Docker Swift Application Example

Docker allows us to execute swift application. In the following example, we are creating a swift file which run by using Docker. It consists of the following steps:

1. Create a directory to organize application files.
$ mkdir swift-docker-app



2. Change Directory
$ cd swift-docker-app



3. Create a Dockerfile

It is required to contains necessary Docker instructions which are used by Docker to create image.

// Dockerfile

4. Create a swift file

Afetr creating a Dockerfile, we are creating a Swift file. This includes only one print statement that will produce the output when Docker images is run.

// index.swift

print(“Hello from swift”)
5. Create Docker Image

Now. Follow the following command to build Docker image.

$ docker build -t swift-app .



6. Running the Docker Image
$ docker run swift-app
