Just stole this nice little dockerfile for a pet-project. Thanks for putting it out.
Btw: you do not need the first RUN to create the directory. WORKDIR will do that for you if it does not exist. :)

Ooh! Didn't know that! Updated 👍

Got this error when trying to run the container. Any idea? docker: Error response from daemon: OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:345: starting container process caused "exec: \"./main\": permission denied": unknown.

Does main exist? The example copies to /main from the build container rather than ./main
