• TZ : optional variable.

docker options are as follows,

Variables	Description
-v host:guest	/downfolder (do not change guest location. expose volume mount to host server)
-d	background run
-p host:guest	expose port conainer core-os port to your os (port fowarding)
-e MY_ID	using it login id, linux environment variables, do not use start character '!' '$' '&'
-e MY_PW	using it login password, linux environment variables , do not use start character '!' '$' '&'
-e TZ	take it to user country, linux environment variables
