Provides a minimal webserver (via Express.js) to expose static files from the Docker host via HTTP. This image is build on Alpine Linux (base image mhart/alpine-node:0.10.40) and aims for a minimal size.

You can expose a local directory which you want to have served via the mini-webserver by starting it with

docker run --name mini-web -p 8080:3000 -v /path/to/local/folder:/app/public:ro -d tobilg/mini-webserver

In this example, the port on the docker host where the mini-webserver is reachable is 8080.

The Express.js app uses morgan to pipe the web logs to the STDOUT. This means that the logs are visible via docker logs mini-web (if the container name is mini-web).
