Zola is available on the GitHub registry. It has no latest tag, you will need to specify a specific version to pull.
$ docker pull ghcr.io/getzola/zola:v0.19.1 $ docker run -u "$(id -u):$(id -g)" -v $PWD:/app --workdir /app ghcr.io/getzola/zola:v0.19.1 build $ docker run -u "$(id -u):$(id -g)" -v $PWD:/app --workdir /app -p 8080:8080 ghcr.io/getzola/zola:v0.19.1 serve --interface 0.0.0.0 --port 8080 --base-url localhost You can now browse http://localhost:8080.
To enable live browser reload, you may have to bind to port 1024. Zola searches for an open port between 1024 and 9000 for live reload. The new docker command would be
$ docker run -u "$(id -u):$(id -g)" -v $PWD:/app --workdir /app -p 8080:8080 -p 1024:1024 ghcr.io/getzola/zola:v0.19.1 serve --interface 0.0.0.0 --port 8080 --base-url localhost
Since there is no shell in the Zola docker image, if you want to use it from inside a Dockerfile, you have to use the exec form of RUN, like:
FROM ghcr.io/getzola/zola:v0.19.1 as zola COPY . /project WORKDIR /project RUN ["zola", "build"] Zola could be installed using official Winget command:
$ winget install getzola.zola Also it is available on Scoop:
$ scoop install zola and Chocolatey:
$ choco install zola Zola does not work in PowerShell ISE.
To build Zola from source, you will need to have Rust and Cargo installed.
From a terminal, you can now run the following commands:
$ cargo install --locked --git https://github.com/getzola/zola $ zola --version If you encountered compilation errors like error: failed to run custom build command for 'ring v0.16.20', you can try the command below instead:
$ cargo install --locked --no-default-features --features=native-tls --git https://github.com/getzola/zola Cargo will install the zola binary in ~/.cargo/bin/. You can move it into the repository of your site if you want.
