Developing with Docker

Chapter 2. Installing Docker

In this chapter, we will find out how to install Docker on Windows, Mac OS, and Linux operating systems. There will also be step-by-step instructions on how to set up Docker in the cloud and Amazon EC2 will be used as an example. Next, we will run the sample hello-world image to verify the setup and check whether everything works fine after the installation process. We are going to cover the following topics in this chapter:

  • Hardware requirements for running Docker
  • Installing on Windows
  • Installing on Mac OS
  • Installing on Linux
  • Installing on the Amazon AWS cloud

Docker installation is quite straightforward, but there are some things you will need to focus on to make it run. We will point them out to make the installation process painless.

Tip

It's worth mentioning that Linux is the natural environment for Docker. The Docker engine is built on top of the Linux kernel. To make it run on Windows or Mac OS, the Linux kernel needs to be virtualized.

The Docker...

Hardware requirements

To use Docker, you will need some reasonably new machine, that supports hardware-level virtualization: VT-x for Intel-based PCs and AMD-V for AMD processors. Most of the Mac machines support it out of the box, but for PC you will need to make sure it's turned on and perhaps enable it in the BIOS settings. It will be different for different BIOS, just look for VT-x / AMD-V switch.

In Windows 8, you can check virtualization support in the task manager in the Performance tab:

Hardware requirements

If you want to check whether your PC supports the hardware level virtualization in Windows 7, look for Microsoft Hardware-Assisted Virtualization Detection Tool. Its free, tiny utility is used to check whether your system supports virtualization. Download and run it to see the report:

Hardware requirements

If the report is different for you, saying that hardware-assisted virtualization is not enabled, you will need to check the BIOS settings on your machine, maybe the hardware-assisted virtualization support is...

Installing on Windows

Docker up-to-date installation guides are always available on the https://www.docker.com/ website. Head to the Get started with Docker section and pick the installation guide according to your operating system: Windows, Mac OS, or Linux.

As it was already mentioned in the previous chapter, you have two options for installing Docker on Windows, it will be the Docker Toolbox, running on almost all versions of Windows or Docker For Windows, which will run only on Windows 10 or later. Also, even if you are running Windows 10, there are some additional requirements: it must be a 64-bit Windows 10 Pro, Enterprise and Education (1511 November update, Build 10586 or later). With native versions of Docker installation packages (either Docker for Windows or Docker for Mac), you can go with the stable channel, which is fully tested and reliable or the beta channel, and contains some experimental features that the Docker team currently works on, but can be a little unstable...

Installing on Mac OS

Docker installation on Mac OS is very similar to the installation on a Windows PC. Again, you have two options here. If your Mac is from 2010 or later and runs Yosemite or newer Mac OS, you can pick the Docker for Mac installation. Again, the same as with native Docker for Windows, you can select the stable or beta channel. Unless you want to experience the excitement of new features and bugs available in Beta, you should pick the Stable version. Docker for Mac is a native application, you just copy it to your /Applications folder, just like any other Mac application, as can be seen in the following screenshot:

Installing on Mac OS

If you run the installed Docker.app, you will see a whale icon in the menu toolbar of your Mac OS:

Installing on Mac OS

The same note as for native Docker for Windows applies also for Docker for Mac: Kitematic is no longer part of the installation package. However, it's still compatible with Docker for Mac—you just need to download it separately and put it into the...

Installing on Linux

As we have said before, Linux is the natural habitat for Docker. Therefore, there is no need to virtualize the Linux kernel. You can run Docker without VT-x or similar technologies in your processor, since Docker only requires cgroups to be available on the kernel to get the majority of its features working. Cgroups (control groups) is a Linux kernel feature that limits, accounts for, and isolates the resource usage (CPU, memory, disk I/O, network, and so on) of a collection of processes. Docker will simply use the kernel of your own operating system. This also makes the installation package smaller—there is no need for a virtualization engine and another virtualized operating system. This is the reason that the installation process is a little bit different from the one on Mac OS or Windows. First, there is no Docker Machine included in the installation—it's simply not mandatory for Linux. Second, there is no fancy GUI installer. You will...

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
