Starting at the top, we're going to use Terraform to create a small Docker deployment locally. This is the easiest to show as we have all of the tools we need on our VM, and it doesn't mean I have to tell you to go out and start a free trial on some cloud provider.
Start by creating a directory for us to work in:
$ mkdir example-terraform$ cd example-terraform
Next, shove the following configuration into a main.tf file:
$ cat <<HERE > main.tfprovider "docker" { host = "unix:///var/run/docker.sock"}resource "docker_image" "example-image" { name = "nginx"}resource "docker_container" "example-container" { name = "nginx-example" image = "\${docker_image.example-image.latest}"}HERE
Then, initialize Terraform:
$ sudo /usr/local/bin/terraform ...
