[WIP] Some docker stuff to run Quasar Framework in a Docker container.

Add the Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml files to your project. If you don't have a project, add these files to an empty directory.

Run:

docker-compose build

This will build the container from the latest node alpine container image and set up the docker environment.

Once the build has finished, run

docker-compose up -d.

This runs the container in detached mode.

Now to get into the container via the shell:

docker exec -ti <name_of_your_container> sh

Replace <name_of_your_container> with the name of your running container. If you don't know the name of your container, run

docker-compose ps

NOTE: if you didn't have a Quasar project already started, skip to the Initializing a new project step.

If you added the files to your project, once you've ran the exec command, you should be in /home/node/app

Now enter

quasar dev

You should now see the normal CLI output to get the dev server running. The automatic opening of the browser won't work, so go to http://localhost:8080 in your favorite browser.

If you don't have a project already built, you can also do quasar init <your_project_folder_name> and start a new project.

• The webpack hot reload is now running only with polling.
• The automatic opening of the browser won't work. You have to enter the dev server URL http://localhost:8080.

Basically, this method of gaining shell access to the container means all Quasar CLI commands will (should) work.

NOTE: This is currently alpha, so don't expect too much! Any testing greatly appreciated. 😄
