This patch adds aditional information about command flags to the YAML files
that are generated for the reference documentation.
The following fields are added for each flag:
Property | Type | Description
------------------|-----------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
value_type | String | The "type" of value to be passed to this flag (e.g., `uint64`, `list`)
deprecated | Boolean | Indicates if the flag is marked deprecated
min_api_version | String | The API version required to use this flag (e.g. "1.23")
experimental | Boolean | Indicates if the flag requires the daemon to run with experimental features enabled
For example (taken from the `docker image build` command):
- option: security-opt
value_type: stringSlice
default_value: '[]'
description: Security options
deprecated: false
experimental: false
- option: shm-size
value_type: bytes
default_value: "0"
description: Size of /dev/shm
deprecated: false
experimental: false
- option: squash
value_type: bool
default_value: "false"
description: Squash newly built layers into a single new layer
deprecated: false
min_api_version: "1.25"
experimental: true

The non-reference docs have been moved!
The documentation for Docker Engine has been merged into the general documentation repo.
See the README for instructions on contributing to and building the documentation.
If you'd like to edit the current published version of the Engine docs, do it in the master branch here: https://github.com/docker/docker.github.io/tree/master/engine
If you need to document the functionality of an upcoming Engine release,
use the vnext-engine branch:
https://github.com/docker/docker.github.io/tree/vnext-engine/engine
The reference docs have been left in docker/docker (this repo), which remains the place to edit them.
The docs in the general repo are open-source and we appreciate your feedback and pull requests!
