Docker is a tool designed to make it easier to create, deploy, and run applications by using containers. In this tutorial, we'll walk through the steps needed to install Docker on Manjaro.
Before installing Docker on Manjaro, ensure the following:
First, we'll update the package repository to ensure we're installing the latest software:
sudo pacman -Syu
Next, we'll install Docker using the following command:
sudo pacman -S docker
After installation, we need to enable and start the Docker service. We'll use the following commands:
sudo systemctl enable docker.service
sudo systemctl start docker.service
Finally, we'll verify Docker is running correctly by checking the version:
sudo docker version
If installed correctly, you should see output similar to the following:
Client: Docker Engine - Community
Version: XX.XX.XX
API version: 1.43
Go version: go1.16.x
Built: XX-XX-XXXX
OS/Arch: linux/amd64
Server: Docker Engine - Community
Engine:
Version: XX.XX.XX
API version: 1.43 (minimum version XX.XX)
Go version: go1.16.x
Built: XX-XX-XXXX
OS/Arch: linux/amd64
Experimental: false
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Docker on Manjaro.
In this tutorial, we went through the steps required to install Docker on Manjaro. We updated the package repository, installed Docker, enabled and started the Docker service, and verified the installation. With Docker installed, you can now start working with containers and enjoy the benefits of this efficient and flexible technology.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
