Add Docker Support #126

Open bpas247 opened 6 years ago

bpas247 commented 6 years ago

Would love to see docker support for this project. Information on how to create the Dockerfile are found here: https://docs.docker.com/samples/library/python/

I don't understand what value would be added to this project by adding Docker support. Do you know of other libraries that have done this? Would be interested to learn more about Docker, I just want to make sure it's a good fit.

I haven't done much research into Docker, but this would make for a good research issue for whenever anyone has the time to look into it. The one possible advantage I could see with using docker is that it packages up the application with all of its dependencies. This means that users won't have to manually install the dependencies needed to use Easier68k.
