Docker - Ubuntu - bash: ping: command not found

By
Docker images are pretty minimal, But you can install ping in your official ubuntu docker image via:
apt-get update
apt-get install iputils-ping

Chances are you dont need ping your image, and just want to use it for testing purposes. Above example will help you out.

But if you need ping to exist on your image, you can create a Dockerfile or commit the container you ran the above commands in to a new image.

Commit:
docker commit -m "Installed iputils-ping" --author "Your Name <name@domain.com>" ContainerNameOrId yourrepository/imagename:tag

Dockerfile:
FROM ubuntu
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y iputils-ping
CMD bash

How to grep the output of cURL?

By
curl writes the output to stderr, so redirect that and also suppress the progress: curl - v -- silent https :// google . com / 2 >& 1 | grep expire The reason why  curl  writes the information to stderr is so you can do: curl <url> | someprgram  without that information clobbering the input of  someprogram It is possible to use  --stderr -  as parameter, to redirect the output from stderr (default) to stdout. With this option you also should use  --silent  to suppress the progress bar. $ curl - v -- silent https :// google . com / -- stderr - | grep expire * expire date : 2015 - 09 - 01 00 : 00 : 00 GMT
