# Getting Started with Docker Hub
|
|
|
|
*How do I use Docker Hub?*
|
|
|
|
In this section we're going to introduce you, very quickly!, to
|
|
[Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com) and create an account.
|
|
|
|
[Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com) is the central hub for Docker. It
|
|
helps you to manage Docker and its components. It provides services such
|
|
as:
|
|
|
|
* Hosting images.
|
|
* User authentication.
|
|
* Automated image builds and work flow tools like build triggers and web
|
|
hooks.
|
|
* Integration with GitHub and BitBucket.
|
|
|
|
Docker Hub helps you collaborate with colleagues and get the most out of
|
|
Docker.
|
|
|
|
In order to use Docker Hub you will need to register an account. Don't
|
|
panic! It's totally free and really easy.
|
|
|
|
## Creating a Docker Hub Account
|
|
|
|
There are two ways you can create a Docker Hub account:
|
|
|
|
* Via the web, or
|
|
* Via the command line.
|
|
|
|
### Sign up via the web!
|
|
|
|
Fill in the [sign-up form](https://www.docker.io/account/signup/) and
|
|
choose your user name and specify some details such as an email address.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Signup via the command line
|
|
|
|
You can also create a Docker Hub account via the command line using the
|
|
`docker login` command.
|
|
|
|
$ sudo docker login
|
|
|
|
### Confirm your email
|
|
|
|
Once you've filled in the form then check your email for a welcome
|
|
message and activate your account.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Login!
|
|
|
|
Then you can login using the web console:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Or via the command line and the `docker login` command:
|
|
|
|
$ sudo docker login
|
|
|
|
Now your Docker Hub account is active and ready for you to use!
|
|
|
|
