Docker Install Manjaro

Introduction

In this tutorial, we will walkthrough the steps to install Docker on Manjaro. Docker is a containerization platform that allows developers to package applications along with their dependencies into a container, making it more portable and efficient to deploy.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:

• A Manjaro installation
• Root or sudo privileges

Steps

1. Update your package manager:

   sudo pacman -Syu
   

2. Install Docker:

   sudo pacman -S docker
   

3. Enable the Docker service:

   sudo systemctl enable docker.service
   

4. Start the Docker service:

   sudo systemctl start docker.service
   

5. Verify that Docker is running:

   sudo systemctl status docker.service
   

   You should see a message indicating that Docker is active and running.

6. Test your Docker installation:

   sudo docker run hello-world
   

   This will download a Docker image and run a container based on that image.

Congratulations, you have successfully installed Docker on Manjaro!

Conclusion

Docker is an essential tool for any software developer, allowing for easy containerization and deployment of applications. By following the steps in this tutorial, you should have successfully installed Docker on your Manjaro machine. Happy coding!
