Docker install?

So im trying to begin working with docker as it seems pretty popular, helpful and pretty cool actually. So I looked into installing it but can’t seem to figure out how, the ‘sudo apt-getinstall docker’ doesn’t do it, and any of the packages on the site go on about Jessie/Wheezy etc, but since this is ‘testing’ Idon’t see much about that, so can anyone point me in the right direction or help me out? Much appreciated.

Have you tried the ‘Jessie or newer’ method from here?
https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/docker-ce/debian/#set-up-the-repository

I did try that but anytime I try to ‘sudo apt-get install docker-ce’ it says it’s not available, but it referred to by another package. I had found this link here and chose jessia/pool/stable/ and grabbed the latest .deb file. It install OK, but when I run ‘sudo docker run hello-world’ to see if it installed I just get this:

$ sudo docker run hello-world Unable to find image 'hello-world:latest' locally docker: Error response from daemon: Get https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/: net/http: request canceled while waiting for connection (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers). See 'docker run --help' .

Strange indeed but this seems more like a docker issue then a package or install problem.

Hm, alright, ill try and post about it on their Subreddit or something. Thanks for the help. :slight_smile:

That link there worked for me. I had to get the script and run it as root, it installed for me no issue.
