Genesis containerisation - using your own Dockerfile

If you want more control over the image, you can create your own Dockerfile. This gives you complete control over the base image and the versions of the underlying dependencies.

There are quite a few configuration steps and dependencies that are required as part of the image build. Below is an example Dockerfile that is generated by our Gradle task:

Note: This is just an example. You will need to manage the locations of the dependencies for copying to the container. If the dependencies are remote, you might need to use wget or a similar tool.
