XYZ Docker NodeJS

This image is a default docker image for NodeJS.

Local development

Just run the following commands

npm install
node server/server.js

You should now see a statically served index.html file if you go to http://localhost:9000

Testing for live deploy

Before deploying your code you can test it with a local docker installation by running the following commands

Build:

docker build -t my-nodejs-app .

Run:

docker run -p 9000:9000 -it --rm --name my-running-app my-nodejs-app

In this case we run the application at port 9000 so don't forget to expose port 9000 in VirtualBox Manager.
