alpine-tomcat8

alpine-tomcat8 is Alpine Linux based Tomcat 8 installation. See CHANGELOG.md for detail description.

Prerequisites

Tested with

• Docker 18.09.2
• bash 3.2.57

Contains

• Alpine Linux
• Java Open JDK 8
• Tomcat 8.5.24
• Tomcat Native 1.2.17

Build

Clone repo

git clone git@github.com:alex-ber/alpine-tomcat8.git

Create image

docker build . -t alexberkovich/alpine-tomcat8

Or even, if you run the daemon with experimental features enabled:

docker build --squash . -t alexberkovich/alpine-tomcat8

In Docker 1.13, a new --squash parameter was added. It can be used to reduce the size of an image by removing files which are not present anymore, and reduce multiple layers to a single one between the origin and the latest stage.

You may want to do some cleanup first:

docker rm -f openjdk8; docker rmi alexberkovich/alpine-tomcat8

DockerHub

Image available on DockerHub

docker pull alexberkovich/alpine-tomcat8

docker exec -it alpine-tomcat8 bash
