Introduction to the command docker config create
The command docker config create in Docker allows you to create a new configuration file for self-built containers. These files can be used for specific settings for applications or services that work well with storage and deployment settings.
Assume you have a web service that connects to a database. Now, to pass connection information to the database without needing to change settings each time, you can use docker config create. This way, you can use a single file repeatedly without needing to modify it every time.
In fact, docker config is a tool for managing configurations and environments that can also work in very large setups. From there, containers can easily manage various configurations, contributing a new service management and applications.
These configurations may include environmental variables, database information, and software settings. For instance, you could create configuration files in YAML or JSON using docker config create that are simply used in container-based applications.
