Docker is amazeballs! Stuckless has the key points of what Docker brings to the table. It's essentially a container for an application and all of its specific dependencies and doesn't touch anything outside the container that isn't specifically allowed through host paths.
Another plus side as far as unRAID is concerned is that every time you install a Docker application it creates a template for you. So if you ever need to reinstall it is as simple as selecting your template and clicking a button. Everything will be as it was before because all the settings such as your key and paths are stored in the template.
Even if I were to install this on a regular Linux installation I would still use the Docker image because there's no worry about dependencies polluting the rest of the system or messing up other software.
