     5  # Arch Linux
     6  
     7  Installing on Arch Linux can be handled via the package in community:
     8  
     9   - [docker](https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/docker/)
    10  
    11  or the following AUR package:
    12  
    13   - [docker-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/docker-git/)
    14  
    15  The docker package will install the latest tagged version of docker. The
    16  docker-git package will build from the current master branch.
    17  
    18  ## Dependencies
    19  
    20  Docker depends on several packages which are specified as dependencies
    21  in the packages. The core dependencies are:
    22  
    23   - bridge-utils
    24   - device-mapper
    25   - iproute2
    26   - lxc
    27   - sqlite
    28  
    29  ## Installation
    30  
    31  For the normal package a simple
    32  
    33      pacman -S docker
    34  
    35  is all that is needed.
    36  
    37  For the AUR package execute:
    38  
    39      yaourt -S docker-git
    40  
    41  The instructions here assume **yaourt** is installed. See [Arch User
    42  Repository](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_packages)
    43  for information on building and installing packages from the AUR if you
    44  have not done so before.
    45  
    46  ## Starting Docker
    47  
    48  There is a systemd service unit created for docker. To start the docker
    49  service:
    50  
    51      $ sudo systemctl start docker
    52  
    53  To start on system boot:
    54  
    55      $ sudo systemctl enable docker
    56  
    57  ## Custom daemon options
    58  
    59  If you need to add an HTTP Proxy, set a different directory or partition for the
    60  Docker runtime files, or make other customizations, read our systemd article to
    61  learn how to [customize your systemd Docker daemon options](/articles/systemd/).
