Ghost on Docker

Ghost Docker

The purpose of this repo is to provide an easy and repeatable way to customize a ghost install.

Any themes, settings, routes, redirects, ect will be written to the ghost install as if it was in the ghost root directory. This is useful because a ghost install may require some setup and switching providers would only require a image pull.

You can test out a ghost install on your local machine, for example and deploy to a virtual machine or a rasberry pi for production.

Base Docker Image

• node

Installation

1. Install Docker.

2. docker run -p 80:80 behoyh/ghost

   (alternatively, you can build an image from Dockerfile: docker build -t="behoyh/ghost" github.com/behoyh/ghost)

Customizing Ghost

Add override files in the /data directory of the repo. Treat this as the root ghost folder. If you'd like to override content/data place a content folder like so:

(yes, it's a bit unintuitive to place /content/data in /data)

Usage

docker run -p 80:80 behoyh/ghost

After few seconds, open http://<host> for blog or http://<host>/ghost for admin page.
