This Docker image can be used to have a local Instance of the Grid.ac (Global Research Identifier Database) data. This way you can even query the data offline. During the build of the image it is figured out which is the latest version of the data. If the latest revision can’t be found the build will fail.
You need to build the image first.
$ docker build --no-cache --tag grid-solr --force-rm .
Then you can start the image.
$ docker run -p 8983:8983 grid-solr
Point your browser to localhost:8983.
