Docker Compose

Docker Compose is a tool for defining and running multi-container Docker applications. It allows you to use a YAML file to configure your application's services, networks, and volumes, and then spin up all the containers required to run your application with a single command.

Add compose/docker-compose.yml:

services:
  lr-webchat-go:
    build:
      context: ../
      dockerfile: Dockerfile
    ports:
      - 4000:4000
    environment:
      - PORT=4000
  lr-webchat-react:
    build:
      context: ../../lr_webchat
      dockerfile: Dockerfile
    ports:
      - 3000:3000
    depends_on:
      lr-webchat-go:
        condition: service_started

Run it:

cd compose
docker compose up

You should see something like this:
