Docker

Docker is both a client and a server: the server is a daemon that runs on Linux. The normal approach was that you used docker on the same server the daemon was running on - however it was possible to connect the docker client to a remote docker daemon.

Installation

Which OS to install?

Containers vs virtual machines

KubeVirt

OS containers vs application containers

Differences:

  • OS containers: LXC, OpenVZ, Linux VServer, BSD Jails and Solaris zones. The container acts as VPS.
  • App containers: Docker, Rocket. The container acts as an application.

Current release version

Ubuntu x86 and Mint

One-line script

https://github.com/docker/docker-install, https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/, https://twitter.com/portainerio/status/1650171336864550912

Note that 1) the one-liner is a huge security issue. 2) but how will you add the current user to docker group and then logout and log back in.

To run Docker as a non-privileged user, consider setting up the
Docker daemon in rootless mode for your user:

    dockerd-rootless-setuptool.sh install

Visit https://docs.docker.com/go/rootless/ to learn about rootless mode.


To run the Docker daemon as a fully privileged service, but granting non-root
users access, refer to https://docs.docker.com/go/daemon-access/

WARNING: Access to the remote API on a privileged Docker daemon is equivalent
         to root access on the host. Refer to the 'Docker daemon attack surface'
         documentation for details: https://docs.docker.com/go/attack-surface/



$ sudo groupadd docker
$ sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
$ newgrp docker

$ docker run hello-world

This can install docker but you still need "sudo" to run it. See Linux post-installation steps for Docker Engine: 1) Manage Docker as a non-root user, and 2) Configure Docker to start on boot with systemd.

Docker Desktop

Without sudo, Post-installation

To use docker without sudo, follow the instruction on the official guide. 

# Add the docker group if it doesn't already exist.
# sudo groupadd docker

# Add your user to the docker group.
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER

# Log out and log in

After running this command, you need to log out and log back in for the changes to take effect. This is because group membership is determined at login time. When you log in, the system reads the group membership information and assigns the appropriate permissions to your user account.

Upgrade Docker Desktop

It seems it does not affect running containers (e.g. RStudio on Mac).

Is it fine to upgrade Docker-ce while a container is running?

Doesn't matter. Your system will stop the container if you update docker.

Is there a way to hibernate a docker container

Rate limits for GitHub Apps

Rate limits for GitHub Apps

When I tried several times of docker build, I finally got a message 

Downloading GitHub repo XXX/XXXXX@HEAD
Error: Failed to install 'unknown package' from GitHub:
  HTTP error 403.
  API rate limit exceeded for XXX.XX.XXX.X. (But here's the good news: Authenticated requests get a higher rate limit. Check out the documentation for more details.)

  Rate limit remaining: 0/60
  Rate limit reset at: 2021-04-12 20:32:28 UTC

  To increase your GitHub API rate limit
  - Use `usethis::browse_github_pat()` to create a Personal Access Token.
  - Use `usethis::edit_r_environ()` and add the token as `GITHUB_PAT`.

Boot2Docker

For Windows and OS operation systems, we have to use Boot2Docker. Boot2Docker is a local virtual machine with its own network interface and IP address. To find the Boot2Docker IP address you can check the value of the DOCKER_HOST environment variable. You're be prompted to set this variable when you start or install Boot2Docker the first time. You can find the IP address by running boot2docker ip command.

Note that since Windows and OS X don't share a file system as Linux, the command 'docker run' with '-v' flag to mount a local directory into a Docker container will not work with Boot2Docker release prior to 1.3. The support for volumes is now available for OS X but is not yet present for Windows with the release of Boot2Docker 1.3.

Windows

Note many of the information here have not been updated.

Docker can be run on Windows 10 Pro as a native application; see

The information below is based on running Docker on Windows 7.1 and 8. Your processor needs to support hardware virtualization.

  • Windows Installer includes msys-git, Virtualbox, Boot2Docker-cli management tool and Boot2Docker ISO.
  • Installation instruction for Windows OS. It will install Boot2Docker management tool with the boot2docker iso (based on Tiny Core Linux), Virtualbox and MYSYS-git UNIX tools.
  • Docker needs Admin right to be installed. However, Virtualbox can be installed by user's account.
  • If the installer detects a version of VirtualBox installed, the VirtualBox checkbox will not be checked by default (Windows OS). The VirtualBox cannot be used anymore after updating my VB from 4.3.18 to 4.3.20. The error may be related to Windows update according to Virtualbox forum.
Error in supR3HardenedWinReSpawn
  • Note that boot2docker cannot be installed/run inside a Windows guest machine. See this post and my Virtualbox wiki here. If we try to launch boot2docker-vm from Virtualbox, we will see a message "This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU."
  • After I switch back to an old version of virtualbox, every thing works again. I can even install Docker successfully.
    • Boot2Docker Start icon cannot be run directly because Notepad++ will automatically open it. A possible solution is to go to control panel and change default program for .sh file from Notepad++ to C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\bash.exe.
    • The above step does not work well since a terminal appears and disappears quickly.
    • A working approach is to open Git Bash from Start menu. And run /c/Program Files/Boot2DockerforWindows/start.sh (or boot2docker start or boot2docer init)
    • A new VM called 'boot2docker-vm' will be created (we can open VirtualBox Manager to check). But I got an error error in run: Failed to start machine "boot2docker-vm" (run again with -v for details). The VM has an error on Network>Adapter2>VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter #2. So I open the setting of <boot2docker-vm>, go to Network > Adapter 2 and change the dropdown list of Name from VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter #2 to VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter.
    • Now it works either I directly click boot2docker-vm VM from VB Manager or use the command start.sh from Git Bash.

Hello from Docker.
This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly.

To generate this message, Docker took the following steps:
 1. The Docker client contacted the Docker daemon.
 2. The Docker daemon pulled the "hello-world" image from the Docker Hub.
    (Assuming it was not already locally available.)
 3. The Docker daemon created a new container from that image which runs the
    executable that produces the output you are currently reading.
 4. The Docker daemon streamed that output to the Docker client, which sent it
    to your terminal.

To try something more ambitious, you can run an Ubuntu container with:
 $ docker run -it ubuntu bash

On Windows, 1) right click on 'This PC' and choose 'Add a network location'. 2) type \\192.168.1.249\ and the dropdown list will populate all available folders. 3) choose the one (e.g. Bob) and then enter the credential. Done. On Ubuntu, just type smb://192.168.1.249/. It will then populate the available folders.

plex We can access the plex server via http://IP:32400/web. Note that in the first server setup, we need to add Library' by choosing the new library name (eg Other Videos) shown on plex & the data source (eg /data) so our own media can be found. After we added new media files we can rescan by clicking the vertical 3 dots icon and selecting scan library files.

sudo mkdir -p /srv/dev-disk-by-label-Files/Config/Nextcloud

After that, copy and paste the stack into portainer. Wait for a few minutes on RPi3. The port number is 8080. Now we can create the admin username/password such as nextcloud/nextcloud. Click the little triangle next to "Storage and Database". Change to MySQL. In the next part we enter nextcloud/nextcloud/nextcloud/db (note the "db" replaces localhost b/c we use "db" as the service name). Again, wait for a few minutes.

