Docker Setup

The docker engine is a prerequisite to build the docker images.

Setup Docker

Follow the instructions to install the docker engine on your local system. The docker version 20.10.10 or later is required for full features.

curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh
sh get-docker.sh

It is recommended that you complete the post-installation steps to manage docker as a non-root user.

Setup Proxies

If you are behind a firewall, complete the following steps to setup the proxies:

sudo mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d
printf "[Service]\nEnvironment=\"HTTP_PROXY=$http_proxy\" \"HTTPS_PROXY=$https_proxy\" \"NO_PROXY=$no_proxy\"\n" | sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/proxy.conf
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl restart docker

Docker Login

Optionally, login to your dockerhub account so that you can pull images from dockerhub.
