⁠Docker htpasswd Volumes

This Docker image will create dynamically htpasswd files to be used with other docker containers that requires a htpasswd file.

⁠Basic Usage

You have to define at least 3 variables (HTCOUNT, USER1 and PWD1). Once the container is up and running will have a file /etc/htpasswd.d/htpasswd with the passwords.

Create the volume

docker run \ 
    -e HTCOUNT=2 \
    -e USR1=john -e PWD1=mypassword \
    -e USR2=jane -e PWD2=herpassword \
    --name htpasswd-volume-instance \
    -t -d byjg/htpasswd-volume

Attach the volume in your application

docker run \
    ...
    --volumes-from htpasswd-volume-instance
    ...

Once you are running with --volumes-from you can refer inside your docker container the file /etc/htpasswd.d/htpasswd

  web:
    image: nginx
