Clojure and Postgresql example

[practicalli-johnny]

Request to add an example service for the Clojure programming language, including a Postgresql database with health-check and conditional start configuration.

Clojure is a language on the Java Virtual Machine and there is an Official Docker Image for Clojure

The most common use of Docker is for Clojure services (back-end application, API, etc) with a relational database

Example details

The example would include a multi-stage Dockerfile to build and run a Clojure service

The example would also include a compose.yaml configuration to build the Clojure service via the Dockerfile configuration, which is dependent on the Postgresql database being healthy.

The compose.yaml would include a Postgresql configuration with healthcheck, to be used by the Clojure service as a conditional start.