Heimdall (Dashboard for web apps). I keep the PUID (1000) and PGID (1000). The instruction says it is from the admin user account but I don't find admin account? Change the volume to /srv/dev-disk-by-label-Files/Config/Heimdall (use sudo mkdir to create the directory on terminal). Change the port to 83 & remove port 443. Define the endpoint from Portainer -> Endpoints -> local -> Public IP as raspberrypi.local (depending on your hostname). We need to wait a little bit. Now go to the container and find heimdall and click the port in order to open the website correctly (instead 0.0.0.0). I can add apps like nextcloud, portainer, pi-hole, other servers, etc. The Application Type entry has a good list of popular apps and it will pre-populate the button icon and the background color for our app.

taisun The default port is 3000

yacht. The default login is [email protected] and pass. The name shown on portainer is pedantic_hermann 

docker volume create yacht
docker run -d -p 8001:8000 -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v yacht:/config selfhostedpro/yacht

Note that we need sudo is needed unless it is on a Mac OS.

If docker cannot find an image, it will try to pull it from its repository.

Restart docker daemon

When I try the Chap5 > Continuous integration (Jenkins) of the Docker Book, I found I cannot stop/kill the container. See others' report here. The solution is to restart the docker daemon. 

sudo service docker start

After that, I can stop and rm the container. 

sudo docker stop jenkins
sudo docker rm jenkins
sudo docker ps -a

When we want to delete a container, we use the container's CONTAINER ID or NAME (last column output from docker ps -a). But when we want to delete an image, we use the image's REPOSITORY or IMAGE ID (2nd column output from docker images) 

$ sudo docker rm thirsty_engelbart  # iman/touch
$ sudo docker rm dc9e82f2c00a       # eddelbuettel/docker-ubuntu-r:add-r-devel-san
$ sudo docker ps -a   # check to see the container is gone now

$ sudo docker rmi 6e0f5644b2fd
$ sudo docker rmi iman/touch

Rootless mode

  • Run the Docker daemon as a non-root user (Rootless mode)
    • The data dir is set to ~/.local/share/docker by default. The data dir should not be on NFS.
  • Setup on Ubuntu 22.04 
    curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | bash
sudo apt install -y uidmap
dockerd-rootless-setuptool.sh install
nano ~/.bashrc

source ~/.bashrc

systemctl --user start docker
systemctl --user enable docker
sudo loginctl enable-linger $(whoami)

docker run hello-world
docker run --rm -ti r-base:4.4.1
  • Unfortunately, Rocker/rstudio does not work. I am not able to log in using username/password. It keeps saying incorrect username/password.
  • Limitations:
    • Performance Overhead
      • OverlayFS Limitations: Rootless Docker uses fuse-overlayfs instead of OverlayFS by default, which can be slower.
      • Resource Limits: The performance might be slightly lower compared to running Docker with root privileges due to additional user namespace operations.
    • Network Restrictions
      • Network Drivers: Only the bridge and host network drivers are supported. macvlan and overlay network drivers are not supported.
      • Port Binding: Binding to ports below 1024 is not allowed. Only non-privileged ports (1024 and above) can be used.
    • File System
      • Volume Permissions: Issues with file permissions can arise when mounting volumes from the host, as the files created by rootless Docker processes will be owned by the user running Docker, not root.
      • NFS and Other Filesystems: Certain filesystems like NFS might have compatibility issues with rootless Docker due to permission and ownership constraints.
    • Compatibility
      • Certain Features: Some Docker features might not be fully supported or behave differently. For example, checkpoint/restore and cgroup v1 are not supported.
      • Security Features: Some security features like AppArmor, SELinux, and seccomp might have limited functionality or require additional configuration.
    • Configuration Complexity
    • Troubleshooting

# Ctrl+p, Ctrl+q to exit the container without terminating it
$ docker ps -a # showing the container 70c5aceb5512 is running in the background

How to start a stopped Docker container with a different command

How to start a stopped Docker container with a different command?

Clean shutdown DOCKER containers before reboot

Dockerizing Applications/Detached mode

$ sudo docker run -d --name insane_babbage ubuntu:14.04 /bin/sh -c "while true; do echo hello world; sleep 1; done"
$ sudo docker ps -l
$ sudo docker logs insane_babbage
$ sudo docker stop insane_babbage
$ sudo docker ps

The -d flag tells Docker to run the container and put it in the background, to daemonize it.

According to https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#detached-vs-foreground, containers started in detached mode exit when the root process used to run the container exits, unless you also specify the --rm option. If you use -d with --rm, the container is removed when it is stopped, exits or when the daemon exits, whichever happens first.

Automatically restart after reboot

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18786054/how-to-auto-restart-a-docker-container-after-a-reboot-in-coreos

Add a --restart=always parameter. It will always restart a stopped container unless it has been explicitly stopped, such as via a "docker container stop" command. See the following 

$ docker run -d --restart always myCustomeDocker

$ docker container run --name neverdie -it --restart always ubuntu /bin/bash
# exit
$ docker ps -a  # the container is still ther
$ docker stop neverdie
$ docker ps -a

Working with Containers

$ sudo docker run -i -t ubuntu /bin/bash
$ sudo docker version
$ sudo docker
$ sudo docker attach --help

Environment variables

Docker container ID

  • The full container ID is a hexadecimal string of 64 characters.
  • The minimum number of characters required for a Docker ID is 4.
  • We can use a shorter ID in docker command if that ID uniquely determined the container. For example, docker exec -it 9608 bash or even docker exec -it 9 bash works.

Alpine image

apk add htop

Running a Web Application

$ sudo docker run -d -P training/webapp python app.py

Alpine linux is 6MB. It is a good OS to run a web application. See the demo here.

