@merrimanr @ottobackwards Hey I think I got this working! See my recent
commit. I had accidentally smashed together two commands, which is why node
stuff was failing.
I was able to get successful builds locally by running the following (after
installing Java 8, per recommendations above):
```
mvn clean install -DskipTests -Drat.skip=true
cd metron-deployment/
mvn clean package -DskipTests -Pbuild-rpms
mvn clean package -DskipTests -Pbuild-debs
```
> Packaging docker containers are too large

> Key: METRON-1650
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-1650
> Project: Metron
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: James Lamb
> Priority: Minor
>
> I have been looking through the project source code, and found that the
> packaging docker containers are bigger than they need to be.
> The containers' size could be cut substantially by:
> * Grouping as many commands as possible into as few RUN stages as possible
> * Taking advantage of `yum clean` and `apt-get clean`
> * Removing artifacts pulled with `wget`
> * Removing unused libraries or libraries only needed at build time (like
> `tar` and `wget`)
> I am creating this issue but will soon submit a PR to address it.
> Thank you for considering my proposal!
