# Misc Notes ## Docker - volumes - Creates a mapping between physical machine code and container working directory code - services - How many services we want to run - Dockerfile - A Dockerfile is a text document that contains all the commands a user could call on the command line to assemble an image - depends_on - Indicate what this services uses - Image - A Docker image is a read-only template that contains a set of instructions for creating a container that can run on the Docker platform. It provides a convenient way to package up applications and preconfigured server environments, which you can use for your own private use or share publicly with other Docker users. - build - The docker build command builds Docker images from a Dockerfile and a “context”. A build’s context is the set of files located in the specified PATH or URL.
