Docker Workshop

• This workshop is intended for people who are familiar with Linux and running services like a web server, database, etc.

To make it and easier for everyone, and save us some time please prepare a couple of simple things beforehand. Coming unprepared can cause delays and you might miss the whole workshop because the internet is not fast enough for everyone to download the requirements.

1. Bring your Laptop - this is a workshop!
   It does not matter which operating system you have installed.

2. Install VirtualBox - we will use a VM. Please use latest version available.
   Download VirtualBox and the VM Extension Pack, and install both.

3. Install Vagrant. Download Vagrant and install it. Please use latest version available.

4. Setup CoreOS in Vagrant

   #!/bin/sh
   git clone https://github.com/coreos/coreos-vagrant
   cd coreos-vagrant
   cat <<-EOF > user-data
   coreos:
     units:
       - name: docker-tcp.socket
         command: start
         enable: true
           [Unit]
           Description=Docker Socket for the API
           [Socket]
           ListenStream=2375
           Service=docker.service
           BindIPv6Only=both
           [Install]
           WantedBy=sockets.target
   EOF
   vagrant up
   vagrant ssh -c "docker pull registry"

verify that everything works

Once the above step is complete, you can verify that the image registry has been downloaded by running:

vagrant ssh -c "docker images"

Output should look something like this -

REPOSITORY  TAG     IMAGE ID      CREATED     VIRTUAL SIZE
registry    latest  c55308716b36  5 days ago  418.6 MB

How can I verify that everything is setup properly?

the version is : Docker version 1.0.0, build 63fe64c
