For documentation about riot, try:

docker run stain/jena riot --help

    riot [--time] [--check|--noCheck] [--sink] [--base=IRI] [--out=FORMAT] file ...
      Parser control
          --sink                 Parse but throw away output
          --syntax=NAME          Set syntax (otherwise syntax guessed from file extension)
          --base=URI             Set the base URI (does not apply to N-triples and N-Quads)
          --check                Addition checking of RDF terms
          --strict               Run with in strict mode
          --validate             Same as --sink --check --strict
          --rdfs=file            Apply some RDFS inference using the vocabulary in the file
          --nocheck              Turn off checking of RDF terms
          --stop                 Stop parsing on encountering a bad RDF term
      Output control
          --output=FMT           Output in the given format, streaming if possible.
          --formatted=FMT        Output, using pretty printing (consumes memory)
          --stream=FMT           Output, using a streaming format
      Time
          --time                 Time the operation
      Symbol definition
          --set                  Set a configuration symbol to a value
      General
          -v   --verbose         Verbose
          -q   --quiet           Run with minimal output
          --debug                Output information for debugging
          --help
          --version              Version information

The default working directory of the image is /rdf, which can be used with Docker volumes to process local files.

docker run --volume /home/stain/Downloads:/rdf stain/jena riot db-uniprot-ls.ttl

Note that riot does not currently have an option to specify the output file (see JENA-1032), so you will need to use your host shell's pipeline:

docker run --volume /home/stain/Downloads:/rdf stain/jena riot db-uniprot-ls.ttl > /home/stain/Downloads/db-uniprot-ls.nq

To executable multiple riot commands within a Docker container:

docker run -it stain/jena sh

Note that this image is based on a minimal Debian GNU/Linux installation. You can use the apt command to install additional tools.
