Docker + Spring Boot Interview Guide

1. Docker Basics

Docker is a platform to package, distribute, and run applications in lightweight containers.

- Image: Blueprint of the container.

- Container: Instance of an image.

- Dockerfile: Script that defines how to build the image.

- Docker Hub: Public registry of Docker images.

2. Common Docker Commands

- docker --version : Check Docker version

- docker ps : List running containers

- docker ps -a : List all containers

- docker start/stop/restart ID : Manage container lifecycle

- docker run -d -p 8080:80 --name mycontainer nginx : Run container in background

- docker rm / rmi ID : Remove container/image

- docker build -t name:tag . : Build image from Dockerfile

- docker exec -it ID /bin/bash : Access running container shell

3. Dockerfile Example

FROM ubuntu

WORKDIR /app

COPY . .

RUN apt-get update

CMD ["node", "[Link]"]

EXPOSE 3000

4. Docker Compose

A tool for defining and running multi-container Docker apps.

[Link] example:

version: '3'

services:

web:

image: nginx

ports:

- "8080:80"

db:

image: mysql

environment:

MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: example

Commands:

- docker-compose up

- docker-compose down

5. Docker Volumes and Networks

- docker volume create myvol

- docker run -v myvol:/data image

- docker network create mynet

- docker network ls

6. Docker Best Practices

- Use small base images (e.g., Alpine)

- One process per container

- Use .dockerignore

- Tag images (e.g., myapp:1.0.1)

7. Dockerizing a Spring Boot Project

Steps:

1. Build your project:

mvn clean install

2. Create Dockerfile:

FROM openjdk:17-jdk-slim

WORKDIR /app

COPY target/[Link] [Link]

ENTRYPOINT ["java", "-jar", "[Link]"]

3. Build Docker Image:

docker build -t my-springboot-app .

4. Run Docker Container:

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 --name springapp my-springboot-app
