Install specific version of Docker

[jdiamond]

Is there or can there be a way to install a specific version of Docker using the get.docker.com scripts?

Maybe by putting the version number in an env var?

curl -sSL https://get.docker.com/ubuntu/ | DOCKER_VERSION=1.3.3 sh

Or using a specific path?

curl -sSL https://get.docker.com/1.3.3/ubuntu/ | sh

Thanks.

echo deb http://get.docker.com/ubuntu docker main > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list

apt-key adv --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 36A1D7869245C8950F966E92D8576A8BA88D21E9

apt-get update
apt-get install -y lxc-docker-1.3.3

Thanks, I will try it out.

This was super helpful in pinning to 1.6 for a moment while we figure out an error I haven't been able to diagnose for 1.7 yet. Thank you @tianon!

Why such important information wasn't post on the official website?
F*ck!

Is there any means to do something similar to what you did @tianon for OS X?

[tianon]

@ybur-yug yeah, https://get.docker.com/builds/Darwin/x86_64/docker-VERSION, ie https://get.docker.com/builds/Darwin/x86_64/docker-1.6.1

[rgbkrk]

If you want it for only client tooling, you can also use the Docker Version Manager (dvm) to get Docker versions.

@tianon @rgbkrk thanks a ton!