Viewing our Web Application Container

$ sudo docker ps -l
$ sudo docker run -d -p 5000:5000 training/webapp python app.py

Check container status (docker status) - CPU, Memory usage

Container networking

Host network

If you use the host network driver for a container, that container’s network stack is not isolated from the Docker host. For instance, if you run a container which binds to port 80 and you use host networking, the container’s application will be available on port 80 on the host’s IP address.

docker attach

Suppose I run docker run -it --user rstudio bioconductor/bioconductor_docker:devel R and I use q() to quit the container. The container is still there. To re-enter the R in the container, I use 

docker start XXXXXXXX    # restart it in the background
docker attach XXXXXXXX   # reattach the terminal & stdin

If we want the latest created container, then we use 

docker start `docker ps -q -l` && docker attach `docker ps -q -l`

docker exec: SSH into a running container

Run a command in a running container

  • Usage: 
    docker exec [OPTIONS] CONTAINER COMMAND [ARG...]
  • Examples: 
    $ docker exec -d ubuntu_bash touch /tmp/execWorks # do st in the background

$ docker exec -it ubuntu_bash bash

$ docker exec -it -e VAR=1 ubuntu_bash bash # set an environment variable

$ docker exec -it ubuntu_bash pwd
$ docker exec -it -w /root ubuntu_bash pwd # change the working directory

Know the container size

docker ps -s

Meaning of two sizes

  • The "size" information shows the amount of data (on disk) that is used for the writable layer of each container
  • The "virtual size" is the amount of disk-space used for the read-only image data used by the container.

Similarly to remove all exited containers 

$ sudo docker ps -a | grep Exit | awk '{print $1}' | xargs sudo docker rm

To kill/stop (not delete) all running containers 

$ sudo docker kill $(sudo docker ps -q)

To delete all stopped containers 

$ sudo docker rm $(sudo docker ps -a -q)
OR
$ sudo docker rm `sudo docker ps -a -q`

It is also helpful to create bash aliases for these commands by editing ~/.bash_aliases file.

docker create vs docker run

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37744961/docker-run-vs-create

docker create is similar to docker run -d except the container is never started.

Retrieve docker run command

https://stackoverflow.com/a/32774347. See the github page of runlike. So it is better to put the docker run in a stack. Then for example the Portainer has an Editor tab to show the compose file. 

docker run --rm -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
    assaflavie/runlike -p CONTAINER_NAME

The -p option splits the output into pretty lines.

How to Modify the Configuration of Running Docker Containers

How to Modify the Configuration of Running Docker Containers

Volume

Examples of host's volume locations

/home/$USER/docker/$PROJECT/$SUB-DIRECTORY

PUID, PGID, share volume permission/owner

  • Understanding PUID and PGID (or the source)
  • You should use the -e PUID and -e PGID options when creating a container from a Docker image to map the container’s internal user to a user on the host machine. This is useful because Docker runs all of its containers under the root user domain, which means that processes running inside your containers also run as root. This kind of elevated access is not ideal for day-to-day use and can potentially give applications access to things they shouldn’t. By using PUID and PGID, you can ensure that files and directories created during the container’s lifespan are owned by a user on the host machine instead of root.
  • Please note that not all Docker images support the PUID and PGID environment variables. The Docker image must be designed to use these variables. If you’re using an image that doesn’t support these variables, you may need to create a Dockerfile to build a new image that does.
  • The following works. The --user option is a built-in Docker feature that sets the user (and optionally the group) that is used to run the container. This option works regardless of whether the Docker image uses any specific environment variables. PS. "docker" user has been defined in the r-base's Dockerfile. 
    docker run --rm -ti --user docker \
  -v "$(pwd)":/workspace r-base 
> setwd("/workspace")
> save(iris, file="iris.rda")
> system("ls -lt")
> unlink("iris.rda")
  • Similarly, the --user option works with rocker/rstudio image and ubuntu. 
    docker run --rm -ti --user rstudio \
  -v "$(pwd)":/workspace rocker/rstudio R
> setwd("/workspace")
> save(iris, file="iris.rda")
> system("ls -lt")
> unlink("iris.rda")

    Note that the prompt is $ rather than #. 

    docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/home --user ubuntu \
   ubuntu bash
$ id
uid=1000(ubuntu) gid=1000(ubuntu) groups=1000(ubuntu),4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),25(floppy),27(sudo),29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev)
$ cd /home
$ echo "newfile" > newfile

    docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/home --user "$(id -u):$(id -g)" \
   ubuntu bash
$ cd /home
$ echo "newfile" > newfile
  • In the article Sharing files with host machine from the Rocker's project, users are instructed to use -e USERID variable if the host machine user has a UID other than 1000. But the generated file 'iris.rda' from the following example is still owned by root:( 
    docker run --rm -ti -v "$(pwd)":/workspace -e USERID=$UID rocker/rstudio R
  • (Cont.) however, if we run the above command as a daemon and log in using the user "rstudio" , it works even we don't specify the "-e USERID" option. The lesson is we should use the user defined in the docker image. 
    docker run --rm -v "$(pwd)":/workspace -p PASSWORD=123 rocker/rstudio

    Notice the prompt is # rather than $ and the user id is 0. 

    docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/home -e PUID=1000 -e PGID=1000 \
  ubuntu bash
# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)
  • In this video How to Install Calibre on OMV and Docker, it uses the command id admin where "admin" is the portainer user to get PUID (of "admin") and PGID (of "users") to find out the two ids.

Back Up Your Docker Volumes

How to Back Up Your Docker Volumes

Two ways to achieve persistent data

Inspect the 'Mountpoint' of a volume

$ docker volume create crv
$ docker volume ls

$ docker run -d \
     --name mycloud \
     -p 81:80 \
     -v apps:/var/www/html/custom_apps \
     nextcloud

# docker inspect is not quite useful. It does not show how the volume was created
# But we can examine (ls, du, ...) the directory contents
$ docker inspect apps   
[
    {
        "CreatedAt": "2018-10-23T09:41:52-04:00",
        "Driver": "local",
        "Labels": null,
        "Mountpoint": "/var/lib/docker/volumes/apps/_data",
        "Name": "apps",
        "Options": null,
        "Scope": "local"
    }
]

Remove an an unnamed volume

I you want to automatically removes volumes when a container is removed, you can use the --rm flag when starting the container with the "docker run" command. This flag tells Docker to automatically remove the container and any anonymous volumes associated with it when the container exits. However, this flag does not affect named volumes.

If you created an unnamed volume, it can be deleted at the same time as the container with the -v flag. Note that this only works with unnamed volumes. 

docker rm -v container_name

If the volume is named, it stays present. To remove a named volume, use docker volume rm volume_name .

Volumes created in docker-compose

When you use docker-compose to create and manage containers, volumes are handled slightly differently than when using the docker run command.

In a "docker-compose.yml" file, you can specify named volumes using the volumes key at the top level of the file. These volumes are created when you run docker-compose up and are not automatically removed when you stop or remove the containers using docker-compose down.

If you want to remove named volumes created by docker-compose, you can use the -v flag with the docker-compose down command. Here’s an example command that stops and removes all containers defined in a docker-compose.yml file and also removes any named volumes: 

docker-compose down -v

This command stops and removes all containers defined in the docker-compose.yml file and also removes any named volumes specified in the file. All data stored in the volumes will be permanently deleted.

