I'm trying to create a simple static web using nginx, and want to have everything created by Dockerfile, the problem is whenever I tried to create an index.html file, it comes out with error, I even tried to test it and its working with "index.htm" but not with the correct format.
FROM centos:7
#update and install nginx section
RUN yum update -y
RUN yum install -y epel-release
RUN yum install -y nginx
#create path and add index.html
WORKDIR /usr/share/nginx/html
#this one working with no issue
RUN touch index.htm
#this one will get failed
RUN touch index.html
EXPOSE 80/tcp
CMD ["nginx", "-g", "daemon off;"]
and this is the error output:
majid@DESKTOP-39CBKO0:~/nginx_simple_web$ docker build -t simple-web:v1 .

remove it and re-create it:

RUN yum update -y
RUN yum install -y epel-release
RUN yum install -y nginx
RUN yum install -y vim

RUN touch index.html

Do note that you should, in general, combine multiple RUN
commands together.
CodePudding user response:
you should create a file and you can use
COPY index.html index.html
command into Dockerfile to copy a file into image when build
or use
echo " " > index.html command to create a file
CodePudding user response:
You can create a new file using echo
:
RUN echo " " > index.htm
CodePudding user response:
In your Dockerfile you can use RUN {command}
like in the commandline.
RUN mkdir -p /home/foo/
RUN echo "Hello World" > /home/foo/index.html
