My own Saltstack formula for installing docker: Amazon Linux 2, Almalinux 9, Ubuntu 20.04, Ubuntu 22.04. Ignore timestamps, code gets pushed automatically, use tags if you want reliability.

Docker Formula

This SaltStack formula provides an automated solution to install Docker on various Linux distributions and manage a dedicated docker user and group. Please ignore timestamps of code being uploaded. I schedule code pushes quite often. If you find this to be a pain, use checkout tags that I will be including.

Supported Distributions

• AlmaLinux 9
• Amazon Linux 2
• Ubuntu 22.04
• Ubuntu 20.04

Structure

• docker/init.sls: Main entry point.
• docker/install.sls: Handles the installation of Docker based on the operating system.
• docker/usergroup.sls: Manages the docker user and group, ensuring the user is a member of the group.

Local Usage

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/jarildson/docker-formula.git

2. Navigate to the directory:

cd docker-formula

3. Apply the state:

salt-call --local state.apply docker

Features

• Detects the specific OS and version for targeted installations.
• Removes potential conflicting packages like podman and buildah for AlmaLinux 9.
• Adds the required Docker repositories based on the OS.
• Installs Docker, ensuring the service is running post-installation.
• Creates a docker user and group. The user is only created after a successful Docker installation.

Notes

• Granting a user access to the docker group provides them the ability to manage Docker. This comes with potential security implications; ensure you understand the risks in your specific environment.
• Always test new changes in a safe, non-production environment before rolling them out broadly.
