Expose A Port

22 Jul 2020

Create Dockerfile

EXPOSE in the Dockerfile with -p in the docker run command makes the container accessible via that port on the host machine.

# Build from base image
FROM ubuntu:latest

# Expose port 11
EXPOSE 11

Build Image From Dockerfile

Build the Dockerfile (docker build) in the current directory (.) and call the image chrisalbon/ubuntu:expose-ports (--tag chrisalbon/big-project:expose-ports).

docker build --tag chrisalbon/big-project:expose-ports .

Run Docker Container From Image

Start and create (docker run) an interative (-it) Docker container called expose-ports (--name copy-example) from the image called chrisalbon/big-project:expose-ports. Publish port 11 inside the contain with port 22 outside the container (-p 11:22). Open a shell (/bin/bash). Remove the container after it stops (-rm).

docker container run -p 11:22 -it  --name expose-port chrisalbon/big-project:expose-ports /bin/bash
