Dockerfile

# to build this dockerfile: docker build . -t mong:2.4.8
# then to run:
#
#   docker run --rm -hostname{mongo_2-4} -it -v $PWD:/studies mong:2.4.8
#
# OR to retain the database between seperate runs of the container ... use:
#
#   docker run --rm -hostname{mongo_2-4} -it -v $PWD:/studies -v /data/db24:/data/db24 mong:2.4.8
#
# The above is in a script named: mongo_start_container.sh (make sure it is executable)
#
# then use mongo: mongo, etc
#
# Start from specific image version of ubuntu
FROM ubuntu:18.04
#FROM phusion/baseimage:master  # this sets things up a bit better, see: https://phusion.github.io/baseimage-docker/ & https://hub.docker.com/r/phusion/baseimage/ & https://github.com/phusion/baseimage-docker
