How to Install Docker on OpenSUSE Latest

Docker is a popular container platform that provides an easy way to run and manage applications in a containerized environment. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Docker on OpenSUSE Latest.

Prerequisites

Before we start with the installation, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:

• A running instance of OpenSUSE Latest
• Sudo access or root user access
• A stable internet connection

Step 1: Update the System

The first step is to update the system by running the following command:

sudo zypper update

This command will update all the packages and dependencies on your OpenSUSE system.

Step 2: Add the Docker Repository

Next, we need to add the Docker repository to our system by running the following command:

sudo zypper addrepo https://download.docker.com/linux/opensuse/15.2/x86_64/stable/ docker

This command will add the Docker repository to your system.

Step 3: Install Docker

Now, we can install Docker on our OpenSUSE Latest system by running the following command:

sudo zypper install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io

This command will install the Docker engine and its command-line interface on your system.

Step 4: Start and Enable the Docker Service

After the installation is completed, we need to start the Docker service and enable it to start at boot time. Run the following commands to achieve that:

sudo systemctl start docker.service
sudo systemctl enable docker.service

This will start the Docker service and enable it to start automatically on system boot.

Step 5: Verify the Installation

Finally, we can verify the installation of Docker by running the following command:

sudo docker version

This command will display the Docker version and other relevant information.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Docker on your OpenSUSE Latest system. You can now start working with Docker containers on your OpenSUSE system.
