Awesome project! You may already know this, so feel free to ignore me if so. In case this is news, I thought you might find it helpful to know that stack can build docker images for you, and it's quite nice. For example:

image:
  containers:
  - name: foobar
    base: alpine:latest

Motivation

We currently use stackage resolver lts-9.21, which ships with GHC-8.0.2. GHC-8.2 has been stable for a while, and GHC-8.4 is about to land.

Besides compiler enhancements, to keep up with newer stackage resolvers/packages, we must support the latest standard stable GHC+stackage-LTS.

Issues

• Official alpine support for GHC-8.2.1 is still pending.
• Official stack support for alpine is still pending.
  • but I don't think this is a blocker as this repo already demonstrates stack support as long as the resolver specific compiler is already installed globally within the builder env. Which means we just need to address the above issue effectively.