Anonymous volumes created by docker-compose are automatically removed when you stop and remove the containers using docker-compose down, even if you don’t use the -v flag.

Start a container with a volume

--mount -v
docker run -d \

--name devtest \
--mount source=myvol2,target=/app \
nginx:latest

docker run -d \

--name devtest \
-v myvol2:/app \
nginx:latext

Note

  • target in "--mount" can be replaced by destination or dst.
  • To use a read-only volume, add the ,readonly option in "--mount" or the :ro option in "-v".
  • We cannot use "~/" to represent a local directory under HOME. We have to specify a full path in docker run.

A simple example

From the book "Learn Docerk -Fundamentals of Docker 18.x". Chap 5. Data Volumes and System Management > Creating and mounting data volumes. 

# Create a volume
docker volume create my-data
docker volume inspect my-data
# The host folder can be found in the output under 'Mountpoint'
# In my case,
#        "Mountpoint": "/var/lib/docker/volumes/my-data/_data",

# Mount a volume into a container
docker run --name test -it -v my-data:/data alpine /bin/sh
# cd /data
# echo 'some data' > data.txt
# echo 'more data' > data2.txt
# exit
docker inspect my-data
sudo ls /var/lib/docker/volumes/my-data/_data
# We can even try to output the content of say, the second file:
sudo cat /var/lib/docker/volumes/my-data/_data/data2.txt
# We can create a new file in this folder from the host and then use the volume with another container
echo "the file is created on host" > sudo tee /var/lib/docker/volumes/my-data/_data/host-data
# Let's delete the test container and run another one
docker rm test

# This time we are mounting our volume to a different container folder
docker run --name test2 -it -v my-data:/app/data centos:7 /bin/bash
# We are able to see three files:
# ls /app/data

# Remove volumes
docker volume rm my-data # Or 
docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -q)

# Remove all running containers to clean up the system,
docker rm -f $(docker ls -aq)

Sharing data between containers

How to Share Data Between Docker Containers 

docker run -it --name writer -v shared-data:/data alpine /bin/sh
# create a file inside it
# echo 'my sample file' > /data/sample.txt
# exit
docker run -it --name reader -v shared-data:/app/data:ro ubuntu:17.04 /bin/bash
# ls -l /app/data

Using host volumes

Use volumes that mount a specific host folder

  • It may be possible for the "docker volume" command to mount a local directory to a volume. See examples in the "docker volume create" documentation.
  • Specifying a directory name instead of giving a volume name in the "docker run" 's -v option
  • Since we are specifying a directory name instead of letting docker to create a new volume, "docker volume ls" will not getting a new volume
docker run -it --name test -v $(pwd)/src:/app/src alpine /bin/sh

# Make a sample to demonstrate how that works
mkdir ~/my-web; cd ~/my-web
echo "<h1>My website</h1>" > index.html

# Create 'Dockerfile'
echo -e 'FROM nginx:alpine
COPY . /usr/share/nginx/html' > Dockerfile

docker image build -t my-website:1.0 .
docker run -d -p 8080:80 --name my-site my-website:1.0

# Open http://localhost:8080. It looks good
# Now modify index.html and refresh the website. It does not refresh
# Let's stop and rm the container and rebuild using a volume
docker rm -f my-site
docker run -d -v $(pwd):/usr/share/nginx/html \
   -p 8080:80 --name my-site my-website:1.0
# Now any changes on index.html will refresh on the website

Define volumes in images

A few samples of volume definition 

VOLUME /app/data
VOLUME /app/data, /app/profiles, /app/config
VOLUME {"/app/data", "/app/profiles", "/app/config"]

The first line defines a single volume to be mounted at /app/data.

We can use the docker image inspect command to get information about the volumes defined in the Dockerfile. 

docker image pull mongo:3.7
docker image inspect --format='{{json .ContainerConfig.Volumes}}' \
       mongo:3.7 | jq
# {
#   "/data/configdb": {},
#   "/data/db": {}
# }

# now run an instance of MongoDB and inspect the volume information
docker run --name my-mongo -d mongo:3.7
docker inspect --format '{{json .Mounts}}' my-mongo | jq
# [
#  {
#    "Type": "volume",
#    "Name": "535e0138b9a32e89f71380e9e73bb0de64ce0d1cad78fcda0ec1d49e11d76d7a",
#    "Source": "/var/lib/docker/volumes/535e0138b9a32e89f71380e9e73bb0de64ce0d1.../_data",
#    "Destination": "/data/configdb",
#    "Driver": "local",
#    "Mode": "",
#    "RW": true,
#    "Propagation": ""
#  },
#  {
#    "Type": "volume",
# SKIP

Work with container images

List images by size or name

# by size
docker images --format "{{.ID}}\t{{.Size}}\t{{.Repository}}" | sort -k 2 -h

# by name
docker images --format "{{.ID}}\t{{.Size}}\t{{.Repository}}" | sort -k 3

List specific columns

docker images --format 'table {{.Repository}}\t{{.Tag}}\t{{.Size}}'

Create an image interactively using commit - Example 1

The example is from the book 'Learn Docker - Fundamentals of Docker 18.x'. 

docker container run -it --name sample alpine /bin/sh
# apk update && apk add iputils
# ping 127.0.0.1
# exit
docker container ls -a | grep sample
docker container diff sample

We can now use the docker container commit command to persist our modifications and create a new image from them 

docker container commit sample my-alpine
docker images ls

If we want to see how our custom image has been built, we can use the history command as follows: 

docker image history my-alpine
# IMAGE               CREATED              CREATED BY                                      SIZE    COMMENT
# 0f105057899b        About a minute ago   /bin/sh                                         1.55MB              
# 196d12cf6ab1        4 weeks ago          /bin/sh -c #(nop)  CMD ["/bin/sh"]              0B                  
# <missing>           4 weeks ago          /bin/sh -c #(nop) ADD file:25c10b1d1b41d46a1…   4.41MB

The first layer in the preceding list is the one we just created by adding the iputils package.

Create an image interactively using commit - Example 2

Note that it is better/necessary to put the Dockerfile in an empty directory to avoid the problem of taking a long time to build the image (sending build context to Docker daemon ...GB ) since it will grab files from the current directory.

