How to cretae an Own Docker Image

How to create a Docker image from base image.

If you want or think to upload an ISO on docker hub than you can it by some following steps:

1. # apt-get install debootstrap.

2. # debootstrap  trusty trusty > /dev/null

3. # tar -C trusty -c . | docker import - trusty

4. # docker run trusty cat /etc/lsb-release.

It will show you the details of your base image.

Run the command to execute the docker image trusty.

#docker run -i -t trusty /bin/bash

Now, just open the new terminal tab and execute the command.

# docker ps

It will show you the trusty docker image with full details.You have to copy the container id and run with the docker commit to commit the docker image.

# docker commit 560d51aabb94 trusty

In my case 560d51aabb94 is the containe ID. you have to replace with yours one.

Now, hit docker images on terminal.It will show you the commit snapshot or you can say that an image.

# docker images

Copy the image-ID for further process.

To push it on docker hub we have to login from comand line by using docker login

#docker login

username: vishald

password: *******

Email: abc@example.com

To push it on Hub we have to execute some commands.

# docker tag 560d51aabb94 vishald/trusty:test

test is just the tag name.

# docker push 560d51aabb94 vishald/trusty

If you want it to test that your docker image which is converted from your base image is working or not.First take a pull from docker hub by using below command.

Faced Issues while running the image

#docker run -i -t vishald/trusty

After execute the above command it gives me the error:-
