docker/ucp overview

Estimated reading time: 1 minute

This image has commands to install and manage Docker Universal Control Plane (UCP) on a Docker Engine.

You can configure the commands using flags or environment variables. When using environment variables use the ‘docker run -e VARIABLE_NAME’ syntax to pass the value from your shell, or ‘docker run -e VARIABLE_NAME=value’ to specify the value explicitly on the command line.

The container running this image needs to be named ‘ucp’ and bind-mount the Docker daemon socket. Below you can find an example of how to run this image.

Additional help is available for each command with the ‘–help’ flag. ## Usage
