How do I install and use Docker on Debian?
Docker is a popular containerization technology that allows you to quickly and easily deploy applications in a secure and isolated environment. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install and use Docker on Debian.
Update the apt package index
Before we can install Docker, we need to update the apt package index. To do this, run the following command:
sudo apt-get updateInstall Docker
Once the package index is updated, we can install Docker. To do this, run the following command:
sudo apt-get install docker-ceStart and Automatically Launch Docker
Once Docker is installed, we need to start the Docker service. To do this, run the following command:
sudo systemctl start dockerWe can also configure Docker to automatically start when the system boots. To do this, run the following command:
sudo systemctl enable dockerVerify the Docker Installation
Once Docker is installed and running, we can verify the installation by running the following command:
docker run hello-worldUse Docker
Now that Docker is installed and running, we can start using it. To do this, we need to create a Docker container. To do this, run the following command:
docker run -it ubuntu bashThis will create a new Ubuntu container and open a Bash shell inside the container. From here, you can run any command you want inside the container.
