Elixir Docker Image Builder

Build deployable Elixir applications for Docker usage

The project consists of a mix task (mix-edib) and the edib tool docker image.

It is successfully tested on Travis CI and CircleCI, see test repo at https://github.com/edib-tool/edib-app-test-ci

More information about the motivation at https://github.com/edib-tool/elixir-docker-image-builder

Recent changes: It seems to be usable even under Windows, thanks to contributions.
