This repository contains a basic Flask application and the related Docker files for running Flask in a container, as well as any other requirements that can be specified in requirements.txt
To get started, clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/rsdoherty/docker-flask
cd into the cloned folder, and start the container:
docker-compose up --build
You can then browse to http://localhost:8888 in your browser, and the below should be returned:
{
"Hello,": "world"
}
In docker-compose.yml, we are mounting the current directory to /app in the container. We're also using Flask in debug mode, which causes it to auto-reload when it detects a file has changed for faster development. Do not enable debug mode in production!
