Expose ability to set java options?

[deg]

This repo, together with your docker-datomic-example is great; it does 99% of what I need right now.

But, you didn't expose any way to pass flags into bin/transactor. (e.g. -Xmx)

I was about to spend some time re-learning my Docker fu to do this and send you a PR, but I was just scolded on Slack for yak-shaving.

So, just noting it here as a feature request. Thanks!

Hahah, thanks for the feedback, the feature request, and the laugh. No shaving yaks! We'll look into this as soon as time permits. Can't promise a timeline yet, but we should have some spare cycles soon.

@deg The transactor script respects JAVA_OPTS so you can do something like this:

docker run -e JAVA_OPTS="-server -Xms1g -Xmx1g -XX:+UseG1GC" ...

No need to shave anything ;-)

Ohhh! Funny thing is that I just started using JAVA_OPTS for something else yesterday, but had forgotten about this.

I'll revisit this now, and clean up my deployment.

Thanks!
