App couldn't connect to Postgresql Database with docker-compose - postgresql

Question

I'm trying to get my web application running using docker-compose.
My Dockerfile
FROM golang:1.15
WORKDIR /goprojects/vnlist
COPY . .
RUN go get github.com/revel/revel
RUN go get github.com/revel/cmd/revel
RUN go get -d -v ./...
EXPOSE 9000
CMD [ "revel", "run", "-a", "vnlist" ]
My docker-compose.yml
version: '3.3'
services:
web:
build: .
ports:
- "9000:9000"
db:
image: "postgres"
environment:
POSTGRES_USER: "postgres"
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: "postgresql123"
POSTGRES_DB: "vnlist_db"
volumes:
- db-data:/foo
volumes:
db-data:
The DBsetup file
package models
import (
"fmt"
"gorm.io/driver/postgres"
"gorm.io/gorm"
)
var DB *gorm.DB
var (
DB_HOST = "localhost"
DB_PORT = "5432"
DB_USER = "postgres"
DB_PASSWORD = "postgresql123"
DB_NAME = "vnlist_db"
DB_TIMEZONE = "Asia/Jakarta"
)
func InitDB() {
dsn := fmt.Sprintf("host=%s port=%s user=%s password=%s dbname=%s sslmode=disable",
DB_HOST, DB_PORT, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME)
db, err := gorm.Open(postgres.Open(dsn), &gorm.Config{})
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("DB Error: ", err)
}
db.AutoMigrate(&VN{}, &User{})
DB = db
}
And then, I ran docker-compose up --build. Here's the result of the command:

As we can see on the last few lines, the database failed to connect.
I've tried to change the DB's credential but the problem persists.
My question is, how to fix this?

Answer 1

Your DB_HOST would be the name of the database service DB_HOST = "db" instead of "localhost"
