Example apps that demonstate how to use Docker with your favorite web frameworks.
This repo is no longer maintained but the idea of having up to date example
apps is still something I’m actively working on.
All of the examples from this repo (and more) have been moved into their own
dedicated repos and have been improved upon.
You can find new and up to date examples here:
- https://github.com/nickjj/docker-flask-example
- https://github.com/nickjj/docker-django-example
- https://github.com/nickjj/docker-rails-example
- https://github.com/nickjj/docker-node-example
- https://github.com/nickjj/docker-phoenix-example
- https://github.com/oleksandra-holovina/docker-play-example (Thanks Lexie!)
More examples are on the way!
Example Apps That Demonstrate How to Use Docker with Your Favorite Web Frameworks
But aren’t there a million tutorials out there that do this already?
Yes, but a lot of those tutorials are outdated and there’s no quality control.
Some might be great, but others may contain questionable decisions. This repo
will attempt to stay on the bleeding edge for both Docker and web framework
versions, and since it’s open source, we can all contribute our best practices
together.
Goals
- Be as minimal as possible without compromising readability
- Be as fast as possible for build times without compromising readability
- Deal with development and production app configuration in a reasonable way
- Remain updated to take advantage of the latest and greatest Docker / app features
Getting Started
Each framework and language has their own folder. As time goes on, more examples
will be added.
1. Do You Have Docker and Docker Compose Installed?
It’s expected that you already have Docker and Docker Compose installed. If not,
head over to Docker’s website and install a
version of Docker for your operating system of choice.
2. Clone This Repo
git clone https://github.com/nickjj/docker-web-framework-examples
cd docker-web-framework-examples
You’ll find a README.md file in each folder with specific instructions and
notes for that framework / language.
Supported Frameworks / Languages
This list is ever growing, so if you don’t see your web framework of choice,
open a PR.
