -f --until=[TIME]

Docker compose logs

docker-compose logs --no-color --tail=1000 [service_name] > logs.txt

TIME can be a TIMESTAMP or relative (e.g. '10m' or '5s')

Docker and Github​

Deploy script​

This script assumes that the working directory contains a .git directory, Dockerfile and package.json. A .gitignore and a .dockerignore file may be useful too. It is also assumed that the project dependencies have been installed using npm install.

deploy.sh

IMAGE_NAME=""
VERSION="" # Can be left blank
CONTAINER_NAME=""
CONTAINER_PORT="" # To be mapped to HOST_PORT
HOST_PORT="" # The port clients will access

docker stop $CONTAINER_NAME # Stop the running container
docker system prune -af # Removes the container and all unused images
git pull origin master # Pulls latest source files and image
docker build -t $IMAGE_NAME .
docker run --name $CONTAINER_NAME -p $CONTAINER_PORT:$HOST_PORT -d $IMAGE_NAME:$VERSION

Before the script can be used, replace the following placeholders:

  • IMAGE_NAME : The name of your image.
  • VERSION : The version of your image. Can be left blank.
  • CONTAINER_NAME : The desired name of your container.
  • CONTAINER_PORT : The port of your container which your application is running on.
  • HOST_PORT : The host port your container port will be mapped to. This is the port that is exposed on the host system.

Resources​

AWS Docker Jenkins​

sudo yum install java-1.8.0 -y
sudo yum remove java-1.7.0-openjdk -y

Update the packages on your instance

[ec2-user ~]$ sudo yum update -y

Install Docker

[ec2-user ~]$ sudo yum install docker -y

Start the Docker Service

[ec2-user ~]$ sudo service docker start

Add the ec2-user to the docker group so you can execute Docker commands without using sudo.

[ec2-user ~]$ sudo usermod -a -G docker ec2-user
