docker build -t <image-tag> .# Run the Docker container
arguments=(

-p 8080:8080 # Bind ports
-e <environment-variables>
--name <container-name>
<image-tag>
)
docker run "${arguments[@]}"# List containers (Verbose)
docker container list --all
# List containers (Consise)
docker ps --all# Stop the Docker Container
docker stop <container-name># Remove the Docker Container
docker remove <container-name># Stop all containers (Verbose)
docker container stop $(docker container list --all --quiet)
# Stop all containers (Concise)
docker stop $(docker ps -a -q)# Image Prunes
docker container prune --force
docker image prune --force --all
docker volume prune --force --all
# System Prunes
docker system prune --force --all
docker builder prune --force --all# Backup Volume

docker volume ls
docker run --rm -v <volume_name>:/data -v $(pwd):/backup alpine tar -czf /backup/backup.tar.gz -C /data .# Build image for the specified architecture
docker build --platform linux/arm64 -t <image-name>:latest .
# Export image
docker save -o <image-name>.tar <image-name>:latest
# Load image
docker load < <image-name>.tar
# Run image
docker run --platform linux/arm64 --name <container-name> <image-name>:latestInconsistencies
Why there’s images but not containers?
docker image list
docker images
docker container list
docker containers # INVALID
