Proxy API Requests from Dockerized React App to Dockerized REST API

Usage

  • Start the Dockerized CRA

    • cd docker-cra
    • docker container run -it -p 3000:3000 -p 35729:35729 -v $(pwd):/app react:app

  • Start the Dockerized REST API

    • cd hello-world-rest
    • docker run -ti --rm -p 5050:5050 vad1mo/hello-world-rest

  • Load Dockerized React App frontend at http://localhost:3000

    • Click the button to test a request proxied from http://localhost:3000/api through to Dockerized REST API exposed at http://localhost:5050

  • Or, just hit http://localhost:3000/api/path1/path2 (where path1/path2 are any paths - the REST API just echos them back).

  • Hit the Dockerized API directly at http://localhost:5050/path1/path2
