Dockerized Nginx static file checker

Sample project using two linked docker containers

• static-server: An nginx proxy that checks if a file exists on the filesystem for the current URI and serves it, or proxies the request to an application server otherwise. E.g. GET /some/route -> /static_root/some/route.html.

• api_server: Very simple test application receiving the proxied requests.

Try

• Make sure to have docker installed and running.
  (Archlinux) pacman -S docker && systemctl start docker

• Fetch both docker images. (TODO)
  docker pull olanod/test-api-server olanod/test-static-server

• or Build the images
  docker build olanod/test-api-server . (from api-server)
  docker build olanod/test-static-server . (from static-server)

• Run to test the created containers
  docker run --name api-server olanod/test-api-server
docker run -p 80 --link api-server olanod/test-static-server
