Add Docker instance to run MkDocs
Closed this issue · 4 comments
Build a Docker image so one doesn't need to install Python or mkdocs on this site.
(It should be similar to https://github.com/codethesaurus/codethesaur.us/blob/main/Dockerfile except instead of running the Django site, it'll run the MkDocs server instead.
See https://www.mkdocs.org/#installation for more on the MkDocs executable.
Hey I am new opensource developer participating in the hactoberfest. I have gone through the links you have mentioned in the issue and, after a bit of google-ing on how to create a dockerfile, I think I can do this, could you please assign me this issue so I can start working on it.
Hey @mvvsmk, sure! I'll assign you. And congrats on deciding to start contributing to open source projects!
You can also maybe borrow from any existing images that seem to be MkDocs-related: https://hub.docker.com/search?q=mkdocs&type=image
Also it should be pretty simple. You can also look at the Dockerfile in the codethesaurus/codethesaur.us repo and it should be fairly similar.
I am fairly versed in Docker but just haven't had the time to sit down to work on this, but if you have questions, I'll make the time to answer them!
FINALLLYYY added the the pull request #14 , spent like 3-4 hs on this XD, most of it was learning the terminology, learnt a lot about what are containers, dockers, how to access the ports of these containers via external browsers.Thank you for this opportunity. If you want any changes done in the code submitted for the pull request do let me know.
Solved in #14 but wasn't linked right, so closing this manually.
