# If you wish to have some minimal editor, telnet and text-browser functionality
# for interactive mode in docker, you can uncomment the following line: 
# RUN apt-get install -y nano telnet w3m

# Start the webanno service and continously tail the tomcat log file output
# to the shell so the container does not shutdown immediatly after command execution
# and keeps running. Moreover, log output tells you if everything went ok 
# The terminal be killed while the container and thus webanno remains active.
