4. Build a Docker image

Use the docker build command to build the image:

 <code>docker build -t <image-name> <path-to-dockerfile></path-to-dockerfile></image-name></code>

• <image-name></image-name> : Mirror name
• <path-to-dockerfile></path-to-dockerfile> : Dockerfile path

5. Run the Docker container

Run the container using the docker run command:

 <code>docker run -it --rm --name <container-name> <image-name></image-name></container-name></code>

• <container-name></container-name> : container name
• <image-name></image-name> : Mirror name
• -it : Interactive terminal
• --rm : Delete the container after exiting
• --name : Assign a name to the container (optional)

hint

• Use docker ps to view the running container.
• Stop the container using docker stop <container-name></container-name> .
• Use docker rm <container-name></container-name> to delete the container.
• Use docker image ls to view built images.
• Use docker image rm <image-name></image-name> to delete the image.
