This script is intended as a convenient way to configure docker's package # repositories and to install Docker Engine, This script is not recommended # for production environments. Before running this script, make yourself familiar # with potential risks and limitations, and refer to the installation manual # at https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ for alternative installation methods.
# # The script:
- Requires `root` or `sudo` privileges to run.
- Attempts to detect your Linux distribution and version and configure your package management system for you.
- Doesn't allow you to customize most installation parameters.
- Installs dependencies and recommendations without asking for confirmation.
- Installs the latest stable release (by default) of Docker CLI, Docker Engine, Docker Buildx, Docker Compose, containerd, and runc. When using this script to provision a machine, this may result in unexpected major version upgrades of these packages. Always test upgrades in a test environment before # deploying to your production systems.
- Isn't designed to upgrade an existing Docker installation. When using the script to update an existing installation, dependencies may not be updated to the expected version, resulting in outdated versions.
