This app is functional but not complete: there are missing feature and the code style is far from perfect.
We chose to use Python and React because these are part of our stack, but you can use anything you want.
This is mostly an example to help you getting started with docker and not spend too much time setting up the base project.
Feel free to use this as baseline for your project, as a reference or discard it completely.
- Make sure to have docker installed beforehand
docker-compose up
# or run in daemon mode
docker-compose up -dThe first run will also build the containers.
After the first run you need to run the first existing migrations
docker-compose run api alembic upgrade headThe API should be available at http://localhost:5000
The UI should be available at http://localhost:3000
The code in API and UI is mounted directly inside the container and the API app is running with auto reloading, meaning you do not need to rebuild the containers if you just modify the code.
If you add libraries to the UI or to the API, you need to rebuild the containers to install them.
This is quite obvious for the API (being a python project) but not for the UI, considering
the node_modules is created inside the container in the same directory where the source code is
but ut is not shared with mounted directory on the host machine.
There are few routes already implemented:
/user/room/room/<room_id>/message
Each allows to crete an object, list all the objects or get a single one.
docker-compose down -vNote: the -v is important because of the named volume defined for the UI project.
