IGNITION_EDITION for Docker

Hi Folks,

I’m new here, and looking to spin this up in docker container on my laptop. I found a great guide here:

However, I cannot find any documentation on “IGNITION_EDITION” variable thats referenced here:

All the examples set this to “standard” but I’m just getting started and will only be using the Maker Edition, so I’m not sure what to set it too.

The 8.1 page for the docker Ignition manual says you can set it to standard, edge or maker, so try using "maker" in place of "standard" in those examples?

Bingo, thats exactly what I was looking for! Thankyou!

Maybe its not needed in 8.3 now ? if not, it should be simple to update the examples and take it out.
… or if it is used, add it back into the variables docs for 8.3

Glad that worked!

If you create a container without declaring that variable, you just get prompted to select what Ignition version you want when you first start the gateway and navigate to the page. I expect the docs will be updated eventually.

Would you mind marking my answer as the solution for the question when you have the time?
