How to dockerize my dotnet core + postgresql app? - postgresql

Question

I have a dotnet core application created with Angular template that communicates with a postgresql database.
On my local machine, I run the following command on my terminal to run the database container:
docker run -p 5432:5432 --name accman-postgresql -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=mypass -d -v 'accman-postgresql-volume:/var/lib/postgresql/data' postgres:10.4
And then by pressing F5 in VsCode, I see that my application works great.
To dockerise my application, I added this file to the root of my application.
Dockerfile:
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/sdk:2.2 AS build-env
# install nodejs for angular, webpack middleware
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get -f install
RUN apt-get install -y wget
RUN wget -qO- https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_11.x | bash -
RUN apt-get install -y build-essential nodejs
WORKDIR /app
# Copy csproj and restore as distinct layers
COPY *.csproj ./
RUN dotnet restore
# Copy everything else and build
COPY . ./
RUN dotnet publish -c Release -o out
# Build runtime image
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/aspnet:2.2
WORKDIR /app
COPY --from=build-env /app/out .
ENTRYPOINT ["dotnet", "Web.dll"]
Now I think I have to create a docker-compose file. Would you please help me on creating my docker-compose.yml file?
Thanks,

Answer 1

I figured it out, here is my final version of docker-compose.yml file:
version: '3'
services:
web:
container_name: 'accman-web-app'
image: 'accman-web'
build:
context: .
dockerfile: Dockerfile
ports:
- '8090:80'
depends_on:
- 'postgres'
networks:
- accman-network
postgres:
ports:
- '5432:5432'
container_name: accman-postgresql
environment:
- POSTGRES_PASSWORD=mypass
volumes:
- 'accman-postgresql-volume:/var/lib/postgresql/data'
image: 'postgres:10.4'
networks:
- accman-network
volumes:
accman-postgresql-volume:
networks:
accman-network:
driver: bridge
You can use composerize to find out how you can add services to your docker-compose file.
Now you can run these following commands consecutively:
docker-compose build
docker-compose up
And voila!
