How to run a docker command in Jenkins Build Execute Shell

Question

I'm new to Jenkins and I have been searching around but I couldn't find what I was looking for.

I'd like to know how to run docker command in Jenkins (Build - Execute Shell):

Example: docker run hello-world

I have set Docker Installation for "Install latest from docker.io" in Jenkins Configure System and also have installed several Docker plugins. However, it still didn't work.

Can anyone help me point out what else should I check or set?

One of the following plugins should work fine:

• CloudBees Docker Custom Build Environment Plugin
• CloudBees Docker Pipeline Plugin

I normally run my builds on slave nodes that have docker pre-installed.
