So I think I've isolated what I want to do with my docker plugin: 1. build a binary dependency in the target build folder 2. copy any source/resources dependencies to the target build folder 3. copy the Dockerfile itself to the target build folder 4. run

docker build $options $target_build_folder

5. perhaps save the SHA of the built image in a file in the

dist

folder to help with caching? I'm not really sure where to begin with this, and i'm sure there are some still-tangled assumptions in there, but could someone point me in the right direction for this?
