$ docker run --name some-ghost -d ghost
This will start a Ghost instance listening on the default Ghost port of 2368.
If you'd like to be able to access the instance from the host without the container's IP, standard port mappings can be used:
$ docker run --name some-ghost -p 8080:2368 -d ghost
Then, access it via http://localhost:8080
or http://host-ip:8080
in a browser.
You can also point the image to your existing content on your host:
$ docker run --name some-ghost -v /path/to/ghost/blog:/var/lib/ghost ghost
Alternatively you can use a data container that has a volume that points to /var/lib/ghost
and then reference it:
$ docker run --name some-ghost --volumes-from some-ghost-data ghost
This image is officially supported on Docker version 1.12.0.
