Development instructions

When I run the docker container locally, the container successfully starts, but is inaccessible when visiting the port on localhost:8080.

Am I missing something about a local development environment? I was planning to build the docker image for other work but wanted to start with just the base image here.

> curl http://localhost:8080
curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 8080 after 0 ms: Couldn't connect to server

After further investigation, I think the cause of this is me not having a valid IPV6 address to hand out. IPV6 seems like it should be an optional feature. Would you be open to a PR that allows for configuration with an IPV4 if one cannot be found with the "get ipv6 address" call?
