Docker

Opening up bash inside the docker container

docker run --name ${container_name} -it ${image_name}:${tag} /bin/bash

Commit the updated container

Commit the updated container as a new tag of a version We can create an entirely new image using the current state of the container.

docker commit ${container_name/container_hash} ${image_name}:${tag}

Running a python script inside the container

If the container is not up

The code below would spin up a new container from a docker image and run a python script inside it, and then remove the container

docker run --name ${container_name} ${image_name}:${tag} python /path/to/script/inside/container.py && docker rm ${container_name};

If the container is up and running

docker exec ${container_name} /path/to/script/inside/container.py
