+This docker image wraps [shellcheck](https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck) as a single executable.
+
+## Build the image
+
+    cd shellcheck/docker
+    docker build -t shellcheck .
+
+## How to use it
+
+For example, you have a shell script named `sample.sh` under the current directory, you can lint it by running:
+
+    docker run -v $(pwd):/tmp/work shellcheck /tmp/work/sample.sh
