## exec
Usage: docker exec CONTAINER COMMAND [ARG...]
Run a command in an existing container
-d, --detach=false Detached mode: run the process in the background and exit
-i, --interactive=false Keep STDIN open even if not attached
-t, --tty=false Allocate a pseudo-TTY
The `docker exec` command runs a user specified command as a new process in an existing
user specified container. The container needs to be active.
The `docker exec` command will typically be used after `docker run`.
### Examples:
$ sudo docker run --name ubuntu_bash --rm -i -t ubuntu bash
This will create a container named 'ubuntu_bash' and start a bash session.
$ sudo docker exec -d ubuntu_bash touch /tmp/execWorks
This will create a new file '/tmp/execWorks' inside the existing and active container
'ubuntu_bash', in the background.
$ sudo docker exec ubuntu_bash -it bash
This will create a new bash session in the container 'ubuntu_bash'.
