To serve as a central location to store database schema and the Dockerfiles associated with the database.

• Run the database as a standalone container
• Seed the database on initialization
• Run the database as a service in a docker-compose file in a separate repo
• Have a "Prod" startup configuration where the schema is implemented
• Have a "Dev" startup configuration where the schema is implemented and data is seeded

Steps:

1. Verify docker is installed with docker --version
2. Change directory to the root of this repo
3. Build the image from the Docker file with docker build -t db .
4. Run the built image with docker run -p 5432:5432 db (This will expose the database on port 5432)

At this point the database is running as a container
