General Docker Usage

A well organized guide to popular docker commands can be found here. For convenience, below are some commands to get you started. Note: You may need to add sudo before each command

List which docker machines are available locally

docker images

List running containers

docker ps

List all containers

docker ps -a

Get container IP address

docker inspect --format '{{ .NetworkSettings.IPAddress }}' <name>

Get a copy of public docker

docker pull <name>

Keep a container running at startup

docker run -itd <name>

Shutdown container

docker stop <name>

Resume container

docker start <name>

Delete container

docker rm <name>

Shell into a running container with either of the following:

docker exec -it <name> /bin/bash
docker attach <name>

Building and modifying the Bioconductor docker images

The BioC Dockerfiles are not directly edited. Instead, for each biocView, there is a common Dockerfile.in, from which two output files for release and devel files are generated by running the rake command. All the creation is controlled by the Rakefile, which will also take care if any of the dependencies (i.e. the *.in files) have changed.

E.g. the Dockerfile for the BioC development branch for core packages is created from src/core/Dockerfile.in and placed into out/devel_core/Dockerfile.
