Using docker and docker-compose for local development

docker-compose build
docker-compose run app python manage.py migrate
docker-compose up

A server will now be running at http://localhost:8000.

You will need to docker-compose build whenever requirements.txt changes since the dependencies are installed in the docker image (see Dockerfile).

Note that in docker-compose.yml, app is the name of the service for the Django application, and db is the name of the database service. You can run any command within those service containers using docker-compose run <SERVICE NAME> <COMMAND>.

For example:

  • docker-compose run app py.test will run the test suite.
  • docker-compose run db bash will get you a shell in the db container.
