How do I get a Docker container s IP address from the host

Question

I want to get the container's IP address right from the host after a new container is created?

Once Docker creates the container, I want to roll my own code deployment and container configuration scripts.

How do I do it ?

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks

Save your docker image as a tar file:

docker save -o <path for generated tar file> <image name>

After that copy your image to a new system with regular file transfer tools such as cp or scp. Also you will have to load the image into Docker:

docker load -i <path to image tar file>

I hope it would help you resolve your query.
