This image wraps up the Apache htpasswd utility for creating, verifying and updating auth database files, for use in a variety of web servers.
To run this in your local Docker daemon:
$ docker run --rm -it filefrog/htpasswd -nB user
New password:
Re-type new password:
user:$2y$05$G7ettX3mGfcd2AD9RAYZRea7t.z5ZwM9bT5MYqzF16Ru8aLu4euIy
This will prompt for a password, and then emit the line for the named user, to be appended to an existing auth file, or to use for creating a brand new one.
If you already have the password, and want to automate, you can
use the -b flag and run it thusly:
$ docker run --rm -it filefrog/htpasswd -bnB user foo
user:$2y$05$KwL/0RbBVIZibn9Oeah18.y7uZ8G7i1/bDqva7oyHejSKAZL2K5X2
In fact, if you forget how to use htpasswd itself, just run the
image as a container, and pass it the -h flag:
$ docker run --rm -it filefrog/htpasswd -h
This image is so dang useful, I often alias htpasswd itself to
the docker run ... incantation:
$ alias htpasswd='docker run --rm -it filefrog/htpasswd'
$ htpasswd -bnB user password
etc.
The Makefile handles building pushing. For jhunt's:
make push
Is all that's needed for release. If you want to build it locally, you can instead use:
make build
If you want to tag it to your own Dockerhub username:
IMAGE=you-at-dockerhub/htpasswd make build push
By default, the image is tagged latest. You can supply your own
tag via the TAG environment variable:
IMAGE=... TAG=$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S) make build push
Happy Hacking!
