I tried it

Installing docker on ubuntu 20


            $  sudo apt update
            $  sudo apt install docker.io

_{* This method installs from official ubuntu repositories}

Verify the installed version


            $  docker --version

Enable docker on system reboot


            $  sudo systemctl enable --now docker


            $  sudo docker login

Verify docker run


            $ docker run hello-world

Basic docker commands

List docker information


            $  docker info

List docker images


            $  docker images

List docker containers


            $  docker ps

Kill a container


            $  docker kill <container-name>

Start a non-running container


            $  docker start <container-name>

Stop a container


            $  docker stop <container-name>

Docker volumes

Docker volumes are used by docker containers for persisting data. Volumes are completely managed by docker itself and are easier to backup, share and it works on any platform.

Create a docker volume


            $  docker volume create <volume name>

List available docker volumes


            $  docker volume ls

Inspect a docker volume


            $  docker volume inspect <volume name>

Running Jenkins on docker

Pull the official jenkins LTS docker image


            $  docker pull jenkins/jenkins:lts

for a lighter image size use alpine-based image


            $  docker pull jenkins/jenkins:lts-alpine

Run the jenkins image with a mounted volume and as a name container for configuration persistence


            $  docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -v jenkins-dev:/var/jenikins_home --name jenkins-dev jenkins/jenkins:lts-alpine

_{* here "jenkins-dev" is given name to both the newly created docker
volume and the jenkins container}

Verify if the container is running successfully at http://<hostname>:8080

During the first run Jenkins would require an administrator password, this can be found at /var/jenkins_home/secrets/initialAdminPassword and can be fetched through this command -


            $  docker exec <container-name> cat /var/jenkins_home/secrets/initialAdminPassword

Installing apache2 on Ubuntu


        $ sudo apt update 
        $ sudo apt install apache2

Apache comes with a default site. The contents are located at /var/www/html and its settings are in a Virtual Host file at /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf

Create directory for the new site


        $ mkdir /var/mysite

Creating the virtual host for the new site

Clone the configuration file of default site for the new site


        $ cd /etc/apache2/sites-available/
        $ cp 000-default.conf mysite.conf

Edit the new configuration file to update the new port number(optional), ServerAdmin, DocumentRoot & add Permissions


        $ sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite.conf

The configuration file should look something like this -


        <VirtualHost *:8081>
          ServerAdmin dev@localhost
          DocumentRoot /var/mysite
  
          <Directory /var/mysite>
              Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
              AllowOverride All
              Require all granted
          </Directory>
  
          ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
          CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
  
          #Include conf-available/serve-cgi-bin.conf
        </VirtualHost>

Configure apache to listen to the new port


        $ sudo nano /etc/apache2/ports.conf

Add the following lines for the new port


        NameVirtualHost *:8081
        Listen 8081

Activate the virtual host


        $ sudo a2ensite mysite.conf

Reload the apache service to load new configuration


        $ sudo systemctl reload apache2
        or
        $ sudo service apache2 reload

Test the new site at http://<hostname>:8081/
