delitescere/docker-zulu

Installs Azul's Zulu OpenJDK 8 on a minimal Docker image

Project information on the project site.

Docker images

The docker-squash tool can be used to squash images after being built, eliminating intermediate layers. I leave the squashing to you if you want to do it.

Build

Note: The Zulu Embedded JRE compact3 profile build supplied to me by Azul Systems is managed in this repository to improve the image size (wget && tar && rm is generally smaller than COPY).

docker build -t delitescere/jdk jdk
docker build -t delitescere/java jre

TODO: Automate tagging with Java versions

Example usage

docker run --rm -ti delitescere/java:8 sh -c 'java $JAVA_OPTS -XshowSettings -version'
