Simple app django with Docker

Getting started with docker and simple app Django

All documentation to install Docker:

Generaly in projects that will be in production we build our own image, but here is a simple demo so, I'm abstracting this step.

Building image:

$ docker build -t demo_app .

The argument -t means tag the name of our image.

Running:

$ docker run -it -p 8080:8080  demo_app

About arguments:

  • -i means --interactive keep stdin open even if not attached.
  • -t allocate a pseudo-tty,
  • -p public a port from container to one port on the machine running the container.

Those arguments will allow you interact with the container as a simple app on your machine, as a exemple without them you will couldn't pass values to create a superuser as requested at the last line of dockerfile.

Finally Acess your:

localhost - localhost:8080
