Docker Cheatsheet
In this section you will find my notes on using Docker for the deployment of Git projects.
tip
You do not have to write out the CONTAINER_ID in full. The partial CONTAINER_ID specified need only uniquely identify the container. Given a container 'aa151b912448' and 'aa153cd14238', docker logs aa15 will not work, but docker logs aa151 will.
Containers
Deleting all containers
$ docker rm -f $(docker ps -a -q)
Docker for local services
Run a PostgreSQL container with specific credentials and mapped volume
docker run --name postgres --restart always -e POSTGRES_USER=admin -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=thepassword -p 5432:5432 -v /data/postgresql:/var/lib/postgresql/data -d postgres
Run a redis container in detach mode with a mapped volume
docker run --name redis --restart always -p 6379:6379 -v /data/redis:/data -d redis
