Unable to locally start web app from container

[nathanshammah]

I use Visual Studio Code (with Docker Desktop installed) on a Mac (Mac OS Catilina 10.15.7).

I updated the metriq-api git repository up to recent merge of #113.

In Visual Studio Code, I open the folder, which prompted a long installation (15 minutes, as it asked to install various extensions, including one for MongoDB), running the scripts contained in the Dockerfile:

added 2016 packages from 816 contributors and audited 2023 packages in 970.459s

If I go to the ports this is what it looks like:

If I open the ports in the browser,

• http://localhost:27018/ reads It looks like you are trying to access MongoDB over HTTP on the native driver port.
• http://localhost:3000/ is stuck on loading
• http://localhost:8080/ gives the following error

As a side comment, previously I was able to start, without the container, the API, DB and APP with:

in metriq-api: node index
brew services start mongodb-community
open mongodb compass and type `mongodb://localhost:27017/`
in metriq-db: 
mongoimport --db metriq --collection users users.json
mongoimport --db metriq --collection tags tags.json
mongoimport --db metriq --collection tasks tasks.json
mongoimport --db metriq --collection submissions submissions.json
mongoimport --db metriq --collection results results.json
mongoimport --db metriq --collection methods method.json
in metriq-app: npm start

but now I get an error. I did edit since the .bashrc file as advised in the Readme, skipping the lines that involved redacted tokens.
