docker-ruby-alpine-therubyracer

This image is based on the official Ruby image for Alpine Linux. It contains therubyracer gem and the libv8 gem installed with a V8 engine that's built against the musl C library that Alpine Linux uses.

If you need a JS runtime in your Ruby app, one can, of course, just install NodeJS in Alpine Linux and ExecJS will just use that. If you'd prefer not to use NodeJS, then you can use this image to base your app on.

Example

docker run -it --rm joenyland/ruby-alpine-therubyracer
irb(main):001:0> require 'v8'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> V8::Context.new.eval 5 * 9
=> 45
