If you are planning on running these examples, go ahead and download the following images ahead of time so you can see how the commands run without the additional time required to pull down the images the first time: $ docker pull acleancoder / imagemagick - full : latest $ docker pull jasperla / docker - go - cross : latest $ docker pull spkane / dell - openmanage : latest $ docker pull debian : latest $ docker pull spkane / train - os : latest $ docker pull alpine : latest $ docker pull jess / firefox : latest Scenario 1 Using containers for console commands Also, most of the examples assume you have a unix-based operating system, but they can often be adjusted to work on Windows.

Note that all of these were tested on Mac OS X running a current stable release of Docker: Community Edition. You’ll notice that many of these examples utilize file mounts to access data stored on local machines. To get the creative juices flowing and help folks start thinking outside the box, we’ll examine a few scenarios and explore how containers can be used to provide possible solutions.
