This small project demos use of the Flask framework with Jinja2 templates together with Docker / docker-compose for web development. It uses Gunicorn as an application server and NGINX as a proxy. Files are mounted in the container and both templates and the app.py will be reloaded automatically within the container when changed locally.
# git clone https://github.com/Kungbib/flask-docker-example
# cd flask-docker-example
The following will build and deploy the container locally.
# docker-compose up
Add the -d parameter to run in background.
Test that the container is running by executing docker-compose ps. Check output logs with docker-compose logs. To continually monitor output run docker-compose logs --tail 100 -f.
Go to http://localhost:8080/ or run curl http://localhost:8080. To test the template engine add parameter use_template to the URL.
