I use Jonathan's setup procedure to install docker & docker-compose. It's very easy way to install.
Install Docker and Docker-Compose on your Raspberry Pi March 6, 2019 jonathan
In this tutorial, we will cover how to install docker and docker-compose on a raspberrypi and run a simple container.
One thing to keep in mind through all of this is that the pi is built on an ARM architecture as opposed to Intel. As a result, you will only be able to run containers built for the ARM architecuture.
Fortunately, Docker Official Images should all support this architecture as per this post
That said, let’s get started.
$ curl -sSL https://get.docker.com | sh
Test that the daemon is working with a classic hello world:
$ docker run --rm hello-world
You should see the following output:
Unable to find image 'hello-world:latest' locally
latest: Pulling from library/hello-world
c1eda109e4da: Pull complete
Digest: sha256:2557e3c07ed1e38f26e389462d03ed943586f744621577a99efb77324b0fe535
Status: Downloaded newer image for hello-world:latest
Hello from Docker!
This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly.
To generate this message, Docker took the following steps:
1. The Docker client contacted the Docker daemon.
2. The Docker daemon pulled the "hello-world" image from the Docker Hub.
(arm32v7)
3. The Docker daemon created a new container from that image which runs the
executable that produces the output you are currently reading.
4. The Docker daemon streamed that output to the Docker client, which sent it
to your terminal.
To try something more ambitious, you can run an Ubuntu container with:
$ docker run -it ubuntu bash
Share images, automate workflows, and more with a free Docker ID: https://hub.docker.com/
For more examples and ideas, visit: https://docs.docker.com/get-started/ If you get a permissions error, be sure to add your user to the docker group:
$ usermod -aG docker <your_user>
And then logout and login again.
Now that we know docker is working, let’s go and grab docker-compose.
$ curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py && sudo python3 get-pip.py
$ sudo apt install python3-distutils
$ sudo apt-get install -y libffi-dev libssl-dev
$ sudo apt-get install -y python3 python3-pip
$ sudo apt-get remove python-configparser
Now install docker-compose with:
$ sudo pip3 install docker-compose
Finally, test that things are working by creating a docker-compose file:
$ vim docker-compose.yml
If you don’t have vim installed, you can grab it with:
$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install vim -y
Now in docker-compose.yml put:
$ vim docker-compose.yml
Add this settings:
version: '3'
services:
webapp:
ports:
- 5000:8000
image: python:3.7-alpine
command: "python -m http.server 8000"
Then start the service with:
$ docker-compose up -d
Now you can curl the service with:
$ curl -iv 0.0.0.0:5000
and you should get a response similar to the following:
* Rebuilt URL to: localhost:5000/
* Trying ::1...
* TCP_NODELAY set
* Connected to localhost (::1) port 5000 (#0)
> GET / HTTP/1.1
> Host: localhost:5000
> User-Agent: curl/7.52.1
> Accept: */*
>
* HTTP 1.0, assume close after body

Provided you get a 200 response, your docker-compose service is up and running!
Now you can bring the service down with docker-compose down, and you’re all done.
In this last step we’re installing Docker Compose.
The official installation method for Linux, as in the Docker documentation, points users to the GitHub downloads page, which however does not offer pre-built binaries for the ARM architecture.
Luckily, we can still easily install Docker Compose from pip:
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install -y python python-pip libffi-dev python-backports.ssl-match-hostname
$ sudo pip install docker-compose
With this, you now have a complete Raspberry Pi mini-server running Docker and ready to accept your containers.
