+# This is a script that does the following:
+# * Pull madlib/postgres_9.6:latest from docker;
+# * Mount your local madlib directory to docker container;
+# * Build madlib from source; build dir is /madlib/docker_build which
+# is mounted to your local madlib dir
+# * Install madlib and run install check;
+# * Log in to docker container from shell as postgres user, so that you
+# can run psql and start using madlib from here
+#
+# Note: you have to run this script from one level up from your madlib
+# directory, for example, ~/workspace which has madlib src directory there

Please take `latest` as an optional param. We will then be able to use this
script for other tags such as `jenkins` and `LaTex`.
