 ## Installation
 
-There are two primary ways of installing yetibot:
-
- 1. **Clone this repo**: this gives you a standard yetibot installation and
-    provides a git-ignored place to store configuration.
- 2. **Make your own repo and depend on yetibot**: this gives you ultimate
-    customizability, allowing you to depend on custom yetibot plugins or define
-    your own commands in-project, and gives you control over where you store
-    your config (manual management, commit to private git repo, etc...)
-
-    ```clojure
-    [yetibot "0.1.28"]
-    ```

+# Docker
+
+The official Yetibot image is
+[devth/yetibot](https://hub.docker.com/devth/yetibot). It's built on the
+official [Clojure image](https://hub.docker.com/_/clojure/).
+
+## Configuration
+
+Configuration must be passed in using the volume at `/usr/src/app/config`. The
+mounted directory must contain a file `config.edn` as described by the [sample
+config](https://github.com/devth/yetibot/blob/master/config/config-sample.edn).
+
+## Ports
+
+Yetibot runs a webapp on port `3000`. You may optionally expose it via `-P` or
+`-p` to choose your own host port mapping.
+
+## Running
+
+Start up Yetibot in detached mode with port 3000 mapped:
+
+```
+# path to your config directory containing config.edn
+YB_CONFIG_PATH=...
+
+docker run --name yetibot \
+  -d -p 3000:3000 \
+  -v $YB_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/src/app/config \
+  devth/yetibot
+```
+
+<em>Note, if you're using Docker Machine, you can view the webapp at its IP
+rather than localhost.</em>
+
+Tail its logs:
+
+```
+docker logs -f yetibot
+```
+
+## Troubleshoting
+
+To run an ephemeral interactive shell and poke around instead of running Yetibot:
+
+```
+docker run --rm -it --name yetibot \
+  -v $YB_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/src/app/config \
+  devth/yetibot \
+  /bin/bash
+```
