How to run Writebook in port 80 instead of 5555

I have installed Writebook in an Oracle Cloud instance. Writebook uses Docker, and it gets installed by default in host port 5555. However, I want to run Writebook in port 80 of the host because it makes it easier to expose it to the Internet from an Oracle Cloud instance.

  • Stop Docker
  • Edit hostconfig.json for your container hash sudo vi /var/lib/docker/containers/CONTAINERHASH/hostconfig.json and replace "HostPort":"5555" with replace "HostPort":"80".
  • Start Docker.
