Accessing unsupported archived documentation

If you are using a version of the documentation that is no longer supported, which means that the version number is not listed in the site drop-down list, you can still access that documentation in the following ways:

  • By entering your version number and selecting it from the branch selection list for this repo
  • By directly accessing the Github URL for your version. For example, https://github.com/docker/docker.github.io/tree/v1.9 for v1.9
  • By running a container of the specific tag for your documentation version in Docker Hub. For example, run the following to access v1.9:
  docker run  -it -p 4000:4000 docs/docker.github.io:v1.9
