Unable to make a Websockets connection when running on Docker but able to do so when running locally.

[somduttasinha]

I am using React and Typescript for my client. I am unable to create a WebSocket connection using new WebSocket(ws:/api-gateway/8002) when running on a Docker container, however when I run this on my local machine (using new WebSocket(ws:/localhost/8002)), the connection works. Furthermore, when running the project on Docker, I am able to use a test websockets client (wscat) to connect to the server from the client environment, demonstrating that the hostname api-gateway should be able to be recognised by the client. I have no idea how to troubleshoot this error. Any help is much appreciated!

Heya 👋🏻

Sorry you didn't get a response on this one in a long time. If you have general coding questions, you can try Stack Overflow or other forums that can help you troubleshoot. I'm going to close this one for now. Thank you :)
