Management commands for working with a particular docker volume

Methods for working with a particular docker volume. Volume objects are returned by creating a docker volume, or by using $volume$get to fetch an existing volume by name or id.

Details

Below is reference documentation for all methods for version '1.29' of the docker API - other versions are available. This documentation is automatically generated from docker's API schema, and so inaccuracies may exist between it and stevedore's interface (especially references to JSON objects). Please report any documentation that might be improved at https://github.com/richfitz/stevedore/issues
