How to deploy my app inside docker to ubuntu server-CodePudding

I have an app running on docker. I am gonna deploy it to ubuntu server.

So I want that when i call domain or ip from browser (ex: mydomain.com) it displays my app in browser.

What configuration should I do in docker or apache conf. file?

Thank you!

The answer depends on many details you did not provide about your application.

In general you should write a docker compose file like this:

version: "3.5"

services:
  nginx:
    container_name: my-app
    image: ubuntu:latest
    hostname: myapp.com
    ports:
      - 80:8080
    entrypoint: sh -c /myapp-init-command.sh
    volumes:
      - /www/host/folder:/var/www/html

As you can see you should decide on which web server rely on.

For example, if you need of apache you should change image to a one which provides ready to use apache, or write a docker file which installs it into a stock ubuntu server like the one provided in my example.

Here an example of this...

docker file

FROM ubuntu:latest

ARG DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive

RUN apt update 
RUN apt install apache2 -y

ENV APACHE_RUN_USER www-data
ENV APACHE_RUN_GROUP www-data
ENV APACHE_LOG_DIR /var/log/apache2

EXPOSE 8080
CMD ["apachectl", "-D",  "FOREGROUND"]

docker compose file

version: "3.5"

services:
  nginx:
    container_name: my-app
    build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: myapp.dockerfile
    hostname: myapp.com
    ports:
      - 80:8080
    volumes:
      - /www/host/folder:/var/www/html
