IronFunctions using Postgres

Let's presuppose you don't have even a MySQL DB ready.

1. Let's start a MySQL instance:

docker run --name iron-mysql \
        -e MYSQL_DATABASE=funcs -e MYSQL_USER=iron -e MYSQL_PASSWORD=ironfunctions -d mysql

For more configuration options, see docker mysql docs.

2. Now let's start IronFunctions connecting to our new mysql instance

docker run --rm --privileged --link "iron-mysql:mysql" \
    -e "DB_URL=mysql://iron:ironfunctions@tcp(mysql:3306)/funcs" \
    -it -p 8080:8080 iron/functions
