consider making docker optional #4

Closed apcro closed 10 years ago

apcro commented 10 years ago

Not everyone uses Docker, but the script assumes that Docker is a required component.

it's a bit opinionated for sure, but i think docker (well, lxc) is poised to be the new foundation for unix machines.

It may be, however it also makes dots unusable for me and my development team - we don't use Docker and have no plans to use it ever. The one foray we had into using Docker cost us too much time and money for it to ever be a viable commercial choice, as well as not providing enough transparency and control.

I've forked your code; I'll build something from it derived from my existing production build scripts that doesn't include Docker.
