How to setup JNLP file containerized application?

Question

How to set up a JNLP file containerized application? I said containerized app because I will be setting up many of these same apps for different users with different login credentials. Help me please.

Hello Vanavah Edwards-Admin

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform, thanks for posting your query here.

To set up a JNLP file containerized application, you can use Docker to create a container image of your application and then deploy it to a container registry. Here are the general steps:

1. Create a Dockerfile that specifies the base image, installs Java, and copies the JNLP file and any other necessary files into the container.
2. Build the Docker image using the Dockerfile and tag it with a name and version.
3. Push the Docker image to a container registry, such as Docker Hub or Azure Container Registry.
4. Deploy the Docker image to a container orchestration platform, such as Kubernetes or Docker Swarm.
5. Configure the container to use the JNLP file and any necessary login credentials.

You can build this Dockerfile using the docker build command and then push the resulting image to a container registry using the docker push command.

Once the image is in the container registry, you can deploy it to a container orchestration platform and configure it to use the JNLP file and any necessary login credentials.

Hope this helps.
