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.

For anyone else curious, Nextcloud has WebDAV out of the box, too.
Caddy.
{ order webdav before file_server } webdav.example.com { root * /data/webdav basicauth { user1 hashed-password } webdav }Takes less than a minute.
Nginx is easy to setup as WebDAV server.
I often use dufs
I use https://sftpgo.com/ at home for backing up and accessing files. It’s a private unshared network and it works well.
Nice idea! But how to create different shares with different users? Can it authenticate via SSO?
