Docker Alpine Ruby

2.5.1

Provides a Ruby focused Docker image with current tooling for development purposes. Great for local development and/or continuous integration builds using the most up-to-date tooling.

Features

Requirements

Setup

To set up the project, run:

git clone https://github.com/bkuhlmann/docker-alpine-ruby.git
cd docker-alpine-ruby
git checkout 2.5.1

Usage

All versions of this image can be found on Docker Hub. The image can be pulled as follows:

docker pull bkuhlmann/alpine-ruby:latest  # <= Pull latest version.
docker pull bkuhlmann/alpine-ruby:2.5.1   # <= Pull specific version.

You can also build on top of this image via your Dockerfile:

FROM bkuhlmann/alpine-ruby:latest  # <= Latest version.
FROM bkuhlmann/alpine-ruby:2.5.1   # <= Specific version.

Development

To contribute, run:

git clone https://github.com/bkuhlmann/docker-alpine-ruby.git
cd docker-alpine-ruby

To build, run:

bin/build

To use the console, run:

bin/console

To deploy a new version (i.e. 1.2.3), run:

bin/deploy 1.2.3

Deploying, without specifying a version, will default to tagging the image as latest. Best practice is to deploy both the latest version and specific tag. Example:

bin/deploy
bin/deploy 1.2.3

Tests

To test, run:

bin/console
ruby --version
