nginx image with python 3.6 installed.

starts with nginx base image that uses alpine 3.9 as that has the the right pyton version when doing apk install

adds in bash as well.

changes default to map to site so its easier to run and map volume

Serving static content

to run against the current dir you in docker run -p 8000:80 -v $PWD:/site -d yakworks/nginx-python or docker run -it --rm -p 8000:80 -v $PWD:/site yakworks/nginx-python

Then you can hit http://localhost:8080 or http://host-ip:8080 in your browser.

or with a dockerfile

FROM yakworks/nginx-python
COPY static-html-directory /usr/share/nginx/html

Place this file in the same directory as your directory of content ("static-html-directory"), run docker build -t some-content-nginx ., then start your container:

$ docker run --name some-nginx -d some-content-nginx

Exposing external port

$ docker run --name some-nginx -d -p 8080:80 some-content-nginx

Then you can hit http://localhost:8080 or http://host-ip:8080 in your browser.

Override Config

if you want to override the default.conf map volume file to the /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf

docker run -p 8000:80 \
-v /host/some-content:/site \
-v /host/default.conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf \
-d yakworks/nginx-python

With Basic Auth

If a AUTH_USERNAME is passed in then it will use auth.conf to require a login to access the site. Takes care of running htpasswd to generate the hash form the AUTH_PASSWORD

docker run -p 8000:80 \
-e AUTH_USERNAME=guest \
-e AUTH_PASSWORD=fooBar! \
-v /host/some-content:/site \
-d yakworks/nginx-python
