Flask Docker

🐍🐳 A simple repo to demonstrate how to dockerize a Flask application.

Requirements

• Docker

Building the image

1. Clone the repository.

$ git clone https://github.com/jezeniel/flask-docker

2. Change the directory.

$ cd flask-docker

3. Run the docker build command.

$ docker build -t flask-docker:latest .

• -t is the tag of the build, you can change this whatever you want.

Running the image

1. To run the image you built:

$ docker run --rm -p 8000:5000 flask-docker:latest

• --rm flag will delete the running container when the container is stopped.
• -p 8000:5000 param is used to publish the port 8000 to the host machine.
  • the format is <host-port>:<container-port>

2. You can now visit in http://127.0.0.1:8000/ to see your app.
