I ended up building the docker image by myself without the plugin:

docker build -f Dockefile .

And my Dockefile (has been renamed):

FROM java:8-jdk
EXPOSE 8080
#VOLUME /tmp

ADD target/app-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar /opt/demo/app-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
CMD ["java","-jar","/opt/demo/app-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar"]

I then run it like so:

 docker run 

I just couldn't get the mvn plugin to work!

Edit

Furthermore I ended up creating a docker-compose.yml which makes things a lot simpler!!!

You define properties such as the ports you want open, dockerfile location, and run docker-compose, and it'll magically build+run the docker image!

Example docker-compose.yml that I'm using:

version: '2'
services:
  web:
    build: .
    ports:
     - "8080:8080"

build references the Dockerfile location. *Note you may need to the Dockerfile+yml file to be in the same location!

ports reference the ports I want open. Now I can goto localhost:8080 and my request will be forwarded to the docker container.
