A Simple & Compact (< ~8.5 MB) Python webserver in a Docker Container.
By default, listens on port 8080
To serve files, volume mount a directory to /var/www inside the container.
To listen on port 8080 and serve files from directory /tmp/ on the host:
sudo docker run -d -v /tmp/:/var/www:ro -p 8080:8080 trinitronx/python-simplehttpserver
To listen on port 80 and serve files from directory /home/foo on the host:
sudo docker run --name python_simplehttpserver -d -v /home/foo:/var/www:ro -p 80:8080 trinitronx/python-simplehttpserver
To run server so it is only accessible to linked containers:
sudo docker run --name python_simplehttpserver -d -v /tmp/:/var/www:ro -p 8080:8080 trinitronx/python-simplehttpserver
# Then run your container & link it...
sudo docker run -ti --link python_simplehttpserver busybox wget -O - http://python_simplehttpserver:8080/
# Another example:
# Use with trinitronx/fastest-servers as a MIRRORLIST_HOST for serving up mirrors.txt file for fastest-servers.rb to filter down to fastest found
sudo docker run -ti --link python_simplehttpserver -e FASTEST_SERVER_DEBUG=true -e MIRRORLIST_HOST=python_simplehttpserver -e MIRRORLIST_PORT=8080 -v /tmp/:/tmp/ trinitronx/fastest-servers
