Hosting site on httpd and nginx docker container

#docker #devops

Docker Project
In this project, I created containers using httpd and nginx images using command

~ docker pull httpd
~ docker run --name httpdproject httpd -d

Then I first stop and then remove this container

* docker stop httpdproject 
* docker rm httpdproject

Then I mount my website content on my container using these commands

~ docker run --name mywebproject -p 8080:80 -v $(pwd)/web:/usr/local/apache2/htdocs:ro -d httpd
~ docker ps

We can check our website will be running on 8080 port which it's redirecting to 80 port of container

Same Process, we will do with nginx

~ docker run --name nginxproject -p 8082:80 -v $(pwd)/web:/usr/share/nginx/html:ro -d nginx

Now, we can see our site will be working on 8082 port.
