Dockerfile instructions
When the docker build command is run, Docker reads the provided Dockerfile from top to bottom, creating a separate layer for every instruction and placing it in the internal cache. If an instruction from Dockerfile is updated, it invalidates the respective caching layer and every subsequent one, forcing Docker to rebuild them when the docker build command is run again. Therefore, it's more effective to place the most malleable instructions at the end of Dockerfile, so that the number of invalidated layers is minimized and cache usage is maximized. For example, suppose we have a Dockerfile with the following contents:
$ cat Dockerfile
FROM centos:latest
RUN yum -y update
RUN yum -y install nginx, mariadb, php5, php5-mysql
RUN yum -y install httpd
CMD ["nginx", "-g", "daemon off;"]
In the example, if you choose to use MySQL instead of MariaDB, the layer created by the second RUN command, as well as the third one, will be invalidated, which for complex images means a noticeably longer build process.
Consider the following example. Docker includes images for minimal OSes. These base images can be used to build custom images on top of them. In the example, we will be using a CentOS 7 base image to create a web server container from scratch:
- First, we need to create a project directory:
$ mkdir custom_project; cd custom_project
Then, we create a Dockerfile with the following content:
$ cat Dockerfile
FROM centos:7
RUN yum install httpd -y
COPY index.html /var/www/html/index.html
ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/sbin/httpd","-D","FOREGROUND"]
- Create the index.html file:
$ echo "A new cool image" > index.html
- Build the image using docker build:
$ docker build -t new_httpd_image .

- Finally, we can check that the new image exists and has all the required image layers:
$ docker history new_httpd_image
