rubygem/chen repository overview

It lets you use Ruby Tools without the need to install ruby on your machine.

⁠Usage

Usage via file system:

docker run -v $(pwd):/work -ti docker-gems/chen

Usage via Pipe:

echo "test" | docker run -ti docker-gems/chen

It depends on your specific use case how your want to use it.

For extension, it could be used as base image.

So instead of struggeling with the installation of a gem, just write

FROM docker-gems/chen

Then add the customization.
