Adding docker support for Steem price feed

I saw this this cool project by @yabapmatt. It is really cool to get the price from 3 exchanges. I particularly like the failover between the different RPC nodes. My price feed has been unreliable the last couple of weeks.

So I decided to add support for docker. Why? That is how I am used to fire my witness node or price feed. I like to setup a docker without going through the installation of different programs, the updates,

New Features

So I made a small update to the project to start the right function through the docker:

"scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1",
    "start": "node feed.js startProcess"
  },

I added the nodejs dockerfile:

FROM node:6-onbuild

I also updated the Readme to give the commands to fire the price feed:

docker build -t pricefeed .
docker run -itd --rm --name pricefeed pricefeed

# Check the status with docker logs
docker logs pricefeed

This of course assume that you have already installed docker on your system.

You can find the pull request there:

My price feed has been running flawlessly for the last days. It hasn't crashed yet. I am pretty happy about that :-).
