|
## Our training environment
|
|
|
|
- If you are attending a tutorial or workshop:
|
|
|
|
- a VM has been provisioned for each student
|
|
|
|
- If you are doing or re-doing this course on your own, you can:
|
|
|
|
- install Docker locally (as explained in the chapter "Installing Docker")
|
|
|
|
- install Docker on e.g. a cloud VM
|
|
|
|
- use http://www.play-with-docker.com/ to instantly get a training environment

## Our Docker VM
|
|
|
|
*This section assumes that you are following this course as part of
|
|
a tutorial, training or workshop, where each student is given an
|
|
individual Docker VM.*
|
|
|
|
- The VM is created just before the training.
|
|
|
|
- It will stay up during the whole training.
|
|
|
|
- It will be destroyed shortly after the training.
|
|
|
|
- It comes pre-loaded with Docker and some other useful tools.
|

## What *is* Docker?
|
|
|
|
- "Installing Docker" really means "Installing the Docker Engine and CLI".
|
|
|
|
- The Docker Engine is a daemon (a service running in the background).
|
|
|
|
- This daemon manages containers, the same way that an hypervisor manages VMs.
|
|
|
|
- We interact with the Docker Engine by using the Docker CLI.
|
|
|
|
- The Docker CLI and the Docker Engine communicate through an API.
|
|
|
|
- There are many other programs, and many client libraries, to use that API.
|
|
|

|
## Why don't we run Docker locally?
|
|
|
|
- We are going to download container images and distribution packages.
|
|
|
|
- This could put a bit of stress on the local WiFi and slow us down.
|
|
|
|
- Instead, we use a remote VM that has a good connectivity
|
|
|
|
- In some rare cases, installing Docker locally is challenging:
|
|
|
|
- no administrator/root access (computer managed by strict corp IT)
|
|
|
|
- 32-bit CPU or OS
|
|
|
|
- old OS version (e.g. CentOS 6, OSX pre-Yosemite, Windows 7)
|
|
|
|
- It's better to spend time learning containers than fiddling with the installer!

## Connecting to your Virtual Machine
|
|
|
|
You need an SSH client.
|
|
|
|
* On OS X, Linux, and other UNIX systems, just use `ssh`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ ssh <login>@<ip-address>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* On Windows, if you don't have an SSH client, you can download:
|
|
|
|
* Putty (www.putty.org)
|
|
|
|
* Git BASH (https://git-for-windows.github.io/)
|
|
|
|
* MobaXterm (http://moabaxterm.mobatek.net)
|

|
|
$ docker version
