Awesome-Cats Backend

Instructions to build to Docker image

1. Clone repo

git clone https://github.com/beknazar001/backend-awesome-cats.git
cd backend-awesome-cats

2. Build a docker image with the tag name 'backend'

docker build -t backend .

3. Create a new repo in Docker Hub and Login to docker from CLI

docker login

4. Change docker image tag

docker tag frontend <docker-username>/<repo-name>
# If you'd like to add tag you can run
docker tag frontend <docker-username>/<repo-name>:tagname

4. Push your image to Docker Hub

docker push <docker-username>/<repo-name>:

After completing all of those steps above you would have a built docker image that you can use further as the usual docker image

#NOTE: If you'd like to run this backend application as a docker container, then you need to specify environment variables  such as *_PGHOST, PGUSER, PGDATABASE, PGPASSWORD_* to connect to the PostgreSQL database.

# If you are going to use Kubernetes, then specify those values in the pod manifest file. Otherwise, your backend service won't be able to connect to a database

"Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts."
