Docker

[pan261]

As I see it now, we can have the following services/containers when using docker:

1. auth server
2. waterjet watcher
3. lathe watcher
4. gantry watcher
5. mill watcher
6. db

Splitting it up like this may solve some of the concurrency issues with node, such that we don't have to implement a multi-process application within node, we'll just let docker take care of the work.

As for tasks: we will have to configure the docker-compose file and other environment variables

Each watcher will be managed by a task runner, and we will use the same process but feed different folder IDs through command line arguments when creating the docker containers

The auth server will only have to pass credentials to other containers, which can be done through http requests, as for the db, we may need to set up a shared volume
