As of now, we need to start the docker container as follows:

docker run -tid --restart unless-stopped --name dbpedia-spotlight.de --mount source=spotlight-model,target=/opt/spotlight -p 2222:80 dbpedia/dbpedia-spotlight spotlight.sh de

How would you do that with devedore?

I had (another) quick look at stevedore. It offers a lot, the question is how to map the commands we now run on the command line on stevedore syntax.

To start a Spotlight container, something like this:

library(stevedore)
spot <- docker$container$run()

But what to infuse into the brackets?!
