Docker Nginx

The customized Nginx container used for local (pre-production) development.

Services exposed outside your environment

You can access your application via localhost, if you're running the containers directly. Nginx will respond to any hostname, in case you want to add your own hostname on your /etc/hosts

Service	Address outside containers
Webserver	localhost:8000

Docker compose cheatsheet

Note: you need to cd first to where your docker-compose.yml file lives.

• Start containers in the background: docker-compose up -d
• Start containers on the foreground: docker-compose up. You will see a stream of logs for every container running.
• Stop containers: docker-compose stop
• Kill containers: docker-compose kill
• View container logs: docker-compose logs
• Execute command inside of container: docker-compose exec SERVICE_NAME COMMAND where COMMAND is whatever you want to run. All project files are found in the /var/www/html folder in the container.
