Hi hope you are doing well, lets learn about “Docker installation on Ubuntu 20.04 Linux”, the Docker is the fastest growing technology in the IT market. Docker is the container technology.
So many industries are moving towards docker from the normal EC2 instances. It is PAAS (Platform as a Service), which uses a OS virtualisation to deliver software in packages called containers.
The containers are the bundle of the packages, library files, and some configuration files. It was first started in 2013 and developed by Docker, Inc.
So lets have the Setup of Docker CE on Ubuntu Linux Step by Step Guide.
Docker Installation on Ubuntu Linux.
STEP 1: Update the Repository for the Docker installation on Ubuntu 20.04 Linux.
So firstly we will update the repository and install some of packages with the apt command.
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl gnupg lsb-release
Let’s add the Docker’s official GPG key:
$ curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg
Now Update the repo and use cat command to check the added docker repo for installation in Ubuntu 20.04.
echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list
OUTPUT :
deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu focal stable
$ sudo apt update
Now update the repository for the installation of docker on Ubuntu.
STEP 2: Installation for Docker CE on Ubuntu 20.04 via apt command.
So, install docker-ce, docker-ce-cli and container.io packages in Ubuntu.
$ sudo apt install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io
Once the docker installation get’s completed , check the status of services for the docker and enable it after rebooting the System.
$ sudo systemctl status docker.service
So we have check the status for docker, and it is active running on the Ubuntu 20.04, so enable the service for docker at the time of booting.
$ sudo systemctl enable docker.service
STEP 3: Add the User in Docker Group.
Now lets add user “tastethelinux” into the docker group.
$ sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
“$USER” is the username tastethelinux, you can use whoami to check the username.
docker --version
OUTPUT:
Docker version 20.10.8, build 3967b7d
So then check version using docker command without sudo, you will get the version for the docker.
So lets check the installation with the docker info command, which gives the information about the Docker.
$ docker info
So we have successfully install Docker CE on Ubuntu 20.04, lets create a Container for the MongoDB.
STEP 4: Pull MongoDB Docker Image.
So here we will create a container for MongoDB on docker, let’s use the pull command to pull the MongoDB image first.
$ docker pull mongo
So we have pulled the images for mongo from the docker, Once it’s completed you can check the image by using “docker images”.
$ docker images
STEP 5: Run MongoDB Docker Container in Ubuntu linux.
Now let’s run the docker container by using docker run command.
$ docker run -d mongo
So we have successfully run the MongoDB Docker container in Ubuntu Linux, now if we have to verify the container is running or not use “docker ps” command.
$ docker ps
So we have done with the installation for docker on Ubuntu, also run the MongoDB Docker container. Now let’s Install Docker Compose in Ubuntu linux.
Docker Compose Installation on Ubuntu Linux.
So lets see the install docker compose on Ubuntu Linux, with the curl command.
$ sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.29.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
So, the above command will install docker compose in “/usr/local/bin” directory, now give the executable permission to the “docker-compose” script.
$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
Now lets create soft link for “docker-compose”, and check the docker compose version.
$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/docker-compose /usr/bin/docker-compose
$ docker-compose –version
OUTPUT:
docker-compose version 1.29.2, build 5becea4c
