Interestingly, you don't need to do any investment. Throughout the tutorial, you will be using Play with Docker (PWD in short) Playground. Cool....Isn't it?
PWD is a Docker playground which allows users to run Docker commands in a matter of seconds. It gives the experience of having a free Alpine Linux Virtual Machine in browser, where you can build and run Docker containers and even create clusters in Docker Swarm Mode. Under the hood Docker-in-Docker (DinD) is used to give the effect of multiple VMs/PCs.
To get started with Docker, follow the below steps:
-
Create Dockerhub Account
-
Click on "Start"
-
This will open up an easy to understand PWD(Play with Docker) tool which displays instances on the left hand side while terminal at the right hand side
-
Click on "Create Instance" to create your first Linux instance
To get started with Docker Swarm, you can use "Play with Docker", aka PWD. It's free of cost and open for all. You get maximum of 5 instances of Linux system to play around with Docker.
-
Open Play with Docker labs on your browser
-
Click on Icon near to Instance to choose 3 Managers & 2 Worker Nodes
- Wait for few seconds to bring up 5-Node Swarm Cluster
We recommend you start with one of our Beginners Guides, and then move to intermediate and expert level tutorials that cover most of the features of Docker. For a comprehensive approach to understanding Docker, I have categorized it as shown below:
Swarm Visualizer is a fancy tool which visualized the Swarm Cluster setup. It displays containers running on each node in the form of visuals. If you are conducting Docker workshop, it's a perfect way to show your audience how the containers are placed under each node. Go..try it out..
git clone https://github.com/dockersamples/docker-swarm-visualizer
cd docker-swarm-visualizer
docker-compose up -d
To run in a docker swarm:
$ docker service create \
--name=viz \
--publish=8080:8080/tcp \
--constraint=node.role==manager \
--mount=type=bind,src=/var/run/docker.sock,dst=/var/run/docker.sock \
