Launch Docker containers on Linux.
Instructions for installing Docker can be found on the manufacturer's site. For Debian / Ubuntu, I did the installation as follows.
Debian / Ubuntu
For a brand new Debian release, docker-ce may not yet be available as "stable", by adding edge test, docker-ce can still be installed:
sudo add-apt-repository \
"deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu \
$(lsb_release -cs) \
stable edge test"
Debian and Ubuntu have different sources here: For Ubuntu I had to use https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu instead of https://download.docker.com/linux/debian.
To remove the repository for Debian again, the following command can be used:
sudo add-apt-repository --remove \
"deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/debian \
$(lsb_release -cs) \
stable"
Docker-compose
Docker-compose allows multiple Docker containers to be stored in a common docker-compose.yml file, allowing them to be launched or upgraded together. Docker-compose can be added with the following commands:
sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.28.4/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
see: https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/
Instructions for the following platforms
For the following platforms, there is a corresponding Docker installation guide on the vendor site:
- Docker Desktop for Mac (macOS)
- Docker Desktop for Windows
- CentOS
