Description of the ESBay repository

This repository is intended to serve a starting example to introduce the development of microservices using python and docker.

Start the docker composition

$ docker-compose --verbose up -d

Troubleshooting

If you get the next message when you run the docker-compose command, it means that you have a permission issue.

ERROR: Couldn't connect to Docker daemon at http+docker://localunixsocket - is it running?

If it's at a non-standard location, specify the URL with the DOCKER_HOST environment variable.

To solve the issue you need to execute the next commands:

$ sudo usermod -aG docker $USER && newgrp docker

Try to start the docker composition again and the problem must be solved.

Run the application

Open a web browser in http://localhost:8082/users/hello.

To rebuild the Docker images and recreate the containers

$ docker-compose build

Show the container logs

$ docker logs --tail 50 --follow --timestamps container_name
ex: docker logs --tail 50 --follow --timestamps esbay_user_1

See the list of containers

$ docker ps

Shutdown the containers of this composition

$ docker-compose down
