docker-pyx

Dockerfile for building http://pretendyoure.xyz/ code

• [https://github.com/ajanata/PretendYoureXyzzy] (https://github.com/ajanata/PretendYoureXyzzy)

Requirements

• https://www.docker.com/
• (if on Win/OSX) http://boot2docker.io/

Usage

Building

Build the Docker image

docker build -t "pyx" .

Running

Run the Docker image

docker -d -p 8080:8080 pyx

Using

(On Linux) Visit

http://localhost:8080

(On OSX) Run

open "http://$(boot2docker ip):8080/"

(On Win) Get the IP from boot2docker ip, and visit:

http://<your boot2docker ip>:8080/

Stopping/Cleanup

To stop the service:

docker ps -l
docker stop <at least 4 characters of the id>
docker rm <at least 4 characters of the id>

Alternatively, if you start the container with:

docker run -p 8080:8080 --rm pxy

It'll clean up after itself, but you can't run this with the -d flag, which puts it in the background.

Also, you could run:

docker run -p 8080:8080 --rm -it pxy

Which will keep the terminal attached, and also allow you to ctrl+c to stop jetty and break out of the container.

Notes:

• To serve pyx to external clients while using boot2docker, you'll need to setup a reverse proxy (nginx/haproxy, etc), or add a bridged network adapter to your boot2docker VM.
• Why Docker??? Because I didn't want to actually install maven. :]
