Portainer is a popular Docker management tool that enables users to manage and organize their Docker containers, images, networks, and volumes from a graphical user interface. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Portainer on OpenSUSE Latest.
Before installing Portainer, you need to ensure that the following prerequisites are met:
To install Docker on OpenSUSE, run the following command:
sudo zypper install docker
Once the installation is complete, start the Docker daemon by running the following command:
sudo systemctl start docker
You can also enable the Docker service to start automatically at boot time by running the following command:
sudo systemctl enable docker
To install Portainer, you can either use the Docker command-line interface or the Portainer image.
To install Portainer using the Docker CLI, run the following command:
sudo docker run -d -p 9000:9000 -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock portainer/portainer
This command will pull the Portainer image from Docker Hub, create a new container, and bind the host's Docker socket to the container.
If you prefer to use the Portainer image to install Portainer, you can download the image using the following command:
sudo docker pull portainer/portainer
Once the image is downloaded, you can start Portainer using the following command:
sudo docker run -d -p 9000:9000 -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock portainer/portainer
Once Portainer is installed, you can access its web UI by opening a web browser and navigating to the following URL:
http://<your_server_ip>:9000
This will open the Portainer login page. To log in, select the local endpoint option, and provide your Docker credentials.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Portainer on OpenSUSE Latest. You can now manage your Docker containers, images, networks, and volumes using the Portainer web UI.
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!
