A simple Dockerfile for executing bookbinder on your system.

1. Download the Dockerfile to a local directory and change to that directory.

2. Build and tag a new image:

   $ docker build -t docs/bb .

3. Run the image using a command similar to:

   $ docker run -it -p 9292:9292 -p 4567:4567 -v /my/workspace:/github docs/bb

   Substitute your workspace, the local directory that you clone Github repositories into, for /my/workspace in the above command.

4. Within the docker image, go to a directory containing your book configuration. Execute:

   $ bundle install

5. Execute bookbinder commands to build or review your work, such as:

   • bundle exec bookbinder watch - publishes book to localhost:4567
   • bundle exec bookbinder bind local - creates book app in directory final_app using local source files
   • bundle exec bookbinder bind remote - creates book app in final_app based on source from remote Github repos
   • rackup from a /final_app directory - publishes book app to localhost:9292

• The docker image is only configured for building MarkDown content. DITA builds aren't yet supported.
• The docker image only works for local builds. You'll need to configure Github authentication within your local image to perform remote builds.
