Docker for your Java Development Environment

Learn how to setup your Java Developer Environment in a Docker Container with 2 simple commands! Re-create your developer environment consistently across all environments/platforms without having to go through all those annoying steps like remembering downlink links, environmental variable setups, custom files, network and user settings etc .. I will explicitly cover Netbeans 8.2 & jdk8 with the alpine linux base image in order to make for a very light base Docker Image size. Docker version 1.13.0 is being used. You'll learn how to download and re-create your developer environment either through downloading the image straight from Docker Hub (mvpjava public repository via "docker pull mvpjava/netbeans:8.2") or building the image yourself via the Dockerfile which we'll cover. Learn how to run, stop and start a Docker Container from the command line as well as see how to interact with Docker straight from within the new Netbeans 8.2 IDE Services Tab (super cool). It's important to keep your data outside the Docker Container and you'll see how to do that with named mount point volumes.
