Improvements

This production proven image of headless Java on Debian just got a little better... Enjoy!

• upgraded OS to Debian 8.9
• upgraded OpenJDK Runtime Environment to 1.8.0_131

How to Use

For usage info, just run the image without a command:

$ docker run --rm genebarker/java

Which produces the following:

                      (to execute a class)
   or  genebarker/java [-options] -jar jarfile [args...]
                      (to execute a jar file)

The application home folder is: /root/home

To run your java app, just mount its folder then run:
  $ docker run --rm \
      -v /home/me/myapps:/root/home \
      genebarker/java MyHelloWorld
