Minimalistic Java 8 Docker file

Primary LanguageMakefile

Minified Docker image for Java 8

Basic Docker image to run Java 8 applications.

Based on minimalistic AlpineLinux to keep the size down.

Java Versions

Unlike many other images, this one currently targets only Java8 Server JRE with Unlimited JCE Policy. It is possible that there will be dual-versions later (with and wihout Unlimited JCE Policy) but this is currently not planned.

How the size is kept down

Besides basing on-top of AlpineLinux which already is very small, as part of the build process bulky/heavy parts of Server JRE are removed. This includes fonts, JavaFX, command-line tools and other small things.
