How to run MySQL in a Docker container with dockerfile

I share how we can run MySQL in a docker container from a dockerfile. For some reason, most tutorials do not seem to like docker files, but it is a potent tool, I, therefore, wanted to share how it is done. I showcase the journey from docker file to image to container, and we then jump into the MySQL container to check it is actually working. Commands: Build a docker image: docker build -t [tag] [dockerfile position] Create and or run Docker container docker run [docker image] How to get into a docker container docker exec -it [docker container] /bin/bash My channel publishes programming and software engineering videos, especially Java and Python.
