* [`docker run`](https://docs.docker.com/reference/commandline/run) creates and starts a container in one operation.
* [`docker rm`](https://docs.docker.com/reference/commandline/rm) deletes a container.
If you want a transient container, `docker run --rm` will remove the container after it stops.
If you want to map a directory on the host to a docker container, `docker run -v $HOSTDIR:$DOCKERDIR`. Also see [Volumes](https://github.com/wsargent/docker-cheat-sheet/#volumes).
If you want to remove also the volumes associated with the container, the deletion of the container must include the -v switch like in `docker rm -v`.
## Starting and Stopping
* [`docker start`](https://docs.docker.com/reference/commandline/start) starts a container so it is running.

If you want to integrate a container with a [host process manager](https://docs.docker.com/articles/host_integration/), start the daemon with `-r=false` then use `docker start -a`.
If you want to expose container ports through the host, see the [exposing ports](#exposing-ports) section.
