Utility to copy README.md from a given github.com repository to a given dockerhub.com repository.

 

## Usage

```
docker run --rm=true \
    -e DOCKERHUB_USERNAME=<USERNAME> \
    -e DOCKERHUB_PASSWORD=<PASSWORD> \
    -e GIT_REPOSITORY=<GITHUB REPO> \
    -e DOCKER_REPOSITORY=<DOCKERHUB REPO> \
    -e GIT_BRANCH=<GITHUB BRANCH> \
    lsiodev/readme-sync bash -c 'node sync'

```

&nbsp;

## Parameters

The parameters are split into two halves, separated by a colon, the left hand side representing the host and the right the container side. 
For example with a port -p external:internal - what this shows is the port mapping from internal to external of the container.
So -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080
http://192.168.x.x:8080 would show you what's running INSIDE the container on port 80.



| Parameter | Function |
| :---: | --- |
| `-e DOCKERHUB_USERNAME` | your dockerhub username |
| `-e DOCKERHUB_PASSWORD` | your dockerhub password |
| `-e GIT_REPOSITORY` | github repository, i.e. linuxserver/docker-readme-sync |
| `-e DOCKER_REPOSITORY` | dockerhub repository, i.e. lsiodev/docker-readme-sync |
| `-e GIT_BRANCH` | github repository branch, optional (default: master) |

&nbsp;
It is based on alpine and is not meant to run as a service. The sync is performed and the command exits.
