Q

Dockerfile Layers - defined

A

A FROM instruction that tells Docker what the base image is
An ENV instruction to pass an environment variable
A RUN instruction to run some shell commands (for example, install-
dependent programs not available in the base image)
A CMD or an ENTRYPOINT instruction that tells Docker which executable to
run when a container is started

Q

Docker Engine

A

Docker Engine is the core part of Docker. Docker Engine is a client-server
application that provides the platform, the runtime, and the tooling for building
and managing Docker images, Docker containers, and more.

Q

RUN Example

A 
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get install foo
RUN apt-get install bar
RUN apt-get install baz
It’s better to wrap them in a single RUN command:
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
foo \
bar \
baz

Q

EXPOSE

A

The EXPOSE instruction tells Docker that the container listens for the specified
network ports at runtime

24
Q

LABEL

A

The LABEL instruction adds metadata to an image as a key/value pair.

25
Q

Data Persistence

A

Traditionally, VMs store persistent data, containers do, usually, not

26
Q

Strategies to persist data

A

mpfs mounts
Bind mounts
Volumes

27
Q

tmpfs Mounts

A

The directories mounted in tmpfs appear as a
mounted filesystem but are stored in memory, not to persistent storage such as a
disk drive.

28
Q

Bind Mounts

A

In bind mounts, the file/directory on the host machine is mounted into the
container.

29
Q

Bind Mount VS. Docker Volume

A

By contrast, when using a Docker volume, a new directory is created
within Docker’s storage directory on the Docker host and the contents of the
directory are managed by Docker

30
Q

Preferred flag for Mounting?

A

–mount

31
Q

Example of Mount

mounting host’s home directory, to a directory called ‘host-name’ within the container

A 
docker run -it --name mount-test --mount
type=bind,source="$HOME"
,target=/host-home ubuntu bash
docker run -it --name mount-test -v $HOME:/host-home
ubuntu bash
32
Q

Volumes

A

Docker volumes are the current recommended method of persisting data stored
in containers

33
Q

Volume Advantages

A

Volumes are easier to back up or transfer than bind mounts
Volumes work on both Linux and Windows containers
Volumes can be shared among multiple containers without problems

34
Q

Docker Volume Commands

A 
docker volume create
docker volume inspect
docker volume ls
docker volume prune
docker volume rm
35
Q

Example Volume command

A

docker volume create –name=nginx-volume

36
Q

Default Docker Network Drivers

A 
bridge
host
overlay
macvlan
none
37
Q

Bride Network

A

Allows for containers to communicate together

38
Q

Host Network

A

Connects containers to the Docker Host

39
Q

Overlay Network

A

Creates a network spanning multiple docker hosts

primarily used when a cluster of Docker hosts are setup in Swarm mode

40
Q

Macvlan Network

A

leverage the Linux kernel’s ability to assign multiple

logical addresses based on MAC to a single physical interface

41
Q

None Network

A

the container has no Network

42
Q

Docker Compose

A

Simplifies creating Containers for different needs

43
Q

Docker Compose file?

A

.yml

44
Q

Docker Compose File Versioning

A

1

  1. x
  2. x
45
Q

Services

A

Services is the first root key of the Compose YAML and is the configuration of
the container that needs to be created

46
Q

build

A

The build key contains the configuration options that are applied at build time.

47
Q

context

A

sets the context to build

48
Q

image

A

if present, will build the image and name/tag it

49
Q

environment/env_file

A

stores the keys and values for the build

50
Q

ports

A

specifies the ports that will be exposed to the port

51
Q

volumes

A

adds a named volume to the build

52
Q

depends_on

A

pulls dependency requirements

53
Q

Restart

A

key that provides the restart policy for the container

By default, set to “no”, never restart

54
Q

Docker Compose - build

A

reads the Compose file, scans for build keys
ie
docker-compose build

55
Q

Docker Compose - down

A 
stops the containers and will proceed to remove containers, volumes, networks
dockercompse down(?)
56
Q

Docker Compose - exec

A

lets you run ad hoc commands of any containers

57
Q

Docker Compose - command

A

docker-compose
