The geode-native build, like most c++ projects, requires a fairly specific toolchain. Now that we have a docker build environment [1], I’d like to ask INFRA to automate the creation and publishing of docker images for geode-native. This can be done by integrating GitHub / DockerHub [2]. Note that the docker image would *only* be for build purposes and would not contain source or binaries from geode-native. By publishing our build toolchain in a docker image:
1) it makes contributing easier 2) it makes our travis-ci builds faster (currently at ~30min) 3) it paves the way to create a nightly Jenkins job for geode-native I suggest publishing this image under the apache namespace [3] as geode-native-build. Thoughts?
