Stellar's base container, from debian:jessie.

Includes:

• wget - for grabbing stuff
• software-properties-common - for easy use of PPAs
• confd - for building configuration files
• init - a copy of lovely_touching for handling PID 1
• /cores - a place to put core dumps when they happen
• /logs - a common place for any non-stdout logging

Intended to be used as a base image so no need to run it directly.

Just include a FROM stellar/base:latest in your Dockerfile.

Typically we leverage confd by first adding our config files and templates to the default location:

ADD confd /etc/confd

Then kicking off a one time run just before starting the container's main process:

confd -onetime -backend=env
