I have a web app that uses go language as it's back end. When I run my website I just do go build; ./projectName then it will run on local server port 8000. How do I run this web app on a container? I can run sample images like nginx on a container, but how do I create my own images for my projects. I created a Dockerfile inside my project folder with the following codes:
FROM nginx:latest
WORKDIR static/html/
COPY . /usr/src/app
Then made an image using the Dockerfile, but when I run it on a container and go to localhost:myPort/static/html/page.html it says 404 page not found. My other question is, does docker can only run static pages on a container? cause my site can receive and send data. Thanks
this is my docker file (./todo is my project name and folder name)
this is my terminal ( as you can see the the container exits emmediately)
I guess you are not exposing the Docker Port outside the container.
That's why you are not able to see any output rather than just being specific to GO Program.
Try adding the below lines to your docker compose File
EXPOSE 80(whichever port you want it to be)
EXPOSE 443
EXPOSE 3306
This will make the container be accessed from outside
Here is what i did for my GOlang web app use Gin-gonic framework -
my Dockerfile:
FROM golang:latest
# Author
MAINTAINER dangminhtruong
# Create working folder
RUN mkdir /app
COPY . /app
RUN apt -y update && apt -y install git
RUN go get github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql
RUN go get github.com/gosimple/slug
RUN go get github.com/gin-gonic/gin
RUN go get gopkg.in/russross/blackfriday.v2
RUN go get github.com/gin-gonic/contrib/sessions
WORKDIR /app
Then build docker image
docker build -t web-app:latest .
Finally, start my web-app
docker run -it -p 80:8080 -d web-app:latest go run main.go //My webapp start at 8080 port
Hope this helpfull
You don't need Nginx to run a server in Go
It's better to build a binary in Dockerfile
Here is how your Dockerfile may look like:
FROM golang:latest
RUN mkdir /app
ADD . /app/
WORKDIR /app
RUN go build -o main .
EXPOSE 8000
CMD ["/app/main"]

I am trying to make my application work in a Linux container. It will eventually be deployed to Azure Container Instances. I have absolutely no experience with containers what so ever and I am getting lost in the documentation and examples.
I believe the first thing I need to do is create a Docker image for my project. I have installed Docker Desktop.
My project has this structure:
MyProject
MyProject.Core
MyProject.Api
MyProject.sln
Dockerfile
The contents of my Dockerfile is as follows.
#Use Ubuntu Linux as base
FROM ubuntu:22.10
#Install dotnet6
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y dotnet6
#Install LibreOffice
RUN apt-get -y install default-jre-headless libreoffice
#Copy the source code
WORKDIR /MyProject
COPY . ./
#Compile the application
RUN dotnet publish -c Release -o /compiled
#ENV PORT 80
#Expose port 80
EXPOSE 80
ENTRYPOINT ["dotnet", "/compiled/MyProject.Api.dll"]
#ToDo: Split build and deployment
Now when I try to build the image using command prompt I am using the following command
docker build - < Dockerfile
This all processed okay up until the dotnet publish command where it errors saying
Specify a project or solution file
Now I have verified that this command works fine when run outside of the docker file. I suspect something is wrong with the copy? Again I have tried variations of paths for the WORKDIR, but I just can't figure out what is wrong.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thank you SiHa in the comments for providing a solution.
I made the following change to my docker file.
WORKDIR app
Then I use the following command to build.
docker build -t ImageName -f FileName .
The image now creates successfully. I am able to run this in a container.
I am trying to create a simple docker container with go mod and 1.18.
my app runs in 8080 port but i wanna run in :80 port
Dockerfile
FROM golang:1.18
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
# pre-copy/cache go.mod for pre-downloading dependencies and only redownloading them in subsequent builds if they change
COPY go.mod go.sum ./
RUN go mod download && go mod verify
COPY . .
RUN go build -o server
CMD [ "./server" ]
so i run docker build:
docker build -t go-k8s .
and docker run
docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 go-k8s:latest
And nothing happens :(
As larsks says, you need to bind from the external port 80 to the internal port 8080 using the 80:8080 syntax.
Something else to consider is making sure that your app is listening on all interfaces in your development environment.
