Here are some smaller ones for testing:

Move zim file to downloads
.
Execute the following command to copy the files to zims
$ cp downloads/wikipedia_en_simple_all_nopic_2020-10.zim zims/
This will create the Linux machine, download the Kiwix tools (including kiwix-serve
), copy the ZIMfiles over, then create the Kiwix library XML file.
$ pwd # -> ./dockerized-kiwix-server
$ docker build -t kiwix-serve .
This starts the container and the Kiwix server, and makes it available on your machine at http://localhost:8080
.
$ docker run -p 8080:8080 kiwix-serve
To turn it off:
$ docker ps # -> find the container id
$ docker stop <container id>
Go to http://localhost:8080.
