How to easily run a Webdav server in a Docker container
A lot of open source software lets you synchronise data via webdav, but how do you get a #webdav server?
Using Apache with the dav module is a common approach, but I couldn't bother to set it up that way.
My way is different: Rclone can act as a webdav server and is easy to configure.
I've been using it for 3 years and it's very reliable.
Have a look at the compose file in the picture.
@selfhosted
For anyone else curious, Nextcloud has WebDAV out of the box, too.
@fmstrat @selfhosted As far as I know, everything behind the scenes of #Nextcloud is WebDAV.
Simple services like #Syncthing or baikal for CalDAV are sufficient. I just don't like Nextcloud.
