This installation procedure for users who are unfamiliar with package
|
|
managers, and just want to try out the Getting Started tutorial while running Docker on Linux. If you are comfortable with package managers, prefer not to use
|
|
`curl`, or have problems installing and want to troubleshoot, please use our
|
|
`apt` and `yum` <a href="/engine/installation/"
|
|
target="_blank">repositories instead for your installation</a>.
|
|
|
|
1. Log into your Ubuntu installation as a user with `sudo` privileges.
|
|
|
|
2. Verify that you have `curl` installed.
|
|
|
|
$ which curl
|
|
|
|
If `curl` isn't installed, install it after updating your manager:
|
|
|
|
$ sudo apt-get update
|
|
$ sudo apt-get install curl
|
|
|
|
3. Get the latest Docker package.
|
|
|
|
$ curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com/ | sh
|
|
|
|
The system prompts you for your `sudo` password. Then, it downloads and
|
|
installs Docker and its dependencies.
|
|
|
|
>**Note**: If your company is behind a filtering proxy, you may find that the
|
|
>`apt-key`
|
|
>command fails for the Docker repo during installation. To work around this,
|
|
>add the key directly using the following:
|
|
>
|
|
> $ curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com/gpg | sudo apt-key add - |
