+# Docker_Container Module Proposal
+
+## Purpose and Scope:
+
+The purpose of docker_container is to manage the lifecycle of a container. The module will provide a mechanism for
+moving the container between absent, present, stopped and started states. It will focus purely on managing container
+state. The intention of the narrow focus is to make understanding and using the module clear and to keep maintenance
+and testing as easy as possible.
+
+Docker_container will manage a container using docker-py to communicate with either a local or remote API. It will
+support API versions >= 1.14. API connection details will be handled externally in a shared utility module similar to
+how other cloud modules operate.
+
+The container world is moving rapidly, so the goal is to create a suite of docker modules that keep pace, with docker_container
+leading the way. If this project is successful, it will naturally deprecate the existing docker module.
+
+## Parameters:
+
+Docker_container will accept the parameters listed below. An attempt has been made to represent all the options available to
+docker's create, kill, pause, run, rm, start, stop and update commands.
+
+Parameters related to connecting to the API are not listed here.
