REFERENCE: https://mherman.org/blog/dockerizing-a-react-app/
1. This recipe really run well, so.
Installing scaffolding tools from react script over npm.
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react$ npm install create-react-app
2. Creating a default app, ( scaffolding ) frontend in this case.
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react$ npx create-react-app frontend
3. Looking what files were created.
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react$ cd frontend/
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react/frontend$ ls
Dockerfile node_modules package.json public README.md src yarn.lock
4. Create the docker file, from the tutorial reference.
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react/frontend$ cat Dockerfile
# base image
FROM node
# set working directory
RUN mkdir /usr/src/app
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
# add `/usr/src/app/node_modules/.bin` to $PATH
ENV PATH /usr/src/app/node_modules/.bin:$PATH
# install and cache app dependencies
COPY package.json /usr/src/app/package.json
RUN npm install --silent
RUN npm install react-scripts@1.1.1 -g --silent
# start app
CMD ["npm", "start"]
5. There are some files that can be excluded from de docker image.
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react/frontend$ cat .dockerignore
node_modules
6. Building the docker image for initial react development.
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react/frontend$ docker build -t react-docker .
7. Running the docker image in port 3000, exported and binded with the localhost port.
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react/frontend$ docker run -it -v ${PWD}:/usr/src/app -v /usr/src/app/node_modules -p 3000:3000 --rm react-docker
http://localhost:3000/
8. Using docker compose.
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react_initial/frontend$ cat docker-compose.yml
version: '3.5'
services:
react-docker:
container_name: react-docker
build:
context: .
dockerfile: Dockerfile
volumes:
- '.:/usr/src/app'
- '/usr/src/app/node_modules'
ports:
- '3000:3000'
environment:
- NODE_ENV=development
9. Running docker compose
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react/frontend$ docker-compose up
10. Ckecking if it is running (manually).
http://localhost:3000/
11. Running the visual code editor, for runtime development.
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react$ ls
frontend node_modules package.json package-lock.json
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react$ code .
12. And now!, It's running OK, pushing to the repository, on bitbucket.org with mercurial.
educacion@educacion:~/src$ hg clone https://bitbucket.org/maximilianou/docker13react_initial
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react_initial$ cp -R ../docker13react/* .
13. Adding new files to the repository
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react_initial$ hg add .
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react_initial$ hg commit -u maximilianou@gmail.com -m 'initial react docker development environment'
14. Updating the repository, with push.
educacion@educacion:~/src/docker13react_initial$ hg push
