Dockerize Mailcatcher to catch emails during development
# Run a daemon container with mailcatcher started
sudo docker run \
-d \ # Daemon mode
--name mailcatcher \ # Give a name to your container, so you can start/stop or link it later
birkof/docker-mailcatcher
Now you can access to the mailcatcher smtp throught the 25
port and the web interface via http://localhost
Feel free to map ports differently.
# Build manually the image
make build # sudo docker build -t birkof/docker-mailcatcher .
# Test the image by running a container that launch nginx
make run # sudo docker run --rm=true -t -i -p 80:80 birkof/docker-mailcatcher
# Then check http://localhost:80
# Remove the image
make clear # sudo docker rmi -f birkof/docker-mailcatcher
