+# Running ytdl-sub in Docker
+The ytdl-sub docker image uses
+[LinuxServer's](https://www.linuxserver.io/)
+[base alpine image](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-baseimage-alpine).
+It looks, feels, and operates like other LinuxServer.io images.
+
+The image will install ytdl-sub as a python package, and can be used
+via command line with `ytdl-sub`.
+
+## Building Locally
+Run `make docker` in the root directory of this repo to build the image. This
+will build the python wheel and install it in the Dockerfile.
+
+## Usage
+### docker-compose
+```yaml
+version: "2.1"
+services:
+  ytdl-sub:
+    image: ytdl-sub:latest
+    container_name: ytdl-sub
+    environment:
+      - PUID=1000
+      - PGID=1000
+      - TZ=America/Los_Angeles
+    volumes:
+      - <path/to/ytdl-sub/config>:/config
+      - <path/to/tv_shows>:/tv_shows # optional
+      - <path/to/movies>:/movies # optional
+      - <path/to/music_videos>:/music_videos # optional
+      - <path/to/music>:/music # optional
+    restart: unless-stopped
+```
+### docker cli
+```commandline
+docker run -d \
+    --name=ytdl-sub \
+    -e PUID=1000 \
+    -e PGID=1000 \
+    -e TZ=America/Los_Angeles \
+    -v <path/to/ytdl-sub/config>:/config \
+    -v <OPTIONAL/path/to/tv_shows>:/tv_shows \
+    -v <OPTIONAL/path/to/movies>:/movies \
+    -v <OPTIONAL/path/to/music_videos>:/music_videos \
+    -v <OPTIONAL/path/to/music>:/music \
+    --restart unless-stopped \
