A list of Docker files to dockerize Phoenix applications.

Setup development environment

To start working on your Phoenix project with Docker, first be sure to have Docker installed, following the instructions provided here.

Then, copy into your project's folder the Docker files (Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml) according to the Phoenix's version you want to use, and change the YOUR_APP_FOLDER_NAME value on the Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml file to the name of your project's folder.

This basic templates have two main volumes: one for the application itself, and one for the database (postgres). So you will have to change your database config in order to use this new volume to something like this:

# Configure your database for dev environment
config :you_app_name, YourAppName.Repo,
  adapter: Ecto.Adapters.Postgres,
  username: "postgres",
  password: "",
  database: "your_app_name_dev",
  hostname: "db",
  pool_size: 10

Once you have done this, you're ready to use your Phoenix application by executing these commands on your terminal:

  • Setup the web container with docker-compose build web
  • Install dependencies with docker-compose run web mix deps.get
  • Create your database with docker-compose run web mix ecto.create
  • Migrate your database with docker-compose run web mix ecto.migrate
  • Install Node.js dependencies with docker-compose run web bash -c "cd assets; npm install"
  • Start the application with docker-compose up

Setup testing environment

This step assumes you already followed instructions from previous paragraph.

  • Create your testing database with docker-compose run web env MIX_ENV=test mix ecto.create
  • Migrate your testing database with docker-compose run web env MIX_ENV=test mix ecto.migrate
  • Run the test suite with docker-compose run web mix test
