Flow-2: Create a new Docker Image, Run as Container and Push to Docker Hub

Pre-requisite Steps

  • Create your Docker hub account.
  • https://hub.docker.com/
  • Important Note: In the below listed commands wherever you see stacksimplify you can replace with your docker hub account id.

Step-1: Run the base Nginx container

  • Access the URL http://localhost
    docker run --name mynginxdefault -p 80:80 -d nginx
    docker ps
    docker stop mynginxdefault
    

Step-2: Create Dockerfile and copy our customized index.html

  • Dockerfile
    FROM nginx
    COPY index.html /usr/share/nginx/html
    
  • *index.html
    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
       <body style="background-color:lightgoldenrodyellow;">
          <h1>Welcome to Stack Simplify</h1>
          <p>Docker for Beginners Demo</p>
          <p>Application Version: V1</p>
       </body>
    </html>

Step-3: Build Docker Image & run it

docker build -t stacksimplify/mynginx_image1:v1 .
docker run --name mynginx1 -p 80:80 -d stacksimplify/mynginx_image1:v1

Replace your docker hub account Id
docker build -t <your-docker-hub-id>/mynginx_image1:v1 .
docker run --name mynginx1 -p 80:80 -d <your-docker-hub-id>/mynginx_image1:v1

Step-4: Tag & push the Docker image to docker hub

docker images
docker tag stacksimplify/mynginx_image1:v1 stacksimplify/mynginx_image1:v1-release
docker push stacksimplify/mynginx_image1:v1-release

Replace your docker hub account Id
docker tag <your-docker-hub-id>/mynginx_image1:v1 <your-docker-hub-id>/mynginx_image1:v1-release
docker push <your-docker-hub-id>/mynginx_image1:v1-release

Step-5: Verify the same on docker hub

  • Login to docker hub and verify the image we have pushed
  • Url: https://hub.docker.com/repositories
