Overview of this book

Docker is an open source software platform that helps you with creating, deploying, and running your applications using containers. This book is your ideal introduction to Docker and containerization. You will learn how to set up a Docker development environment on a Linux, Mac, or Windows workstation, and learn your way around all the commands to run and manage your Docker images and containers. You will explore the Dockerfile and learn how to build your own enterprise-grade Docker images. Then you will learn about Docker networks, Docker swarm, and Docker volumes, and how to use these features with Docker stacks in order to define, deploy, and maintain highly-scalable, fault-tolerant multi-container applications. Finally, you will learn how to leverage Docker with Jenkins to automate the building of Docker images and the deployment of Docker containers. By the end of this book, you will be well prepared when it comes to using Docker for your next project.

The rest of the stack commands

Now, let's take a quick look at our other stack-related commands through the lens of the swarm where we deployed our voteapp stack. First up, we have the list stacks command: docker stack ls. Giving that a try looks like this:

# List the stacks deployed in a swarm
docker stack ls

Here is what it looks like in the example environment:

This is showing that we have one stack named voteapp currently deployed, and that it is composed of six services and is using swarm mode for its orchestration. Knowing the name of a deploy stack allows us to gather more information about it using the other stack commands. Next up is the list stack tasks command. Let's give this command a try in our example environment:

# List the tasks for our voteapp stack filtered by desried state
docker stack ps voteapp --filter desired-state=running

Here are the results...
