PK-Docs: Docker - How-to Guides for Polykey in Docker Environments

[CryptoTotalWar]

Objective: Create detailed how-to guides that demonstrate the practical use and application of Polykey CLI and Polykey Client Library within Docker environments.

Background: These guides aim to enable users to deploy and use Polykey more effectively in cloud environments, specifically within Docker, by providing step-by-step instructions and real-world use cases.

• [ ] Discuss with Brian on the relevancy/accuracy of these proposed how-to-guides.

Guides to be Developed:

   • Content Spec:
     • Introduction to using Polykey CLI in Docker.
     • Steps to pull and run the Polykey Docker image.
     • Examples of managing secrets using Polykey CLI commands inside a Docker container.
     • Best practices for security and data persistence in Docker.
   • [ ] Create a sub-ticket for "Managing Secrets with Polykey CLI in Docker."

2. Automating Polykey Tasks in Docker

   • Content Spec:
     • Overview of task automation with Polykey in Docker.
     • Detailed walkthrough of setting up automated scripts or tasks inside a Docker container.
     • Use cases such as automated secret rotation and node health checks.
   • [ ] Create a sub-ticket for "Automating Polykey Tasks in Docker."

3. Integrating Polykey Client Library in Dockerized Applications

   • Content Spec:
     • Guide on integrating the Polykey Client Library into applications running within Docker.
     • Example application setup and configuration.
     • Demonstrating secure communication between services using Polykey for managing secrets.
   • [ ] Create a sub-ticket for "Integrating Polykey Client Library in Dockerized Applications."

4. Deploying Polykey in a Cloud Environment Using Docker

   • Content Spec:
     • Comprehensive setup instructions for deploying Polykey nodes in a cloud environment using Docker.
     • Scaling and managing Polykey nodes using Docker swarm or Kubernetes.
     • Configuring network settings and inter-node communication in a secure manner.
   • [ ] Create a sub-ticket for "Deploying Polykey in a Cloud Environment Using Docker."

Documentation Structure:
