Docker and Git Commands

Docker Commands

General Docker Maintenance

• Remove all Docker containers:

  docker rm -f $(docker ps -a -q)

  This command forcefully removes all Docker containers, whether they are stopped or running. Useful for cleaning up your environment.

• Remove all Docker images:

  docker rmi $(docker images -a -q)

  This command removes all Docker images from your system. It's a good way to free up disk space after containers have been removed.

Managing Docker Services

• Remove unknown AppArmor profiles:

  sudo aa-remove-unknown

  AppArmor profiles can sometimes cause conflicts with Docker containers. This command removes any unknown profiles to prevent issues.

• Restart Docker service:

  sudo systemctl restart docker.service
  sudo systemctl restart docker

  Use these commands to restart the Docker service. Restarting Docker can resolve issues with container startup or performance.

Working Inside a Docker Container

• Access a running container:

  docker exec -it ragas-container sh

  This command opens an interactive shell inside the ragas-container Docker container, allowing you to execute commands directly within the container.

Running Qdrant on Localhost

• Start Qdrant service:

  docker run -d --name qdrant -p 6333:6333 qdrant/qdrant
  curl http://localhost:6333

  This command starts the Qdrant service in a Docker container and maps it to port 6333 on your localhost. The curl command checks if the service is running.

Building and Running RAGAS

• Build the RAGAS Docker image:

  docker build -t ragas -f ragas/Dockerfile .

  This command builds a Docker image for RAGAS using the Dockerfile located in the ragas directory.

• Run the RAGAS Docker container:

  docker run -it --name ragas ragas

  This command runs the RAGAS Docker container in interactive mode.

• Remove the RAGAS container:

  docker rm -f ragas 2>/dev/null || true

  This command forcefully removes the RAGAS Docker container if it exists, ignoring errors if the container is not found.

Complete Setup Script

• Run the full setup script:

  mkdir -p ragas/eval_dataset ragas/ragas_result ragas/source_data && \
  docker rm -f qdrant && \
  (docker network ls | grep -wq ragas-network || docker network create ragas-network) && \
  docker build -t ragas-pipeline -f ragas/Dockerfile . && \
  docker rm -f ragas-container 2>/dev/null || true && \
  docker run -d --name qdrant --network ragas-network -p 6333:6333 qdrant/qdrant && \
  docker run -it --name ragas-container --network ragas-network \
    -v $(pwd)/ragas/eval_dataset:/app/ragas/eval_dataset \
    -v $(pwd)/ragas/ragas_result:/app/ragas/ragas_result \
    -v $(pwd)/ragas/source_data:/app/ragas/source_data \
    ragas-pipeline

  This script automates the setup process for RAGAS. It creates necessary directories, builds the Docker image, and runs the containers, all within a custom Docker network.

Git Commands

Managing Git Remotes

• Set a new remote URL:

  git remote set-url origin https://your-username:[email protected]/your-repo

  This command updates the remote URL of your Git repository. Useful when you need to push or pull from a different repository or using a new token for authentication.

• Pull the latest changes from the remote repository:

  git pull origin

  This command fetches and integrates the latest changes from the remote repository into your local branch.

Updating Visual Studio Code

Install or Update VSCode

• Install and update Visual Studio Code:

  sudo apt install apt-transport-https
  sudo apt update
  sudo apt install code

  These commands install and update Visual Studio Code on a system running Debian-based Linux distributions.
