Run an NGINX server for a folder
If you're testing a simple frontend-only web site and want an NGINX web server to point at it to let you access the page in a browser via a web server, run the following command from PowerShell within the folder that contains the HTML, etc… to set up a NGINX Docker container pointing at your HTML folder:
docker run -it -d -p 8100:80 -v ${PWD}:/usr/share/nginx/html nginx
If you're using command prompt instead of PowerShell, use:
docker run -it -d -p 8100:80 -v %cd%:/usr/share/nginx/html nginx
You'll then be able to access your site on http://localhost:8100/. You can set the port to any value that's not in use between 1 and 65535 by updating the first part of the -p attribute.
