Docker Image with Python Application

We shall learn to build a docker image with python application, and save the docker image to a file for usage in different computer.

Build Docker Image with Python Application

1. Create a directory

A separate directory is useful to organise docker applications. For this Python Example, create a directory somewhere with name of your choice. We shall use the name python-application

2. Create Python Application

Create a simple Python File, in the directory python-application, with name PythonExample.py containing the following content :

print("HelloWorld from Python Applicaiton in Docker")

3. Create Dockerfile

Create a file with name Dockerfile. Dockerfile contains instructions to prepare Docker image with our Python Application.

Application.

Following is the content of Dockerfile.

FROM python COPY . /src CMD ["python", "/src/PythonExample.py"]

4. Build Docker Image

Run the following command in Terminal, from python-application directory, to create Docker Image with Python Application.

$ docker build -t python-application .

root@arjun-VPCEH26EN:/home/arjun/workspace/docker/python-application# docker build -t python-applic Sending build context to Docker daemon 3.072kB Step 1/3 : FROM python latest: Pulling from library/python aa18ad1a0d33: Pull complete 15a33158a136: Pull complete f67323742a64: Pull complete c4b45e832c38: Pull complete b71152c33fd2: Pull complete d8eff2a5d585: Pull complete f80b3bd3dbda: Pull complete e5b3e7f65920: Pull complete Digest: sha256:2cbebfb9309a8b7b31c2fea8813436e297855f91cedd9cc28582678da905e5e0 Status: Downloaded newer image for python:latest ---> 26acbad26a2c Step 2/3 : COPY . /src ---> 702fd061cbd3 Removing intermediate container f9a28d25df1e Step 3/3 : CMD python /src/index.py ---> Running in 4e9ad3906a79 ---> 71deae3e7961 Removing intermediate container 4e9ad3906a79 Successfully built 71deae3e7961 Successfully tagged python-application:latest root@arjun-VPCEH26EN:/home/arjun/workspace/docker/python-application#

Docker image with python application is created successfully.

5. Check the docker image

To display available docker images, run the following command.

$ docker images

root@arjun-VPCEH26EN:/home/arjun/workspace/docker/python-application# docker images

Run Docker Image with Python Application

root@arjun-VPCEH26EN:/home/arjun/workspace/docker/python-application# docker run python-application HelloWorld from Python Applicaiton in Docker root@arjun-VPCEH26EN:/home/arjun/workspace/docker/python-application#

Save Docker Image to a tar file

Save the Docker Image file to a tar file, so that the image file could be copied to other machines through disk storage devices like pen-drive, etc.

Run the following command to save Docker image as a tar file.

$ docker save -o /home/arjun/workspace/docker/python-application.tar python-application

Saving might take few seconds. Wait for the command to complete.

root@arjun-VPCEH26EN:/home/arjun/workspace/docker# ls java-application python-application python-application.tar root@arjun-VPCEH26EN:/home/arjun/workspace/docker#

Now you may copy or ship the Docker Image file that is having Python Application.

Conclusion

In this Docker Tutorial ? Docker Python Application Example, we have learnt to build a Docker Image with Python Application and also how to save the image to a file and transfer it to other computers or servers.