Dockerfile

  • Dockerfile Reference
  • Using Dockerfiles to Automate Building of Images from digitalocean.com.
  • Remember to put the Dockerfile in an empty directory.
  • What goes into a Dockerfile
  • Keywords
    • FROM. If we want to start from scratch, we can use FROM scratch.
    • RUN. The argument for RUN is any valid Linux command.
    • USER. This is useful if we want to create new files with a non-root owner privilege. For example, new files created under a binding directory with a non-root user ownership will belong to the current user in the host system. Here is an example where we use Rmarkdown to create pdf output. The generated pdf file should not be own by root. How to add users to Docker container? Switch users.
    • COPY & ADD.
      • "COPY . /app" will copy all files and folders from the current directory recursively to the /app folder. We can use "ADD" too but "ADD" will automatically unpack tarballs. See What is the difference between the `COPY` and `ADD` commands in a Dockerfile?
      • "ADD sample.tar /app/bin" will unpack the sample.tar' file into the target folder
      • "ADD http://example.com/sample.txt /data/" will copy the remote file sample.txt into the target file
    • WORKDIR. Define the working directory or context that is used when a container is run from the image.
    • CMD & ENTRYPOINT. These two are actually definitions of what will happen when a container is started from the image.
      • Use CMD without ENTRYPOINT: "CMD command param1 param2". This form is called the shell form.
      • If we use ENTRYPOINT + CMD, ENTRYPOINT defines the command and CMD defines parameters. The example above will run ping 8.8.8.8 -c 3. This form is called the exec form.
  • The Docker Book

Examples of Dockerfile

FROM python:2.7
RUN mkdir -p /app
WORKDIR /app
COPY ./requirements.txt /app/
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt
CMD ["python", "main.py"]
  • Another example
FROM alpine:latest
ENTRYPOINT ["ping"]
CMD ["8.8.8.8", "-c", "3"]

FROM debian:testing
RUN useradd docker \
	&& mkdir /home/docker \
	&& chown docker:docker /home/docker \
	&& addgroup docker staff

We can test it by "docker build -t mydebian . " and "docker run --rm -it --user docker -v /tmp:/home/docker mydebian". We can create a new file under /home/docker and the file will be accessible and belongs to the current host user once we quit the container. This actually is a huge security issue.

The same technique does not work on alpine if I try to create a new file in the container. 

FROM alpine:latest
# Create a group and user; not useful for creating files in host OS
RUN addgroup -S appgroup && adduser -S appuser -G appgroup \
           && chown appuser:appgroup /home/appuser

"docker build -t myalpine . " and "docker run --rm -it -v ~/Downloads/:/home/appuser:rw --user appuser myalpine". When I use the "id" command in the container, I see it returns 100 in alpine container and 1000 in debian container. The id returns 1000 on my host (Ubuntu/Pop_OS). So the solution is docker run --rm -it -v ~/Downloads/:/home/appuser --user 1000:1000 myalpine. So the local user and the created user home directory in the container are not needed. See

How to use Dockerfile

https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/build/

The . simply means "current working directory". 

docker build -f Dockerfile -t arraytools/myimagename .

docker build -t [myname] .  
# Multiple tags
docker build -t arraytools/biospear:latest -t arraytools/biospear:3.6.0 .

In the above example, we can create the image by 

docker image build -t pinger .

We can run a container from the pinger image 

docker container run --rm -it pinger

How to Use Docker Build Args to Configure Image Builds

Clean up after failed builds

Cleanup docker images and containers after failed builds 

#!/bin/bash
docker rm $(docker ps -aq) \
  docker rmi $(docker images | grep "^<none>" | awk '{print $3}')

ENTRYPOINT and CMD

The advantage of using ENTRYPOINT + CMD (exec form) instead of using CMD alone (shell form) is we can override the CMD part that I have defined in the Dockerfile. 

docker container run --rm -it pinger -w 5 127.0.0.1
# ping the loopback for 5 seconds

If we want to overwrite what's defined in the ENTRYPOINT in the Dockerfile, we need to use the --entrypoint parameter. 

docker container run --rm -it --entrypoint /bin/sh pinger
# we'll be inside the container. Type exit to leave the container

When we use the shell form, the ENTRYPOINT is have the default value of /bin/sh -c and whatever is the value of CMD will be passed as a string to the shell command.

Best practices for writing Dockerfiles

Use multi-stage builds

With multi-stage builds, we have a single Dockerfile containing multiple FROM instructions. Each FROM instruction is a new build stage that can easily COPY artifacts from previous stages.

List all tags of an image

How can I list all tags for a Docker image on a remote registry?

Tag the image with the git commit ID

$ docker build -t REPOS/IMAGE:$(git rev-parse --verify HEAD)

Run a shell script on host

$ docker run -v /path/to/sample_script.sh:/sample_script.sh \
  --rm ubuntu bash sample_script.sh

# GATK container example
# First we log in interactive and see where is the default location (/usr in this case)
$ docker run --rm -i -t broadinstitute/gatk3:3.8-0 bash
$ cat > tmp.sh << EOF
> pwd
> ls
> java -jar GenomeAnalysisTK.jar --version
> EOF
$ docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/usr/my broadinstitute/gatk3:3.8-0 bash my/tmp.sh
# ALTERNATIVELY, WE CAN PUT OUR SCRIPT IN THE TOP DIRECTORY (Hopefully the name is not duplicated)
$ docker run --rm -v $(pwd)/tmp.sh:/tmp.sh broadinstitute/gatk3:3.8-0 bash /tmp.sh

docker run -d -v$(pwd):/my SOMEIMAGE bash 
docker exec -d Test bash /my/script.sh

Docker DNS/internet problem

I got an error on resolving the debian server when I was creating an image from a Dockerfile that needs to run apt update and apt install commands. See RStudio in Docker – now share your R code effortlessly!. The problem happened on my Linux Mint Desktop but not on a VirtualBox VM (Ubuntu 18.04).

Fix Docker's networking DNS config

A temporary solution is to add the --dns option to docker run command. This works well when I use the IP from any one of my 2 DNS servers. It does not work however if I use the IP from google DNS or OpenDNS.

A permanent solution is to create a new file /etc/docker/daemon.json and include the working DNS server IPs (these are obtained through the nmcli command or the NetworkManager GUI; see Query DNS server). 

{
    "dns": ["XXX.XX.XX.XX", "YYY.YY.YY.YY"]
}

Then restart the docker service: sudo service docker restart

A quick test on the DNS problem is 

docker run --rm busybox nslookup google.com

GUI apps

Firefox example

Running GUI Applications in Docker Container 

From ubuntu:20.04
RUN apt update
RUN apt install firefox -y
RUN apt install python3-pip -y
RUN pip3 install  notebook

CMD /usr/bin/firefox
CMD jupyter-notebook --allow-root

nano Dockerfile
docker build -t gui .
docker run --env="DISPLAY" --net=host --name=firefox gui

It works. However, I need to use docker rm -f firefox to kill it since Ctrl+c does not work.

