In order to create an application for Kubernetes deployment, we need to first create the application on the Docker. This can be done in two ways −
- By downloading
- From Docker file
By Downloading
The existing image can be downloaded from Docker hub and can be stored on the local Docker registry.
In order to do that, run the Docker pull command.
$ docker pull --help Usage: docker pull [OPTIONS] NAME[:TAG|@DIGEST] Pull an image or a repository from the registry -a, --all-tags = false Download all tagged images in the repository --help = false Print usage
Following will be the output of the above code.
The above screenshot shows a set of images which are stored in our local Docker registry.
If we want to build a container from the image which consists of an application to test, we can do it using the Docker run command.
$ docker run –i –t unbunt /bin/bash
From Docker File
In order to create an application from the Docker file, we need to first create a Docker file.
Following is an example of Jenkins Docker file.
FROM ubuntu:14.04

ADD ./dockerjenkins.sh /usr/local/bin/dockerjenkins.sh
RUN chmod +x /usr/local/bin/dockerjenkins.sh
VOLUME /var/lib/docker
EXPOSE 8080
ENTRYPOINT [ "/usr/local/bin/dockerjenkins.sh" ]
Once the above file is created, save it with the name of Dockerfile and cd to the file path. Then, run the following command.
$ sudo docker build -t jamtur01/Jenkins .
Once the image is built, we can test if the image is working fine and can be converted to a container.
$ docker run –i –t jamtur01/Jenkins /bin/bash
