Containers on AWS

Dockerfile

For the purpose of the demo, I’m using the app package here It is a simple express.js hello world app.

1. Open the package and go into the directory
2. To build the image, download the file and go to directory. Then run:

   docker build -t test-image .
   

3. To view the image:

   docker images
   

4. To test the image:

   docker run -d -p 8080:8080 test-image
   

5. You can now open the url http://localhost:8080/ and view “Hello World”.
6. To connect to the container:

   docker exec -i -t test-image /bin/bash
   

7. To remove the container
   1. Stop the container

       docker stop test-image
      

   2. Delete the container

       docker container rm test-image