Meld example, save a running container as an image

Running a GUI Application in a Docker Container. It works. Below is a modified version for creating the meld app. I can save file modified by meld. To use the app, I need to place files in the ~/Documents/docker (defined in -v). Note that the RAM usage is very minimal. Unfortunately on macOS, I got an error something related to Gtk. 

host> docker image pull ubuntu:jammy  # 22.04
 
host> docker container run --rm --net host -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix -it ubuntu:jammy
container# apt update
container# apt install -y meld
host> xhost +local:
container# export DISPLAY=:0

host> docker container ls  # find the ID of the running container
host> docker commit <ID> meld
container# exit

host> docker container run --rm --net host \
  -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
  -v ~/Documents/docker:/meld \
  -e DISPLAY \
  --name=meld \
  meld meld

R and httpgd package

  • httpgd Docker vignette, installation from Github.
  • It works. However, currently "httpgs" is archived in CRAN (2023/1/25). So my temporary solution is 
    $ docker run --rm -it r-base:4.2.2 bash
# apt update
# apt install  libfontconfig1-dev
# R
> install.packages("remotes")
> remotes::install_github("nx10/httpgd")
## note if we try to run 'httpgd::hgd(host = "0.0.0.0", port = 8888)', it does not work.
## The reason is we have not use "-p" option to expose a port in the previous "docker run" command

## open another terminal and create a docker image based on the current container
$ docker ps -a | head
$ docker commit CONTAINER_ID httpgd:4.2.2
$ docker run --rm -it -p 8888:8888 httpgd:4.2.2 R
> httpgd::hgd(host = "0.0.0.0", port = 8888)
> plot(1:5)
  • It works when I tested it on a remote ubuntu server (R 4.4.0 & httpgd 2.0.1) (following the instruction on Docker vignette). Either IP or hostname works but the hostname URL link given by httpgd::hgd() needs to be modified to include .local.
  • Some variation of using hgd() 
    hgd(host="0.0.0.0", port = 8888) # allow connection from any one from any computer
hgd()                # default is host=127.0.0.1, port will be random
hgd(token="secret")  # define the token

hgd_browse()
hgd_close()
hgd_details()
hgd_url()
hgd_view()
  • To use it with Bioconductor (the Bioconductor docker image will use p3m.dev to install binary R packages so it is fast to create images), we can do like this 
    $ docker run --rm -it -p 8888:8888 bioconductor/bioconductor_docker:RELEASE_3_18 R 

> install.packages("httpgd")
> httpgd::hgd(host = "0.0.0.0", port = 8888)

    OR use, for example, "bioconductor/bioconductor_docker:RELEASE_3_18" as the base image in the Dockerfile, and follow the same instruction from httpgd vignette to create a docker image. 

    $ nano Dockerfile_httpgd
$ docker build . -f Dockerfile_httpgd -t bioc-httpgd:RELEASE_3_18
$ docker images
$ docker run --rm -it --user rstudio -p 8888:8888 bioc-httpgd:RELEASE_3_18 R
  • Singularity. The following is a definition file that is using the bioconductor image + the httpgd package. 
    Bootstrap: docker
From: bioconductor/bioconductor_docker:RELEASE_3_18

%post
    apt-get update \
    && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \
    libfontconfig1-dev \
    && apt-get autoremove -y && apt-get clean -y && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* \
    && install2.r --error --skipinstalled --ncpu -1 \
    httpgd \
    && rm -rf /tmp/downloaded_packages

%runscript
    exec /usr/local/bin/R

%environment
    export LC_ALL=C
    sudo singularity build bioc.sif bioc.def
singularity run bioc.sif 

> httpgd::hgd(host = "0.0.0.0", port = 8888)

    After we copy the URL, we need to modify the IP or hostname.

Delete/remove/prune unused resources

Prune unused Docker objects

  • Prune build cache (seems most effective) 
    docker builder prune

docker system df -v # Check Docker disk usage
sudo du -sh /var/lib/docker
  • Prune containers 
    docker container prune # remove all containers that are not in ''running'' status
                       # Docker will ask for confirmation before deleting the containers

docker container prune -f
docker container rm -f $(docker container ls -aq) # remove even the running containers
  • Prune dangling images: Dangling images are images that aren’t tagged and aren’t referenced by any container. 
    docker image prune # unused image layers
  • Remove all unused images: If you want to remove all images that aren’t used by any existing containers, you can use the -a flag 
    docker image prune -a
  • Prune volumes 
    docker volume ls
docker volume prune # unused volumes by at least one container

docker volume prune --filter 'label=demo'
docker volume prune --filter 'label=demo' --filter 'label=test'
  • Prune networks 
    docker network prune
  • Prune everything. 
    docker system prune

How to transfer/copy an image to another host

How to copy Docker images from one host to another without using a repository 

# Step 1: save the Docker image as a tar file:
docker save -o <path for generated tar file> <image name>

# Step 2: copy your image to a new system with regular file transfer tools such as cp or scp. 

# Step 3: After that you will have to load the image into Docker:
docker load -i <path to image tar file>

The tar file size is the same as what we get from 'docker image'. If we use the 'gzip' utility, it can reduce the file size (e.g 2.7GB to 1.1GB).

Or https://stackoverflow.com/a/39716019 

# Step 1:
docker save docker-image-name | gzip > my-image.tar.gz
# Step 3:
docker load < my-image.tar.gz

Where are Docker containers/images stored on the host: /var/lib/docker

The default is /var/lib/docker. The location can be changed by modifying the file /etc/default/docker. Three options if we are tight on the disk space.

1. Create a softlinks for the Docker data directory (/var/lib/docker) and for /var/lib/docker/tmp as described at miscellaneous-options. See this. See for how to stop docker daemon on different OS. 

sudo service docker stop   # or sudo systemctl stop docker
sudo mv /var/lib/docker /a/new/location
sudo ln -s /a/new/location /var/lib/docker # Create a symbolic link
sudo service docker start  # or sudo systemctl start docker

2. Change the default location to another place. For example, 

sudo nano /etc/default/docker
# Add a line DOCKER_OPTS="-g /home/brb/Docker"

Then after running sudo service docker.io restart and then a simple pull sudo docker pull rocker/r-base or sudo docker run --rm -ti rocker/r-base (the Dockerfile of r-base is available on github.com, --rm option means Automatically remove the container when it exits), we will see something like this: 

$ docker run --rm -ti rocker/r-base
$ docker images
$ docker -v
Docker version 1.0.1, build 990021a

$ docker -D info | grep Root
 Root Dir: /home/brb/Docker/aufs

Consuming Docker system events

# Open a new terminal

Monitor tools

Docker Machine

Docker Machine is a tool that lets you

  • Install Docker Engine on virtual hosts. You can use Machine (a unified way) to create Docker hosts on your local Mac or Windows box, on your company network, in your data center, or on cloud providers like Azure, AWS, or Digital Ocean. See the comment on here.
  • Provision and manage multiple remote Docker hosts
  • Provision Swarm clusters

Docker machine is not installed in Linux when you install Docker. See the instruction on here to install it.

