This docker image contains OpenJDK 8 with Jetty 9.3.0 (build 2015-06-12).
To serve your web application, simply mount a volume at /opt/jetty/webapps. By default, the container will start jetty with java -jar start.jar jetty.home=/opt/jetty, where the WORKDIR is /opt/jetty. For example:
docker run -p 8080:8080 -v /path/to/dir:/opt/jetty/webapps niaquinto/jettyThis will start an instance of Jetty serving your WARs out of /path/to/dir on the host. Alternatively, you can (and should!) use a data-only container and --link data-container-name:data.
You'll likely also want to either use a context.xml file to set the context path to your app, or name your WAR root.war to find you app at /
Note: If you're using this for just a quick test, or local development, my other image (niaquinto/docker-gradle on GitHub / docker pull niaquinto/gradle from the registry) may better suit your needs. You can launch a Jetty instance by including apply plugin: 'jetty' in your build.gradle and running gradle jettyRun.
To build this image yourself, run...
docker build github.com/niaquinto/docker-jettyOr, you can pull the image from the central docker repository by using...
docker pull niaquinto/jetty
