NGINX webserver that serves a simple page containing its hostname, IP address and port as wells as the request URI and the local time of the webserver.

The images are uploaded to Docker Hub -- https://hub.docker.com/r/nginxdemos/hello/.

How to run:

$ docker run -P -d nginxdemos/hello

Now, assuming we found out the IP address and the port that mapped to port 80 on the container, in a browser we can make a request to the webserver and get the page below:

A plain text version of the image is available as nginxdemos/hello:plain-text. This version returns the same information in the plain text format:

$ curl <ip>:<port>
Server address: 172.17.0.2:80
Server name: 22becba5323d
Date: 07/Feb/2018:16:05:05 +0000
URI: /
Request ID: 48ba0db334a6ed165e783469c2af868f

The images were created to be used as simple backends for various load balancing demos.
