Docker install Python


Method 1. Build through Dockerfile

Create Dockerfile

First, create the directory python to store later related things.

php@php:~$ mdkir -p ~/python ~/python/myapp

The myapp directory will be mapped to the application directory configured by the python container

Enter the created python directory and create a Dockerfile

CMD ["python3"]

Create an image through the Dockerfile and replace it with your own Name

php@php:~/python$ docker build -t python:3.5 .

After the creation is completed, we can find the just created image in the local image list

php@php:~/python$ docker images python:3.5 
REPOSITORY          TAG                 IMAGE ID            CREATED             SIZE
python              3.5              045767ddf24a        9 days ago          684.1 MB

Method 2, docker pull python:3.5

Here we pull the official mirror, the label is 3.5

php@php:~/python$ docker pull python:3.5

After waiting for the download to complete, we can find the REPOSITORY as python in the local mirror list, the label is 3.5 mirror.


Use python mirror

Create a helloworld.py file in the ~/python/myapp directory, the code is as follows:

#!/usr/bin/python

print("Hello, World!");

Run the container

php@php:~/python$ docker run  -v $PWD/myapp:/usr/src/myapp  -w /usr/src/myapp python:3.5 python helloworld.py

Command description:

-v $PWD/myapp:/usr/src/myapp:Mount myapp in the current directory on the host to /usr/src/myapp in the container

-w /usr/src/myapp :Specify the /usr/src/myapp directory of the container as the working directory

python helloworld.py :Use the python command of the container to execute the helloworld.py file in the working directory

Output result:

Hello, World!
