| Instructions for installing Docker Desktop Arch package. Mostly meant for hackers who want to try out Docker Desktop on a variety of Arch-based distributions. | Arch Linux, installation, docker, documentation, linux | Install Docker Desktop on Arch-based distributions |
This topic discusses installation of Docker Desktop from an Arch package that Docker provides additionally to the supported platforms.
Prerequisites
Your Arch-based Linux distribution must meet the system requirements to install and launch Docker Desktop successfully.
Install Docker Desktop
- Install client binaries.
Docker does not have an Arch package repository. Binaries not included in the package must be installed manually before installing Docker Desktop.
On Arch-based distributions, users must install the Docker client binary.
Static binaries for the Docker client are available for Linux (as docker).
-
Download the Arch package from the release page.
-
Install the package:
$ sudo pacman -U ./docker-desktop-<version>-<arch>.pkg.tar.zst
Launch Docker Desktop
{% include desktop-linux-launch.md %}
Uninstall Docker Desktop
To remove Docker Desktop for Linux, run:
$ sudo pacman -R docker-desktop
For a complete cleanup, remove configuration and data files at $HOME/.docker/desktop, the symlink at /usr/local/bin/com.docker.cli, and purge
the remaining systemd service files.
$ rm -r $HOME/.docker/desktop
$ sudo rm /usr/local/bin/com.docker.cli
$ sudo apt purge docker-desktop
Remove the credsStore and currentContext properties from $HOME/.docker/config.json. Additionally, you must delete any edited configuration files manually.
