Arch Linux
Installing on Arch Linux can be handled via the package in community:
or the following AUR package:
The docker package will install the latest tagged version of docker. The docker-git package will build from the current master branch.
Dependencies
Docker depends on several packages which are specified as dependencies in the packages. The core dependencies are:
- bridge-utils
- device-mapper
- iproute2
- lxc
- sqlite
Installation
For the normal package a simple
pacman -S docker
is all that is needed.
For the AUR package execute:
yaourt -S docker-git
The instructions here assume yaourt is installed. See Arch User Repository for information on building and installing packages from the AUR if you have not done so before.
Starting Docker
There is a systemd service unit created for docker. To start the docker service:
$ sudo systemctl start docker
To start on system boot:
$ sudo systemctl enable docker
