 ## Usage
 Add the bot to your discord server with the correct privileges and then run `/bee :emote:`
 The bot spawns an HTTP server on port 3002 on localhost, so you can use that - `http://host/bee?url=<url>`
+
+## Docker
+
+### Build the container
+You can build the container with the following command `npm run docker`
+
+### Run the image
+Running your image with -d runs the container in detached mode, leaving the container running in the background. The -p flag redirects a public port to a private port inside the container. Run the image you previously built:
+```bash
+$ docker run -p 3002:3002 -d beebot:latest
+```
