Python Web App
 | 
						|
==============
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. include:: example_header.inc
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The goal of this example is to show you how you can author your own
 | 
						|
Docker images using a parent image, making changes to it, and then
 | 
						|
saving the results as a new image. We will do that by making a simple
 | 
						|
hello Flask web application image.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
**Steps:**
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    sudo docker pull shykes/pybuilder
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
We are downloading the ``shykes/pybuilder`` Docker image
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    URL=http://github.com/shykes/helloflask/archive/master.tar.gz
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
We set a ``URL`` variable that points to a tarball of a simple helloflask web app
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    BUILD_JOB=$(sudo docker run -d -t shykes/pybuilder:latest /usr/local/bin/buildapp $URL)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Inside of the ``shykes/pybuilder`` image there is a command called
 | 
						|
``buildapp``, we are running that command and passing the ``$URL`` variable
 | 
						|
from step 2 to it, and running the whole thing inside of a new
 | 
						|
container. The ``BUILD_JOB`` environment variable will be set with the new container ID.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    sudo docker attach -sig-proxy=false $BUILD_JOB
 | 
						|
    [...]
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
While this container is running, we can attach to the new container to
 | 
						|
see what is going on. The flag ``-sig-proxy`` set as ``false`` allows you to connect and
 | 
						|
disconnect (Ctrl-C) to it without stopping the container.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    sudo docker ps -a
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
List all Docker containers. If this container has already finished
 | 
						|
running, it will still be listed here.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    BUILD_IMG=$(sudo docker commit $BUILD_JOB _/builds/github.com/shykes/helloflask/master)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Save the changes we just made in the container to a new image called
 | 
						|
``_/builds/github.com/hykes/helloflask/master`` and save the image ID in
 | 
						|
the ``BUILD_IMG`` variable name.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    WEB_WORKER=$(sudo docker run -d -p 5000 $BUILD_IMG /usr/local/bin/runapp)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- **"docker run -d "** run a command in a new container. We pass "-d"
 | 
						|
  so it runs as a daemon.
 | 
						|
- **"-p 5000"** the web app is going to listen on this port, so it
 | 
						|
  must be mapped from the container to the host system.
 | 
						|
- **"$BUILD_IMG"** is the image we want to run the command inside of.
 | 
						|
- **/usr/local/bin/runapp** is the command which starts the web app.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Use the new image we just created and create a new container with
 | 
						|
network port 5000, and return the container ID and store in the
 | 
						|
``WEB_WORKER`` variable.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    sudo docker logs $WEB_WORKER
 | 
						|
     * Running on http://0.0.0.0:5000/
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
View the logs for the new container using the ``WEB_WORKER`` variable, and
 | 
						|
if everything worked as planned you should see the line ``Running on
 | 
						|
http://0.0.0.0:5000/`` in the log output.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    WEB_PORT=$(sudo docker port $WEB_WORKER 5000 | awk -F: '{ print $2 }')
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Look up the public-facing port which is NAT-ed. Find the private port
 | 
						|
used by the container and store it inside of the ``WEB_PORT`` variable.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    # install curl if necessary, then ...
 | 
						|
    curl http://127.0.0.1:$WEB_PORT
 | 
						|
      Hello world!
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Access the web app using the ``curl`` binary. If everything worked as planned you
 | 
						|
should see the line ``Hello world!`` inside of your console.
 | 
						|
