Having a custom image would allow one to scale applications on-demand via orchestration (Kubernetes, Rancher, Kasm, etc) because they can be spun up in milliseconds straight from an image.<\/p>\n
MAIN STEPS<\/strong><\/p>\n There are additional instructions that can be added as needed, such as:<\/p>\n Note:<\/strong> INSTALL LATEST DOCKER FROM OFFICIAL REPOSITORY<\/strong><\/p>\n EXAMPLES<\/strong><\/p>\n Create a file with the name BUILD<\/strong><\/p>\n RUN<\/strong><\/p>\n RUN STAGE<\/strong><\/p>\n PUBLISHING IMAGES<\/strong><\/p>\n Images, aka Artifacts, can be published to a remote Registry for public or private (with access control) use.<\/p>\n The two most popular container repositories are Docker Hub<\/strong> and GitHub Container Registry<\/strong>. See the examples below for pushing images to both using GitHub Actions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n
Dockerfile<\/code>,<\/li>\n\n
FROM<\/code> to use a specific basic image.<\/li>\nRUN<\/code>\u00a0to execute commands during the image build process.<\/li>\nCOPY<\/code> \/ ADD<\/code> to copy files or directories to the image.<\/li>\nCMD<\/code> to specify the command that will be executed when a container is run from the image.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\ndocker build<\/code> and -t<\/code> to give it a name).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
ENV<\/code> to set environment variables in the image.<\/li>\nEXPOSE<\/code> to declare what ports the container will listen to at runtime.<\/li>\nUSER<\/code> is used to set the UID and\/or GID that the command, run by CMD<\/code>, should be executed as.<\/li>\nWORKDIR<\/code> defines the working directory for subsequent instructions, such as RUN<\/code> and CMD<\/code>.<\/li>\nVOLUME<\/code> creates a persistent volume in the image (to survive container restarts).<\/li>\nCOPY<\/code> and ADD<\/code> are not the same. Essentially, COPY<\/code> only copies local files and directories from the build context to the image. While ADD<\/code> also supports automatically extracting files from a compressed archive (such as a tar or zip file) and copying files from a remote URL.<\/p>\n
