A Docker Image with multiple languages installed. Useful as an alternative to creating a bunch of temp or test files when experimenting with a language. Simply book up the container and do your code experiments inside it. Exit the container when done, leaving no files for you to go and clean up later :)
Prereq: Before you begin, make sure you have installed Git and Docker.
- Clone the repository with
git clone https://github.com/programming-liftoff/docker-playground.git - cd into the directory by typing
cd docker-playground/ - Build the image by typing
docker build -t playground:latest . - Start a bash shell in the container by typing
docker run --rm -it playground
At the beginning of the Dockerfile, some enviroment variable are set with the following lines:
ENV username andrew
ENV password pass
ENV rootpassword toor
When the container loads a shell, it will load to user andrew, with the password set to pass. The password for the root user is set to toor.
If you wish to change these values, simply change them in this one place and rebuild the image with docker build -t playground:latest . to update the container's settings.
