Dockerfile and configuration files to build a working Flask container with uwsgi and nginx

Primary LanguageJavaScript

Flask app generate with swagger-py-codegen, uWSGI and Nginx in a container

This Dockerfile allows you to build a Docker container with a fairly standard and speedy setup for Flask with uWSGI and Nginx.

uWSGI from a number of benchmarks has shown to be the fastest server for python applications and allows lots of flexibility.

Nginx has become the standard for serving up web applications and has the additional benefit that it can talk to uWSGI using the uWSGI protocol, further elinimating overhead.

Most of this setup comes from the excellent tutorial on https://uwsgi.readthedocs.org/en/latest/tutorials/Django_and_nginx.html http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/deploying/uwsgi/#configuring-nginx

Feel free to clone this and modify it to your liking. And feel free to contribute patches.

Build and run

  • docker build -t webapp .
  • docker run -d -p 80:80 webapp

How to insert your application

Update api.yaml

  • make all Update files under /app project

uWSGI chdirs to /app so in uwsgi.ini you will need to make sure the python path to the wsgi.py file is relative to that.

Change nginx-app.conf for FQDN
