Link images on Docker Hub

Question

I want push my app in a docker image on docker hub, but my app needs a database. How do I automatic link my app with a database image (postgres) in docker hub?

Obs: Docker hub doesn't support docker compose.

Answer 1

As others have already mentioned, this isn't really the purpose of Docker Hub. Docker Hub stores and provides publicly accessible container images that developers can use to build complete applications from, using tools like Docker Compose.

However, with that in mind, you'll want to keep an eye on the new Docker Store, which is currently promising to provide full-featured applications running in Docker containers.

Here's a blog post that talks about it: https://blog.docker.com/2016/06/docker-store/
