Introduction
Hi, I am Akshay Rao this is the part II of container manipulations. I had written the blog on basic manipulation.
I will leave the link of the previous in the conclusion.
I have used Go app for demonstration purposes.
How to Restart a Container
Here there can be two situations
- Restating a stoped or killed container
- Rebooting a running container
To restart a stopped or killed container we can use container start command
docker container start “identifier”
docker container start akshay_rao
akshay_rao
akshayrao@HL00802 ~ % docker container ls -a

Rebooting a container
docker conatiner restart “indentifier”
docker container restart akshay_rao
akshay_rao
How to Create a Container Without Running
docker container create “image-name”
docker container create -p 8080:8080 aksrao1998/first-go-project

How to Remove Dangling Containers
Container rm command is used when un-necessary container are there.
docker container rm “container-identifier”
There is also option —rm for container run and container start commands which will remove the containers as soon as they are stopped.
docker container run —rm -p 8080:8080 —name remove_it aksrao1998/first-go-project
How to Run a Container in Interactive Mode
Sometimes we have to execute commands inside the container, -it option is used to get acccess to the STDERR.
Any interactive program inside a container can be interacted with using the -it option. This choice is actually the combination of two distinct choices.
You can send inputs to bash by connecting to the container's input stream using the -i or —interactive option.
By allocating a pseudo-tty, the -t or —tty option ensures that you receive good formatting and a native terminal-like experience.
How to Work With Executable Images
The program running inside the container is isolated from the local host file system so to grant direct access used bind mounts.
By using a bind mount, you can create a two-way data connection between the contents of one directory (the source) on your local file system and another directory inside a container (destination). The source directory will benefit from any modifications made to the destination directory in this manner, and vice versa.
—volume or -v “”local file system directory absolute path:”container file system directory absolute path”:”read write access”
Conclusion
I have covered most of the container manipulation.
