Underlying docker container listening on port 3000. It’s important to note that whilst our Node.js application may be listeningįor requests on port 3000 within the code, by specifying -p 9000:3000 weĮssentially map any requests to port 9000 from our host machine to the Run in the background on our host machine. Wish to run this in a detached mode which means that the docker container will This will start up a Docker container based off our node-docker docker imageĪnd expose it on port 9000 on our machine. > docker run - d - p 9000 : 3000 node - docker Now that we have defined our Dockerfile within our application’s directory, weĬan go about building our Docker image.
This may not take a lot of time for this particular project, butįor larger projects, this can become a massive time drain. Time we build our Docker image, it doesn’t constantly have to reinstall all ourĭependencies.
#Nodejs dockerfile install
It this way, we can cache the results of our npm install command so that every Reason for this is to reduce the time taken for us to continually rebuild ourĭocker automatically caches the results of each individual command so that theyĭon’t have to be fully run each time you wish to build a Docker image. Now, we’ve done two distinct COPY commands within our Dockerfile, and the app # We start our application by calling # npm start. FROM node:9-slim # WORKDIR specifies the directory our # application's code will live within WORKDIR /app # We copy our package.json file to our # app directory COPY package.json /app # We then run npm install to install # express for our application RUN npm install # We then copy the rest of our application # to the app direcoty COPY.
