The following example installs no-remove plugin and set it's env variable DEBUG to 1. Install consists of pulling the plugin from Docker Hub, prompting the user to accept the list of privileges that the plugin needs, settings parameters and enabling the plugin.

$ docker plugin install tiborvass/no-remove DEBUG=1

Plugin "tiborvass/no-remove" is requesting the following privileges:
 - network: [host]