My feeling is if we just want to play Docker on a local Linux machine, we don't really need to use Docker Machine (it just make life more complicated). But if we are working on Mac/Windows or we want to work on clouds or test on VirtualBox, we shall use Docker machines.

Use Docker-machine to Create Docker Servers. Compare the Docker images on the local machine (server 1) & a new host (server 2) created by docker-machine. Question: 1. how to tell we are in the host/machine environment? 2. how to exit the host environment after we use eval $() command? docker-machine stop MachineName. 

$ docker-machine help
$ docker-machine create --driver=virtualbox test
# Follow its hint on the output, issue the following command
$ docker-machine env test
# Follow its hint on the output, issue the following command
$ eval$(docker-machine env test) # will configure the docker CLI to connect to this docker machine 'test'
                                 # This is equivalent to running 4 export commands on the command line
$ docker-machine ls  # Very useful
$ docker-machine stop test
$ docker-machine ip test
$ docker-machine start test
$ docker-machine rm test

Play Docker Machine on Mac with Virtualbox. Docker can be used to create a virtual machine just like Vagrant. 

$ docker-machine create -d virtualbox demo
$ docker-machine ls

# first way to access a Docker host
$ docker-machine ssh demo
docker@demo:~$ docker images # empty for now

# second way to access 
$ docker-machine env demo
$ eval $(docker-machine env demo)
$ docker version

RancherOS demo video used the docker-machine command to pull and run the RancherOS. 

docker-machine create -d virtualbox --virtualbox-boot2docker-url https://releases.rancher.com/os/latest/rancheros.iso demo
docker-machine ssh demo

Difference of "docker compose" and "docker-compose"

  • Docker-compose is the original Python-based command-line tool that was released in 2014. Docker compose is a newer Go-based command-line tool that is integrated into the Docker CLI platform and supports the compose-spec. Docker compose is meant to be a drop-in replacement for docker-compose, but it may have some behavior differences and new features. Docker compose is currently a tech preview, but it will eventually replace docker-compose as the recommended way to use Compose.

Simple examples

Create a file docker-compose.yml and run docker-compose up after creating the file.

hello-world: 9kB 

version: "3"
services:
  hello:
    image: hello-world

alpine: 7.73MB 

version: "3"
services:
  server:
    image: alpine
    container_name: my_container
    command: sh -c "echo 'hello' && echo 'docker'"

Nginx: 135MB 

mkdir src
echo "Hello world!" > src/index.html

version: "3"
services:
  client:
    image: nginx
    ports:
      - 8000:80
    volumes:
      - ./src:/usr/share/nginx/html

Composerize/convert a docker command into a docker compose file

An example from 'Fundamentals of Docker'

git clone https://github.com/fundamentalsofdocker/labs.git
cd labs/ch08
docker-compose up
# Open http://localhost:3000/pet

The images do not show up:( The terminal shows what has happened under the hood. So the problem is the http links for images do not exist.

We can also run the application in the background 

docker-compose up -d

To stop and clean up the application, Howto use docker-compose to Start, Stop, Remove Docker Containers 

docker-compose down # Stop and remove containers, networks, images, and unnamed volumes
                    # defined in the docker-compose.yml flie
# OR
docker-compose down -v # similar to above but remove named volumes defined in yml file
# OR
docker-compose stop && docker-compose rm -f
docker-compose rm -v

If we also want to remove the volume for the database 

docker volume rm ch08_pets-data

An example from "How to Setup NGINX as Reverse Proxy Using Docker"

See here. Only nginx is used.

An example from "Docker Deep Dive" (flask + redis)

Note that on Get started with Docker Compose it mounts the current directory to /code inside the container. So after we modify app.py, we don't need to copy it to the container.

Dry – An Interactive CLI Manager For Docker Containers. The TUI is built on top of termui; a cross-platform, easy-to-compile, and fully-customizable terminal dashboard. It is inspired by blessed-contrib, but purely in Go.

IP address 0.0.0.0

How to setup ip address in portainer to access containers? Environments > local (or whatever your environment is named) there you set your public ip.

Templates

DockerUI (Deprecated, Development continues at Portainer)

https://github.com/kevana/ui-for-docker. A quick start:

  1. Run: 
    docker run -d -p 9000:9000 --privileged \
    -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock uifd/ui-for-docker
    where -v means to bind mount a volume.
  2. Open your browser to http://<dockerd host ip>:9000

Note: Anyone in the local network can access the website without any authentication.

Rancher

Seagull

https://youtu.be/TuT5gb8oRw8 

docker run -d -p 127.0.0.1:10086:10086 -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock tobegit3hub/seagull

The only issue is there is no username/password to protect other people to access the web GUI. The solution of binding to localhost to restrict the access does not work for remote administration.

That is, the tool is suitable for home use.

Kitematic (Mac, Windows and Ubuntu)

Owned by Docker. Available for Mac OS X 10.8+ and Windows 7+ (64-bit) and Ubuntu. https://github.com/docker/kitematic/releases/

Run containers through a simple, yet powerful graphical user interface.

It can not connect to remote docker machines.

Singularity and HPC systems

  • Old URL at singularity.lbl.gov
  • Singularity enables users to have full control of their environment; Singularity containers let users run applications in a Linux environment of their choosing. No 'sudo' is needed in general unless you want to build a container from a recipe.
  • Containers are more like an executable file for you to use
  • Containers are stored under the current location. It does not have a centre location (like /etc/default/docker if we use docker) to store images.
  • Can convert Docker containers to Singularity and run containers directly from Docker Hub
  • These bind points cannot be created unless the path already exists within the container. To ensure access to these storage spaces and remedy bind point errors, create these directories in the %post section of your Bootstrap file.
  • Singularity Hub

Comparison of docker and singularity commands:

docker singularity
$ docker pull ubuntu:latest
$ docker pull broadinstitute/gatk3:3.8-0		 $ singularity pull docker://ubuntu:latest
$ singularity pull docker://broadinstitute/gatk3:3.8-0
$ docker build -t myname/myapp:latest -f Dockerfile $ singularity build myapp.sif myapp.def
$ docker shell (not exist) $ singularity shell docker://broadinstitute/gatk3-3.8-0
$ singularity shell gatk3-3.8-0.img
> ls # the default location depends on the host system

> ls /usr # this is from the container

$ singularity shell --bind ~/Downloads:/mnt XXX.img
$ singularity shell docker://ubuntu:latest
# container is ephemeral

$ docker run --name test -it ubuntu date

# The next example is similar to 'singularity exec'
$ docker run --rm -i -t \
-v $(pwd):/usr/my_data \
broadinstitute/gatk3:3.8-0 \
bash /usr/my_data/myscript.sh		 $ singularity run gatk3-3.8-0.img date
$ docker run --name ubuntu_bash --rm -i -t ubuntu bash
$ docker exec -d ubuntu_bash touch /tmp/execWorks		 # Most useful
$ singularity exec gatk3-3.8-0.img java -version
$ singularity exec xxx.img cat /etc/*release
$ singularity exec docker://rocker/tidyverse:latest R
$ singularity exec docker://rocker/tidyverse:latest Rscript myScript.R

Cache

When we run singularity exec docker://rocker/tidyverse:latest R, it will save something in the cache in our system.

