I intend to build a Gitpod with a RAP workbench in it. For that, I need to build a container. I am aware that there is one in https://hub.docker.com/r/eclipsesource/eclipse-rap-demo/tags but it has no Dockerfile instructions attached to it.

I am wondering if anyone has a Dockerfile or at least instructions for a shell-based start of the container.

Any help appreciate.

Hi Jörn,

the Docker image that you referenced is many years old, and I stopped maintaining it since many years, because there were simpler alternatives that fulfilled my use case.

What I am currently using for the RAP Demo deployments is an Apache Tomcat 9 base image. After creating the war files during build time, I am just copying them into the image like in this Dockerfile:

FROM tomcat:9.0.83-jdk17-corretto

ADD controls.war /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/
ADD workbench.war /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/
ADD rapdemo.war /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/

Does that help you to get started?

Regards,
Markus

It does somewhat. I wanted to use the OSGi dispatch with internal webserver, but maybe dispatching through Tomcat is also a good idea.
