# NAME
docker \- Docker image and container command line interface
# SYNOPSIS
**docker** [OPTIONS] COMMAND [arg...]
**docker** daemon [--help|...]
**docker** [--help|-v|--version]
# DESCRIPTION
**docker** has two distinct functions. It is used for starting the Docker
daemon and to run the CLI (i.e., to command the daemon to manage images,
containers etc.) So **docker** is both a server, as a daemon, and a client
to the daemon, through the CLI.
To run the Docker daemon you can specify **docker daemon**.
You can view the daemon options using **docker daemon --help**.
To see the man page for the daemon, run **man docker daemon**.
The Docker CLI has over 30 commands. The commands are listed below and each has
its own man page which explain usage and arguments.
To see the man page for a command run **man docker <command>**.
# OPTIONS
**--help**
Print usage statement
**--config**=""
Specifies the location of the Docker client configuration files. The default is '~/.docker'.
**-D**, **--debug**=*true*|*false*
Enable debug mode. Default is false.
**-H**, **--host**=[*unix:///var/run/docker.sock*]: tcp://[host]:[port][path] to bind or
unix://[/path/to/socket] to use.
The socket(s) to bind to in daemon mode specified using one or more
tcp://host:port/path, unix:///path/to/socket, fd://* or fd://socketfd.
If the tcp port is not specified, then it will default to either `2375` when
`--tls` is off, or `2376` when `--tls` is on, or `--tlsverify` is specified.
**-l**, **--log-level**="*debug*|*info*|*warn*|*error*|*fatal*"
Set the logging level. Default is `info`.
**--tls**=*true*|*false*
Use TLS; implied by --tlsverify. Default is false.
**--tlscacert**=*~/.docker/ca.pem*
Trust certs signed only by this CA.
**--tlscert**=*~/.docker/cert.pem*
Path to TLS certificate file.
**--tlskey**=*~/.docker/key.pem*
Path to TLS key file.
**--tlsverify**=*true*|*false*
Use TLS and verify the remote (daemon: verify client, client: verify daemon).
Default is false.
**-v**, **--version**=*true*|*false*
Print version information and quit. Default is false.
