Example Dockerized Python API

Just a personal reference for Dockerizing a simple python application.

Setup

Run app locally

python3 -m venv env
source env/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
python app.py

Build Docker image

Quick build (local development)

docker build -t movie-recommender .

Build using GIT_HASH arg (automated builds).

export GIT_HASH=$(git rev-parse HEAD)
docker build --build-arg GIT_HASH=${GIT_HASH::7} -t movie-recommender .

• Uses only first 7 characters of the git hash.

Check git hash.

docker run --rm movie-recommender env | grep GIT_HASH

Run Docker image

docker run --rm -p 8888:8888 movie-recommender python app.py

provide terraform deployment script

add ci\cd pipeline

in the name of practice!

build and test bin scripts

just to speed up dev/test; use bash
