Docker Services Orchestration Demonstration

This is a demo application from the Docker for Web Developers course on Pluralsight that demonstrates how multiple services can be integrated and orchestrated using Docker and Docker Compose.

  1. Install Docker for Mac or Docker for Windows from http://docker.com

  2. Set APP_ENV environment variable (using "set" rather than "export" for Windows):

    export APP_ENV=development

  3. Set your Docker Hub account (any string value will work if you don't have an account):

    export DOCKER_ACCT=<yourHubUserName>

  4. Run docker-compose build

  5. Run docker-compose up

  6. Visit http://localhost in a browser

  7. Live long and prosper

Note: You won't see any data in the page that displays in the browser. To seed the database run the following:

docker exec -it node-codewithdan-1 bash

node dbSeeder.js

Press ctrl-c to exit the shell. You can close the dbSeeder command prompt once you're done.
