Guide to containerizing drogon in Docker

[AntonyMouawad]

Hello,
I'm new to drogon and creating new docker containers, although I've used them before. I was wondering if there was a guide to creating a drogon rest server in docker. I've not found one, and was hoping there might be someone who could point me in the right direction.

Thanks!

I am using drogon with conan package manager.
