1) Images
with aufs driver, images are stored under /var/lib/docker/aufs/diff
list :
docker images
delete :
docker rmi 123456abcdef
delete all images :
docker rmi $(docker images -q)
There are two ways to create a Docker image:
• Via the docker commit command
• Via the docker build command with a Dockerfile
RUN instruction will execute any commands in a new layer on top of the current image and commit the results.
CMD is to provide defaults for an executing container.
ENTRYPOINT to set fairly stable default commands and arguments and then use either form of CMD to set additional defaults that are more likely to be changed.
ADD instruction copies new files, directories or remote file URLs from <src> and adds them to the filesystem of the container at the path <dest>.
COPY instruction copies new files or directories from <src> and adds them to the filesystem of the container at the path <dest>.
EXPOSE opens a port for linked containers.
FROM base image to use for the build.
USER sets the default user within the container.
VOLUME creates a shared volume that can be shared among containers or by the host machine.
WORKDIR sets the default working dir for the container.
ENV sets an environnement variable in the container.
2) containers
/var/lib/docker/containers
list :
docker ps
docker ps -a
delete all containers :
docker rm $(docker ps -a -q)