This question seems at least vaguely related to yours
So I wrote this Dockerfile:
FROM node:13-alpine as build
WORKDIR /app
COPY package*.json /app/
RUN npm install -g ionic
RUN npm install
COPY ./ /app/
RUN npm run build
FROM nginx:alpine
RUN rm -rf /usr/share/nginx/html/*
COPY --from=build /app/dist/ /usr/share/nginx/html/
When it run the command npm run build it is going to create the Dist folder
the second last line is going to remove the things from the folder nginx/html and than the last line is going to replace this folder with the files from the Dist folder, where is the Index.html.
when i run the code:
docker build -t dashboard-app:v1 . it creates the image
Than i run the code: docker run --name dashboard-app-container -d -p 8080:80 dashboard-app:v1
when i go to localhost:8080 it show " NGINX. If you see this page, the nginx web server is succesfully installed and working. Further coonfig. is required"
I dont know if my problem is that docker is not being able to replace the Dist folder and finding the index html or if is some port problem.
When i run it on localhost:4200 i can see the dashboard app.
Any sugestion???
Thank you in advance
It is certainly hard to know what is your Dist folder containing and what was copied over to the nginx/html/ location.
As long as you get a response on port 8080, it means that nginx is running but is not able to find index.html page in the nginx/html/ folder.
What I suggest doing is to run your Docker image with the following command from a terminal. Notice, the -d is removed, you will be able to see the logs from the container:
docker run --name dashboard-app-container -p 8080:80 dashboard-app:v1
In another terminal connect to the image using the following command:
docker exec -it dashboard-app:v1 sh
This will open a shell to the container. You will have to navigate to /usr/share/nginx/html location and investigate its content. You will be able to see what was copied over from the Dist folder and adjust the Dockerfile aftewards.
I have an Angular - Flask app that I'm trying to dockerize with the following Dockerfile:
FROM node:latest as node
COPY . /APP
COPY package.json /APP/package.json
WORKDIR /APP
RUN npm install
RUN npm install -g #angular/cli#7.3.9
CMD ng build --base-href /static/
FROM python:3.6
WORKDIR /root/
COPY --from=0 /APP/ .
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt
EXPOSE 5000
ENTRYPOINT ["python"]
CMD ["app.py"]
On building the image and running the image, console gives no errors. However, it seems to be stuck. What could be the issue here?
Is it because they are both in different directories?
Since I'm dockerizing Flask as well as Angular, how can I put both in same directory (right now one is in /APP and the other in /root)
OR should I put the two in separate containers and use a docker-compose.yml file?
In that case, how do I write the file? Actually my Flask calls my Angular and both run on same port. So I'm not sure if running in two different containers is a good idea.
I am also providing the commands that I use to build and run the image for reference:
docker image build -t prj .
docker container run --publish 5000:5000 --name prj prj
In the Angular build first stage of the Dockerfile, use RUN instead of CMD.
CMD is for running a command after the final image is built.
I am totally new to docker and the client I am working for have sent me dockerfile configuration .dockerignore file probably to set up the work environment.
So this is basically what he sent to me
FROM node:8
# Create app directory
RUN mkdir -p /usr/src/app
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
COPY package.json package-lock.json ./
RUN npm install
COPY assets ./assets
COPY server ./server
COPY docs ./docs
COPY internals ./internals
COPY track ./track
RUN npm run build:dll
COPY . .
EXPOSE 3000
CMD [ "npm", "start" ]
with docker build and run command (he also provided the same)
docker build -t reponame:tag .
docker run -p 3000:3000 admin-web:v1
Here, First can someone tell me what does copy . . mean?
He asked me to configure all the ports accordingly. From going through videos, I remember that we can map ports like this -p 3000:3000 but what does configuring port means? and how can i do? any relevant article for the same would also be helpful. Do I need to make docker-compose file?
. is current directory in linux. So basicly: copy current local directory to the current container's directory.
The switch -p is used to configure port mapping. -p 2900:3000 means publish your local port 2900 to container's 3000 port so that the container is available on the outside (by your web browser for instance). Without that mapping the port would not be available to access outside the container. This port is still available to other containers inside same docker network though.
You don't need to make a docker-compose.yml file, but it certainly will make your life easier if you have one, because then you can just run docker-compose up every time to run the container instead of having to run
docker run -p 3000:3000 admin-web:v1
every time you want to start your applicaton.
Btw here is one of the ultimate docker cheatsheets that I got from a friend, might help you: https://gist.github.com/ruanbekker/4e8e4ca9b82b103973eaaea4ac81aa5f
