Hosting Static HTML & CSS Files via Docker in Coolify

[surjithctly]

So, I had a use-case where I have to host some static html & css files like the olden days using FTP. I cannot use git for some reason, So i tried to use Docker to host it.

I created a new Dockerfile resource and then added a basic nginx server.

FROM nginx:alpine
EXPOSE 80

Now, in coolify settings -> Persistant Storage, I have added a Directory Mount as follows.

Source Path
/var/www/html/my-folder
(I manually copied files to this folder via root@ssh)

Destination Path
/usr/share/nginx/html

Now, I redeployed the server and it worked as expected.

As I'm new to Docker, sharing this here so it will be helpful for someone in the future. If you know about docker, please share if this one has any problem.
