React-Django App

How to do containerization?

Steps to create and run image and container on Docker

1. Create an EC2 instance on AWS (optional)

2. Install docker on your machine
   >sudo apt-get update

   >sudo apt-get install docker.io

3. Add user into the docker group to perform required actions

   \>sudo usermod -aG docker $USER

4. Reboot your machine to apply the changes

   \>sudo reboot

5. Clone the git repository

   \>git clone repository_URL

6. Now write a Docker file for the Python Django app.

   >vim Dockerfile

   

   Key points for creating a Dockerfile are:

   • Check the README.md file to understand the project's tools and requirements.

   • Check the requirements or pom file for required libraries.

   • Use the RUN instruction when you need to execute any command during image creation.

   • Use the CMD instruction for container commands.

     1. Now build the Docker image using Dockerfile

        >docker build . -t react-django-app:latest

     2. To check whether the image has been created or not, use the below command.

        >docker images

     3. To create a container from the above image, use the below command.

        \> docker run -d -p 8001:8001 react-django-app:latest

     4. To check the docker logs use attach command

        \>docker attach container_id
