sourcemation/apache repository overview

⁠Apache HTTP Server Container on Debian 13 Slim packed by Sourcemation

This image, sourcemation/apache, is built on a minimal Debian base to provide a robust Apache HTTP Server environment. It's designed for serving web content, handling dynamic requests, and acting as a powerful and flexible web server. The image integrates an essential Apache configuration and can be easily extended with custom modules and site setups.

Maintained by the Sourcemation automation team, this Apache HTTP Server distribution (version 2.4.X) is regularly updated to ensure it's current, secure, and compact. It's built on a minimal Debian Slim base, and cryptographic signatures are used during the build process to guarantee the integrity of all source code and packages.

⁠Core Features

• Apache HTTP Server Integration: Comes with a pre-configured Apache server ready to serve content and handle web traffic.
• Modular Architecture: Enables extending functionality with a wide array of official and third-party modules.
• Custom Configuration: Allows for easy overriding of default configurations by mounting custom httpd.conf files and web content.

⁠Operational Use

This image is intended for production environments where serving web applications and static content is critical. It must be configured by providing your website's content.

Example for a local, non-production test:

docker run -p 8080:8080 -it apache

This command runs the Apache container, mapping port 8080 on your local machine to the container's default HTTP port 8080.

⁠Configuration via Volume Mounts

This container is typically configured by mounting your files into it.

• Serving custom web content: Mount your website's files to /opt/apache2/htdocs/.
• Using a custom configuration: Mount your custom httpd.conf file to /opt/apache2/conf/httpd.conf.

⁠Port Exposure

The standard Apache HTTP Server port, 8080, is exposed by default.
