HttPlaceholder is a powerful, open-source HTTP server that allows users to mock endpoints for development and testing purposes. This tutorial will walk you through the process of installing HttPlaceholder on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
Before we can install HttPlaceholder, we need to first install Docker. Follow these steps to install Docker on your Fedora CoreOS Latest machine:
Open a terminal window.
Type the following command to install Docker:
sudo dnf install docker -y
Once the installation is complete, start the Docker service with the following command:
sudo systemctl start docker
Finally, enable the Docker service to start automatically at boot time with the following command:
sudo systemctl enable docker
After installing Docker, we can now proceed to install HttPlaceholder. Follow these steps to install HttPlaceholder:
Pull the HttPlaceholder Docker image from Docker Hub by running the following command:
sudo docker pull dukeofharen/httplaceholder
Once the image has been downloaded, start the HttPlaceholder container with the following command:
sudo docker run -d --name httplaceholder -p 5000:5000 dukeofharen/httplaceholder
This command will start the HttPlaceholder container in detached mode (-d), name the container httplaceholder (--name httplaceholder), and map port 5000 on the host to port 5000 in the container (-p 5000:5000).
Verify that HttPlaceholder is running by navigating to the following URL in your web browser:
http://localhost:5000
If HttPlaceholder is running correctly, you should see a message that says "Welcome to HttPlaceholder!"
Congratulations! You have successfully installed HttPlaceholder on your Fedora CoreOS Latest machine. You can now use HttPlaceholder to mock endpoints for development and testing purposes.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
