We would like to announce the availability of CentOS Linux docker
images, via the docker index.


===========
Information

To use these images, you will need to first install and start the
docker service. Documentation about this may be found at
http://wiki.centos.org/Cloud/Docker or
https://docs.docker.com/installation/centos/

The kickstarts used to build these images are located at
https://github.com/CentOS/sig-cloud-instance-build.

========
Download

Once docker is running, you can download the images using the command:

docker pull centos

Once docker is finished fetching the images, you can verify them by
using the command:

docker images

This command should display output similar to:


[jperrin at lappy ~]$ docker images
REPOSITORY          TAG                 IMAGE ID            CREATED
          VIRTUAL SIZE

centos              latest              1a7dc42f78ba        5 hours

ago        206.9 MB



=====
Usage

running the default 'centos' image will use the latest release, CentOS-7.

[jperrin at lappy ~]$ docker run -i -t centos /bin/cat /etc/centos-release
CentOS Linux release 7.0.1406 (Core)


To use the CentOS-6 image, you must specify the tag in the command:

[jperrin at lappy ~]$ docker run -i -t centos:centos6 /bin/cat
/etc/centos-release
CentOS release 6.5 (Final)



=====
Thanks

We would like to thank Chris StPierre for his initial work with
docker, and developing the kickstarts used for the build process.
