uwsgi-nginx-flask

This Docker image allows you to create Flask web applications in Python that run with uWSGI and Nginx in a single container. The combination of uWSGI with Nginx is a common way to deploy Python Flask web applications. It is widely used in the industry and would give you decent performance.

Usage Notes

You may follow the instructions to build your project from scratch:

• Go to your project directory
• Create a Dockerfile with:

  FROM icr.io/ibmz/uwsgi-nginx-flask:[tag]
  COPY ./app /app

  
  
• Create an app directory and navigate to it
• Create a main.py file (it should be named like that and should be in your app directory) with:

  from flask import Flask
  app = Flask(__name__)
  
  @app.route("/")
  def hello():
      return "Hello World from Flask"
  
  if __name__ == "__main__":
      # Only for debugging while developing
      app.run(host='0.0.0.0', debug=True, port=80)
        

  
  
• Go to the project directory (where your Dockerfile is, containing your app directory)
• Build your Flask image:

  docker build -t myimage .

  
  
• Run a container based on your image:

  docker run -d --name mycontainer -p 8080:80 myimage

  
  

The application should now be accesssible at port 8080 of the your ZCX systems IP.