It seems to be OK after I manually delete the directory $HOME/.singularity (tested in Biowulf).

RStudio

$ singularity exec docker://rocker/tidyverse:latest R
$ singularity exec docker://rocker/tidyverse:latest Rscript myScript.R

Shifter

Conda

Anaconda

Bioconda

Using docker to install conda (https://conda.io/docs/user-guide/tutorials/index.html) 

$ docker run -t -i --name test --net=host ubuntu bash
# apt-get update
# apt-get install -y wget bzip2 python
# wget https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/Miniconda2-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
# wget https://repo.continuum.io/archive/Anaconda2-5.1.0-Linux-x86_64.sh
# bash Miniconda2-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
# bash Anaconda2-5.1.0-Linux-x86_64.sh
# exit

$ docker start test 
$ docker exec -i -t test bash
# conda list  # WORKS!
# conda config --add channels r
# conda config --add channels defaults
# conda config --add channels conda-forge
# conda config --add channels bioconda
# conda install bwa  (Segmentation fault. Core dumped)
# which bwa
/root/anaconda2/bin/bwa
# conda install r   (Only get 3.4.2 but the latest is 3.4.3.)
# conda install bowtie
# bowtie --version
# conda install gatk (https://bioconda.github.io/recipes/gatk/README.html)
   (Due to license restrictions, this recipe cannot distribute and install GATK directly)
   (R is downgraded to 3.2.2:( )
   (Segmentation fault. Core dumped)
# exit
# docker stop test
# docker rm test

Get miniconda image instead of using a Ubuntu image 

$ docker pull continuumio/miniconda
$ docker run -i -t continuumio/miniconda /bin/bash
# conda install r   (get 3.4.2)
# conda config --add channels bioconda
# conda install bwa  (OK, no error)
# conda install gatk  (R was downgraded to 3.2.2, install openjdk 8.0.121)
# which gatk
/opt/conda/bin/gatk
# gatk -h
GATK jar file not found. Have you run "gatk-register"?

Issues:

  • R version is not up to date
  • So the problem is installing GATK requires an installation of R and the current R was affected.

CoreOS

Installation

We first boot a liveCD from any OS (CentOS works but Ubuntu 16.04 gave errors). In Virtualbox, we choose 'Red Hat' if we use CentOS.

Once the VM is created. We go to the settings. Create a bridged network or host-only network first (even we can get files from the host without creating a host-only network). Storage: choose CentOS-7.

  1. Get the install script from Github and create <coreos_install.sh> and chmod +x
  2. create <cloud-config.yaml> file which will include ssh_authorized_keys generated from another machine. It should also contain a new token for the cluster from https://discovery.etcd.io/new.
  3. ls -l /dev/sd*
  4. run sudo ./coreos_install.sh -d /dev/sda -C stable -c cloud-config.yaml. It will download the latest stable CoreOS, install to the HD
  5. Don't leave the VM or it will freeze. Issue sudo shutdown -h now once we see the word 'Success' at the last line of the output.
  6. Remove CentOS from the VM storage. Boot the coreOS VM.

The new screen shows corebm1 login with an IP. Go back to another machine and type ssh -i /tmp/CoreOSBM_rsa [email protected]. Inside CoreOS, we can type docker images.

The 'cloud-config.yaml file has to follow the format in https://coreos.com/os/docs/latest/cloud-config.html. Use the online validator https://coreos.com/validate/ to correct. At first I use the file from the youtube video. There is no error coming out when I ran the installation script. But I cannot connect to coreOS. The cloud-config.yaml file I use is (pay attention to '-', double quotes and indent characters) 

#cloud-config
#
# set hostname
hostname: CoreBM1

# Set ssh key
ssh_authorized_keys:
  - "ssh-rsa AAAAB3 ..... brb@T3600"

coreos:
  etcd:
    discovery: "https://discovery.etcd.io/d3e95 .... "
# sudo ./installos -d /dev/sda -C stable -c cloud-config.yaml

Podman

  • Podman Installation Instructions
    • How To Install Podman Desktop In Linux
    • Raspberry Pi OS use the standard Debian's repositories, so it is fully compatible with Debian's arm64 repository. You can simply follow the steps for Debian to install Podman.
  • Podman vs docker:
    • One of the main differences between Podman and Docker is their architecture. Docker uses a client-server architecture with a central daemon that manages containers. In contrast, Podman is daemonless and uses a fork-exec model to manage containers.
    • Podman is designed to run containers without requiring root privileges or the use of sudo. This is one of the key differences between Podman and Docker, as Docker requires root privileges to run containers.
    • Both Podman and Docker are compatible with the Open Container Initiative (OCI) container specification, which means that they can run the same container images. However, Podman is more closely aligned with Kubernetes and its native container runtime, while Docker also works with its own orchestration tool, Docker Swarm.
    • Podman provides several benefits over Docker. For example, Podman is daemon-less, which means that if the Docker daemon crashes, the containers are in an uncertain state. This is prevented by making Podman daemon-less. You can also use systemd to manage your containers with Podman, which gives you virtually unlimited configurability compared to Docker. Hooking Podman with systemd allows you to update running containers with minimal downtime and recover from any bad updates.
  • Podman is a project from Red Hat
  • Getting Started With Podman Desktop, an Open Source Docker Desktop Alternative
  • Podman Compose - Managing Containers
pip3 install podman-compose
But it seems the compatibility is an issue even I tried a small example based on alpine image.
  • Nginx example (works)
podman run -it --rm -d -p 8080:80 \
  --name web \
  -v /mnt/Podman/site-content:/usr/share/nginx/html \
  docker.io/libary/nginx

Tips/trouble shooting

Play with Docker (PWD)

  • Some applications I've tested.
    • webtop (OK)
    • r-base:3.6.3, r-base:4.1.0, r-base:4.1.1 (OK)
    • r-base:4.1.2, r-base:4.2.0 (ERROR: R_HOME ('/usr/lib/R') not found). Maybe the docker version there is too old.
