Docker bash, Container, Docker, shell Leave a Comment

In our previous docker tutorials your learned about how to Install Docker on CentOS or Install Docker on Debian based system. Also, write tutorials about how to create or delete docker containers. This tutorial will help you to get shell access to your running docker container.

#1. Using Docker Attach

You can get bash shell access in your docker container with attach command. But your docker container must be started with /bin/bash.
Use below syntax to get shell access of docker container.

$ sudo docker attach <CONTAINER ID/NAME>

For example, your docker container is running with id 76debad837d2 and name happy_tecadmin. Use one of the following commands with attach method.
Using Container ID:

$ sudo docker attach 76debad837d2

Using Container Name:

$ sudo docker attach happy_tecadmin

#2. Using Docker Exec

If docker container was not started with /bin/bash command. Then you can’t use attach command. Now, you need to use exec command to create bash in your container. Make sure you are using Docker version >= 1.3.
Use below syntax to get shell access of docker container.

$ sudo docker exec -it <CONTAINER ID/NAME> bash

For example, your docker container is running with id 76debad837d2 and name happy_tecadmin. Use one of the following commands with exec method.
Using Container ID:

$ sudo docker exec -it 76debad837d2  bash

Using Container Name:

$ sudo docker exec -it happy_tecadmin bash

In our previous tutorials you have learned about installation of Docker engine on CentOS/RHEL and Ubuntu operating system and pulled images from Docker hub. After that created containers with images. This tutorial will help you to export and import Docker images and move them between hosts.

List Docker Images

Fist list docker images on your system using below command.
root@tecadmin:~# docker images REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED VIRTUAL SIZE centos latest 2933d50b9f77 11 days ago 196.6 MB ubuntu latest 36248ae4a9ac 11 days ago 188 MB

Save or Archive Image

Now use the following command to save image repository named ubuntu (image id: 36248ae4a9ac) and make a zipped archive named ubuntu-latest.tar.gz. Remember that save is used for making backup of docker images (not containers).
# docker save ubuntu | gzip > ubuntu-latest.tar.gz

Import Image

After saving docker image in archive format on your system move it to remote system using scp or ftp. After that use below command on remote system to import Docker image with name ubuntu and tag name latest.
# zcat ubuntu-latest.gz | docker import - ubuntu:latest The above command will create a docker image with name ubuntu and tag name latest on your system. You can now launch containers using this image like below.

# docker run -i -t ubuntu /bin/bash
