Almost a year ago I published a post in which, I wrote about the installation of Docker and Docker Compose using the versions available in the Debian’s repositories. This time, I will describe the proper way to install Docker and Docker Compose in Debian according to its official documentation. In addition, I will cover the configuration of the rootless mode so that containers can be run without root privileges. Those of you who do not have Debian, should check the Docker Engine’s official documentation and follow the instructions for other systems.

This post covers the installation and configuration of Docker and Docker Compose so that we can carry out our tests and projects comfortably using containers. The general steps are compatible almost in their entirety with any Linux distribution, but here I will focus on the instructions for Debian, also applicable to its derivatives such as Ubuntu, Linux Mint, etc. If you use another distribution, you will have to modify the apt commands to fit your package manager.

This time we are going to explore how to improve our workflow in Bash by installing and configuring a series of tools. The general steps are compatible almost in their entirety with any Linux distribution, but here I will focus on the instructions for Debian, also applicable to its derivatives such as Ubuntu, Linux Mint, etc. If you use another distribution, you will have to modify the apt commands to fit your package manager.

Today I am going to show you a very convenient and effective way to stay informed about pending updates on our servers. We will be using a bash script along with a Telegram bot to receive the notifications. The procedure is compatible with any distribution that uses apt as a package manager.
