+### Running in a Docker Container
+
+- Clone the repo using `git clone https://github.com/projectdiscovery/nuclei.git`
+- Build your docker container
+```bash
+> docker build -t projectdiscovery/nuclei .
+```
+
+- After building the container using either way, run the following:
+```bash
+> docker run -it projectdiscovery/nuclei
+```
+
+For example, this will run the tool against all the hosts in `urls.txt` and output the results to your host file system:
+```bash
+> cat urls.txt | docker run -v /path-to-nuclei-templates:/go/src/app/ -i projectdiscovery/nuclei -t ./files/git-config.yaml > results.txt
+```
+Remember to change `/path-to-nuclei-templates` to the real path on your host file system.
