Run a Docker image as a container

Question

After building a Docker image from a dockerfile, I see the image was built successfully, but what do I do with it? Shouldn\'t i be able to run it as a container

Answer 1

• To list the Docker images

  $ docker images
  

• If your application wants to run in with port 80, and you can expose a different port to bind locally, say 8080:

  $ docker run -d --restart=always -p 8080:80 image_name:version
