How to start a container?

The value of the DefaultHostName option is automatically calculated as the IP address of the container in the Docker network or as the IP address of the host machine:

# Using the host machine's network
docker run -d --name webone_1 \
    --network host \
    --restart unless-stopped \
    kyzimaspb/webone

# Or in a custom bridge network with port forwarding:
docker network create webone
docker run -d --name webone_1 \
    --network webone \
    -p "8080:8080" \
    --restart unless-stopped \
    kyzimaspb/webone

To view the WebOne log, use the command:

docker logs -f webone_1

To use custom settings, mount the directory or file to the mount point /opt/webone/webone.conf.d. A numeric prefix in the file name can be used to set the priority of configurations:

docker run -d --name webone_1 \
    --restart unless-stopped \
    --network host \
    -v "./custom.conf:/opt/webone/webone.conf.d/100_custom.conf:ro" \
    kyzimaspb/webone

docker run -d --name webone_1 \
    --restart unless-stopped \
    --network host \
    -v "./webone.conf.d:/opt/webone/webone.conf.d:ro" \
    kyzimaspb/webone

How to run a container as another user?

The image is not user-specific. If you want to run as a different user, use the -u argument of the docker run command or other built-in capabilities:

docker run -d --name webone_1 \
    --network host \
    --restart unless-stopped \
    -u 1001:1001 \
    kyzimaspb/webone

How to limit resource usage?

You can use all resource limits available for the docker run command. For example, limit the amount of RAM:

docker run -d --name webone_1 \
    --network host \
    --restart unless-stopped \
    -m 512M \
    kyzimaspb/webone

How to create a custom image?

How to change WebOne version?

The WEBONE_VERSION build argument allows you to specify the version of WebOne:

git clone https://github.com/kyzima-spb/webone.git
docker build \
    --build-arg WEBONE_VERSION=0.16.0 \
    -t webone \
    -f ./docker/Dockerfile \
    ./docker/root

How to change .NET version?

The DOTNET_VERSION build argument allows you to specify the version of .NET SDK. The value is part of the ${DOTNET_VERSION}-alpine${ALPINE_VERSION} tag. Available tags can be viewed on the official Microsoft website:

git clone https://github.com/kyzima-spb/webone.git
docker build \
    --build-arg DOTNET_VERSION=7.0 \
    -t webone \
    -f ./docker/Dockerfile \
    ./docker/root
