This example presents a shell script that removes all exited Docker containers. It shows the command sequence for identifying stopped containers and cleaning them up in one step. The script uses the Docker command-line API with `docker ps --filter status=exited -q` to list container IDs in quiet mode, then passes those IDs to `docker rm` for deletion. The rendering approach is purely textual, displaying the essential command and its immediate purpose in a straightforward, copy-paste format.

Gist 45b1d0eee3b96bfbdd5d04e93a40048c

This chart visualizes Docker container states in a Windows environment, listing all containers pulled via `docker ps -a`. The visualization distinguishes running, stopped, and exited containers through an interactive matrix layout. The code relies on D3.js for rendering and animation, using `d3.forceSimulation` for node positioning and `d3.geoPath` for drawing container status paths. Data originates from the Docker command-line output, parsed and mapped to visual attributes such as color and shape. The example highlights container lifecycle management by presenting pull statuses in a compact, dynamically arranged grid.

Docker notes

This visualization presents Docker command syntax as an interactive reference, organizing the gist’s structured notes into a force-directed network. Using d3.forceSimulation, it positions nodes for commands, options, and objects, with links encoding the relationships between root commands, their flags, and use cases. The layout clusters commands by category—containers, general, and images—while tooltips reveal full syntax and descriptions from the markdown source. The rendering relies on D3’s SVG and simulation APIs to create a browsable graph of the CLI’s command hierarchy.

Dockerfile entrypoint to just run

This example demonstrates a Dockerfile that uses an `ENTRYPOINT` of `["tail", "-f", "/dev/null"]` to keep a container running indefinitely after it starts. It shows a minimal, practical pattern for maintaining a persistent container process without needing an application to run. The code relies solely on the Dockerfile’s `ENTRYPOINT` instruction, invoking the `tail` command with the `-f` flag to follow the null device, which yields no output while preventing the container from exiting.

Docker for Data Science

This example documents a practical workflow for containerizing data science environments with Docker, covering local macOS setups and remote Amazon EC2 instances. It shows shell commands for pulling Kaggle’s Python and R images, running Jupyter or RStudio servers with memory and CPU limits, and installing tools like tmux, htop, and pyspark inside containers. For EC2, it details mounting EBS volumes, configuring security groups, and enabling GPU access via nvidia-docker, including driver installation and clock optimization for K80 cards. The source is a markdown note with command snippets, not an interactive visualization.

Gist 1487e9082b7aaf6a45007d66fc0a7697

This example demonstrates a terminal-based workflow for running an Ubuntu Docker container on a Windows host. The visualization is a step-by-step textual tutorial, not a graphical chart, showing the commands necessary to pull the official Ubuntu image from Docker Hub and execute it interactively. The code relies on the Docker command-line interface and `winpty` utility to facilitate a pseudo-terminal session, with the primary command being `winpty docker run -i -t ubuntu bash`. The output presents the three required steps as a simple, linear sequence, with the final step noting the interactive shell session is ready for use.

Gist 20b9219bcfa5ee87411a30118d3b6163

This example shows a shell script that automates the deployment of a Dockerized application on a fresh Ubuntu server. The script installs Docker and Docker Compose, creates a project directory, and copies a `docker-compose.yml` file into it. It then sets up a systemd service to run the compose file on boot and starts the application. The code uses `curl` to fetch remote files, `usermod` for user permissions, and `systemctl` to enable the service, with the actual container orchestration handled by `docker-compose` and `docker` commands.

Backup/Save all Docker Images to a compressed file

This visualization example shows a shell script that backs up every Docker image on the system to a compressed file. It demonstrates a practical workflow for system administration rather than a graphical chart. The script uses the `docker images` command to list images, filters out lines with "none" tags, and extracts image names with `awk`. It then loops through each image, transforms the name into a filename by replacing slashes and colons with hyphens, and saves the image using `docker save` piped through `pigz` for gzip compression with best quality. The process runs in real time as each image is processed sequentially.

Install Docker on Linux Mint

This visualization demonstrates a shell script that installs Docker on Linux Mint by adding the Docker APT repository and installing the `docker.io`, `cgroup-lite`, and `apparmor` packages. The script checks for HTTPS transport support via `/usr/lib/apt/methods/https`, installs `apt-transport-https` if missing, and uses `apt-key adv` to import the repository key. It also adds the current user to the `docker` group with `usermod`. The code uses standard bash commands and APT APIs, with an optional fallback to the curl-able installer at get.docker.com.
