Docker Compose is a tool that you will use to define and share multi-container applications. This means you can run a project with multiple containers using a single source, you will need to create a YAML file to define the services you need and run with a single command.
docker-compose.yml
services:
simplecore.api:
container_name: simplecoreapi.from.docker.composed
#image: bindplus.api.v2 # will use image
image: ${DOCKER_REGISTRY-}simplecoreapi:1.0.0 # will use Dockerfile
build:
context: . # ASP-NET-Core-Simple-API replace with the actual name of your project, docker file location
dockerfile: ASP-NET-Core-Simple-API/Dockerfile
ports:
- 49195:80 #[targer port]:[docker file port]
The docker-compose.override.yml is the configuration file where you can override existing settings from the docker-compose.yml or can even add completely new services.
docker-compose.override.yml
services:
simplecore.api:
environment:
- ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT=Development
- LogJson__Path=Payload
volumes:
- /tmp/Payload:/app/Payload # [Local path]:[container path]
