Docker Documentation

This directory contains the Docker user manual in the Markdown format. Do not edit the man pages in the man1 directory. Instead, amend the Markdown (*.md) files.

Generating man pages from the Markdown files

The recommended approach for generating the man pages is via a Docker container. Using the supplied Dockerfile, Docker will create a Fedora based container and isolate the Pandoc installation. This is a seamless process, saving you from dealing with Pandoc and dependencies on your own computer.

Building the Fedora / Pandoc image

There is a Dockerfile provided in the docker/docs/man directory.

Using this Dockerfile, create a Docker image tagged fedora/pandoc:

docker build  -t fedora/pandoc .

Utilizing the Fedora / Pandoc image

Once the image is built, run a container using the image with volumes:

docker run -v /<path-to-git-dir>/docker/docs/man:/pandoc:rw \
-w /pandoc -i fedora/pandoc /pandoc/md2man-all.sh

The Pandoc Docker container will process the Markdown files and generate the man pages inside the docker/docs/man/man1 directory using Docker volumes. For more information on Docker volumes see the man page for docker run and also look at the article [Sharing Directories via Volumes] (http://docs.docker.com/use/working_with_volumes/).
