Kong docker image that easily installs plugins from source code.

kong-docker

The Docker image generated by the Dockerfile on this repository can easily install Kong plugins from the source code.

A Kong configuration file containing the plugin names is automatically generated when the Docker container is started. The plugin description file (.rockspec) must be valid following the specifications in https://github.com/luarocks/luarocks/wiki/Rockspec-format.

Plugins can be loaded from volumes in a docker-compose description file. The configuration below shows how the image can be used.
