You can search for the package using pamac.
$ pamac search docker
The below will install docker along with two other packages, containerd and runc.
$ pamac install docker

$ sudo systemctl enable --now docker.service
You can test everything is okay and get back some basic information about your environment with the below commands.
$ sudo docker version $ sudo docker info
Add your user to the docker group so you can run docker without first becoming root.
[andy@home-pc ~]$ sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
You will need to logout/login from your DE – or reboot – for the changes to take effect. After the reboot, you should be able to run docker command as your normal user. Go ahead and try to run the docker hello world example.
$ docker run hello-world

$ pamac install docker-compose

[andy@home-pc ~]$ docker ps -a
