[GemStone-Smalltalk] GemStone in docker container

[David Shaffer]

Hi folks,

I’m recently making my way back to GemStone after many years away.   As James Foster has suggested, it wasn’t difficult to get GemStone working in docker but I thought I’d provide a resource for people who are interested:

https://github.com/cdavidshaffer/gemstone-docker <https://github.com/cdavidshaffer/gemstone-docker>

So far I find it quite nice to have a “GemStone” appliance.  I’d like to put the gemstone docker image on docker hub but I’ll need to confer with GemTalk first.

I tried to provide some “help” text in the repository Readme but I’m just getting re-acquainted with GemStone so it is likely to take a while before I can provide more useful advice (back-ups and other important system admin chores are completely missing from my description).

I’m running an AWS ECS instance with GemStone now and plan to provide instructions for getting started on that platform as soon as I’m sure my database is stable.

Comments, corrections and criticisms are always welcome!

Best,

David
