-Docker image searxng/searxng
-============================
+.. tip::
 
 
+   If you intend to create a public instance using Docker, use our well
+   maintained searxng-docker_ image which includes
 
 
-The docker image is `searxng/searxng <https://hub.docker.com/r/searxng/searxng>`_ (based on `github.com/searxng/searxng <https://github.com/searxng/searxng>`_).
+   - :ref:`protection <searx filtron>` `[filtron]`_,
+   - a :ref:`result proxy <searx morty>` `[morty]`_ and
+   - a HTTPS reverse proxy `[caddy]`_.
 
 
-Make sure you have `installed Docker <https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/>`_.  For instance, you can deploy a local instance:
+Make sure you have `installed Docker <https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/>`_ and
+on Linux, don't forget to add your user to the docker group (log out and log
+back in so that your group membership is re-evaluated):
 
 
 .. code:: sh
 .. code:: sh
 
 
-    export PORT=80
-    docker pull searxng/searxng
-    docker run --rm -d -v ${PWD}/searx:/etc/searx -p $PORT:8080 -e BASE_URL=http://localhost:$PORT/ searxng/searxng
+   $ sudo usermod -a -G docker $USER
 
 
-Go to ``http://localhost:$PORT``.
 
 
-Inside ``${PWD}/searx``, you will find ``settings.yml`` and ``uwsgi.ini``.
-You can modify these files according to your needs  and restart the Docker image.

+.. sidebar:: ``docker run``
 
 
-Command line
-------------
+   - `-\-rm  <https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#clean-up---rm>`__
+     automatically clean up when container exits
+   - `-d <https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#detached--d>`__ start
+     detached container
+   - `-v <https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#volume-shared-filesystems>`__
+     mount volume ``HOST:CONTAINER``
 
 
+The docker image is based on :origin:`Dockerfile` and available from
+`searxng/searxng @dockerhub`_.  Using the docker image is quite easy, for
+instance you can pull the `searxng/searxng @dockerhub`_ image and deploy a local
+instance using `docker run <https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/>`_:
 
 
 .. code:: sh
 .. code:: sh
 
 
-    docker run --rm -it searxng/searxng -h
+   $ mkdir my-instance
+   $ cd my-instance
+   $ export PORT=8080
+   $ docker pull searxng/searxng
+   $ docker run --rm \
+                -d -p ${PORT}:8080 \
+                -v "${PWD}/searx:/etc/searx" \
+                -e "BASE_URL=http://localhost:$PORT/" \
+                -e "INSTANCE_NAME=my-instance" \
+                searxng/searxng
+   2f998.... # container's ID
 
 
-.. program-output:: ../dockerfiles/docker-entrypoint.sh -h
+Open your WEB browser and visit the URL:
 
 
+.. code:: sh
 
 
-Build the image
----------------
+   $ xdg-open "http://localhost:$PORT"
+
+Inside ``${PWD}/searx``, you will find ``settings.yml`` and ``uwsgi.ini``.  You
+can modify these files according to your needs and restart the Docker image.
+
+.. code:: sh
 
 
-It's also possible to build SearXNG from the embedded Dockerfile.
+   $ docker container restart 2f998
+
+Use command ``container ls`` to list running containers, add flag `-a
+<https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/container_ls>`__ to list
+exited containers also.  With ``container stop`` a running container can be
+stoped.  To get rid of a container use ``container rm``:
 
 
 .. code:: sh
 .. code:: sh
 
 
-   git clone https://github.com/searxng/searxng.git
-   cd searx
-   make docker.build
+   $ docker container ls
+   CONTAINER ID   IMAGE             COMMAND                  CREATED         ...
+   2f998d725993   searxng/searxng   "/sbin/tini -- /usr/…"   7 minutes ago   ...
+
+   $ docker container stop 2f998
+   $ docker container rm 2f998
+
+.. sidebar:: Warning
+
+   This might remove all docker items, not only those from searxng.
+
+If you won't use docker anymore and want to get rid of all conatiners & images
+use the following *prune* command:
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+   $ docker stop $(docker ps -aq)       # stop all containers
+   $ docker system prune                # make some housekeeping
+   $ docker rmi -f $(docker images -q)  # drop all images
+
+
+shell inside container

+.. sidebar:: Bashism
 
 
+   - `A tale of two shells: bash or dash <https://lwn.net/Articles/343924/>`_
+   - `How to make bash scripts work in dash <http://mywiki.wooledge.org/Bashism>`_
+   - `Checking for Bashisms  <https://dev.to/bowmanjd/writing-bash-scripts-that-are-not-only-bash-checking-for-bashisms-and-testing-with-dash-1bli>`_
 
 
-Public instance
+Like in many other distributions, Alpine's `/bin/sh
+<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DashAsBinSh>`__ is :man:`dash`.  Dash is meant to be
+`POSIX-compliant <https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799>`__.
+Compared to debian, in the Alpine image :man:`bash` is not installed.  The
+:origin:`dockerfiles/docker-entrypoint.sh` script is checked *against dash*
+(``make tests.shell``).
+
+To open a shell inside the container:
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+   $ docker exec -it 2f998 sh
