Reducing docker image size
Created by: rerpha
Description of work
I have reduced the docker image size for the filewriter by reducing the amount of layers in the image.
I'm also looking at a really odd tool called docker-slim which seems to massively reduce the image size so might be worth having a look at this and testing with it.
Issue
Closes #357 (closed)
Acceptance Criteria
To test: run docker build .
in the top directory and use docker images
to compare size.
I will push to docker hub if this gets merged.
