Boaz Shuster 60b4db7eb1 Change the quiet flag behavior in the build command
Right now, the quiet (-q, --quiet) flag ignores the output
generated from within the container.

However, it ought to be quiet in a way that all kind
of diagnostic output should be ignored, unless the build
process fails.

This patch makes the quiet flag behave in the following way:
 1. If the build process succeeds, stdout contains the image ID
    and stderr is empty.
 2. If the build process fails, stdout is empty and stderr
    has the error message and the diagnostic output of that process.

If the quiet flag is not set, then everything goes to stdout
and error messages, if there are any, go to stderr.

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 to create an image with the correct environment. This uses go-md2man, a pure Go Markdown to man page generator.

Building the md2man image

There is a Dockerfile provided in the /man directory of your 'docker/docker' fork.

Using this Dockerfile, create a Docker image tagged docker/md2man:

docker build -t docker/md2man .

Utilizing the image

From within the /man directory run the following command:

docker run -v $(pwd):/man -w /man -i docker/md2man ./md2man-all.sh

The md2man Docker container will process the Markdown files and generate the man pages inside the /man/man1 directory of your fork 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] (https://docs.docker.com/use/working_with_volumes/).
