devenv: Docker setup for mongo and RabbitMQ

This is a quick recipe how to set up a dockerized development environment (e.g. for one of my node.js projects abarbanell/loopnav ). This works for MacOS, but the ideas may be usable also elsewhere. We will need the following components in separate docker containers:

• mongo
• rabbitMQ

I took some ideas from:

GIT: https://github.com/relateiq/docker_public

Blog: http://blog.relateiq.com/a-docker-dev-environment-in-24-hours-part-2-of-2/

but in my setup there are a few differences:

• I use boot2docker instead of vagrant
• i use docker-compose to simplify the container setup.

How to use

just

• install boot2docker for MacOS
• install docker-compose

then

git clone https://github.com/abarbanell/devenv.git

this repo, and do one of these commands:

$ devenv.sh up
$ $(bin/devenv.sh shellinit)
$ docker ps
         Name                       Command               State                        Ports
