• +7 -0 docker-compose.yml
• +14 -0 web/Dockerfile
• +6 -0 web/flaskapp.py
• +2 -0 web/requirements.txt

File docker-compose.yml ADDED

This is a minimal Docker Compose file with the default name, just to get running.

• version : Be careful when researching Compose issues to note the version. Many version 2 solutions will not work under version 3.
• services : Each service is a different Docker container
• web : We'll start with a single service called web
• build : The location of this service's Dockerfile - in this case, inside the project's web directory.
• ports : Opens a public port 5000 and connects it to the container port 8000
• command : Launch the application flaskapp:app and tell gunicorn to make it available on port 8000

+version: "3"

+        command: /usr/local/bin/gunicorn -b :8000 flaskapp:app

File web/Dockerfile ADDED

A minimal Docker file.

+# base container image
+FROM python:3.6.1-alpine
+
+# setup working directory within container
+RUN mkdir -p /web
+WORKDIR /web
+
+# copy code from current directory into working directory
+COPY . /web
+
+# setup python environment, import required modules
+RUN pip install --upgrade pip
+RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt

File web/flaskapp.py ADDED

A minimal Flask application.

• Create the application app - referenced by the gunicorn command in docker-compose.yml
• Define the default route / - returns the string 'Hello FlaskApp'

+from flask import Flask
+app = Flask(__name__)
+
[email protected]('/')
+def hello_flaskapp():
+    return 'Hello FlaskApp'

File web/requirements.txt ADDED

Only two packages are required at this stage. During the install, pip will fetch the latest versions.
