How to install Docker and run images on Ubuntu 21.04
To Install Docker and Run Images on Ubuntu 21.04
Introduction:
Docker is an application that simplifies the process of managing applications, as it provides OS-level virtualization to deliver software in packages called containers. Containers are isolated and contain their own software.
Installation Procedure:
Step 1: Check the OS version by using the following command
linuxhelp@linuxhelp:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 21.04
Release: 21.04
Codename: hirsute
Step 2: Login as root user by using the following command
linuxhelp@linuxhelp:~$ sudo -s
[sudo] password for linuxhelp:
Step 3: Changing to the home directory
root@linuxhelp:/home/linuxhelp# cd ~
Step 4: Updating the packages
root@linuxhelp:~# apt update

Step 6: Adding GPG key for Docker repo
root@linuxhelp:~# curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | apt-key add -
Warning: apt-key is deprecated. Manage keyring files in trusted.gpg.d instead (see apt-key(8)).
OK
Step 7: Adding Docker repo to APT resource
root@linuxhelp:~# add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu focal stable"

Step 10: Access and Download images from Docker Hub
root@linuxhelp:~# docker run hello-world
Unable to find image 'hello-world:latest' locally
latest: Pulling from library/hello-world
2db29710123e: Pull complete
Digest: sha256:37a0b92b08d4919615c3ee023f7ddb068d12b8387475d64c622ac30f45c29c51
Status: Downloaded newer image for hello-world:latest
Hello from Docker!
This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly.
To generate this message, Docker took the following steps:
1. The Docker client contacted the Docker daemon.
2. The Docker daemon pulled the "hello-world" image from the Docker Hub.
(amd64)
3. The Docker daemon created a new container from that image which runs the
executable that produces the output you are currently reading.
4. The Docker daemon streamed that output to the Docker client, which sent it
to your terminal.
To try something more ambitious, you can run an Ubuntu container with:
$ docker run -it ubuntu bash
