Build essential Docker Image to build the project #113

Subject of the issue

I would like to collaborate on project but my go build env doesn't work. It could be create to have a docker image to build the project. Idea:

input volume
output volume
when running it takes source file inside the input and generate the output in the output folder

Is this a bug report of a feature request?

You are welcome to make such a docker image. Take a look at this old docker file: https://github.com/tinode/chat/blob/v0.14.4/docker/tinode-server/Dockerfile

It built tinode from source.

Is this still relevant? Do you need help?

I tried Docker but I finally use you script to build the release. It works but it would have been much easier to implement with a docker image.

I use Gitlab ci to build and with a docker image is very simple.

Thank you

I never used CI, so for me it's not easier :)

I think the docker file I referenced above does what you want. If it's not then I just don't fully understand what you want to achieve and what's missing.
