noVNC is a VNC client using HTML5 (Web Sockets, Canvas) with encryption (wss:https://) support.
noVNC-Docker is a Docker image that bundles the noVNC client and WebSocket-to-TCP proxy/bridge, websockify, for ease-of-use.
docker pull gotget/novnc
Since there's no external files that are added in, it's easy to build a local image directly from GitHub:
docker build --tag gotget/novnc https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gotget/docker-novnc/master/Dockerfile
docker run \
--name noVNC \
--detach \
--publish 80:6080 \
gotget/novnc \
--vnc HOST:PORT
docker run \
--name noVNC \
--detach \
--publish 443:6080 \
--cert server.pem \
--ssl-only \
gotget/novnc \
--vnc HOST:PORT
Maybe you'd like to have a reverse proxy from Nginx to noVNC? This is easy to accomplish with Docker Compose, and you'll notice the format resembles that of the article, Thad.Getterman.org : Adding Django to Nginx with Docker.
