httpd

The Apache HTTP Server, colloquially called Apache, is a Web server application notable for playing a key role in the initial growth of the World Wide Web. Originally based on the NCSA HTTPd server, development of Apache began in early 1995 after work on the NCSA code stalled. Apache quickly overtook NCSA HTTPd as the dominant HTTP server, and has remained the most popular HTTP server in use since April 1996.

Usage Notes

This image only contains Apache httpd with the defaults from upstream. If you want to run a simple HTML server, create a simple Dockerfile to your project alongside a folder public-html/ containing your HTML to be hosted.

Create a webpage in public-html/index.html as such:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Successfully hosted content on httpd!</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Successfully hosted content on httpd!</h1>
</body>
</html>

Create a Dockerfile in the same directory as public-html:

FROM icr.io/ibmz/httpd:[version]
COPY ./public-html/index.html /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/
EXPOSE 80

Now you can run the commands to build and run the image:

docker build -t my-httpd .
docker run -dit --name my-running-app -p 8097:80 my-httpd

Now, visit [your system IP]:8097 on a web broswer to see the contents of index.html hosted!

Further usage notes and instructions can be found on the docker httpd docs page.
