Docker MERN

This repo aims to create a one-stop script which would allow the setup of a MERN stack via multiple containers reliably.

Requirements

• docker (with external network created)
• docker-compose
• wget

Tested working with Ubuntu 20.04

Setup

$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NanoCode012/docker-mern/main/setup-server.sh -O setup-server.sh
$ chmod +x setup-server.sh
$ ./setup-server.sh

Note: Ignore Git repo not initialized Error: Command failed: git --version when creating base react files

Optional arguments:

• barebone run with default options and without creating react and node files

Usage

Production

$ docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml -f docker-compose.http.yml up -d --build

Add -f docker-compose.ssl.yml for SSL setup and remove -f docker-compose.http.yml.

TIP: Make a bash file that runs the above for you. This functionality will be added later.

Development

$ docker-compose up -d --build

Configuration

• For more docker-configuration, consider creating a new compose file with the changes and adding it via -f option

Script Development/Test

Pass in environment variable BRANCH=the_branch_name before calling script, so that the script knows where to wget the files.
