Docker NGINX - NextJS - Express

Getting Started

Make sure you have Docker installed on your computer. You have to run the Express (API) & NextJS (blog) services first:

$ docker-compose up api blog

then, you have to run the nginx service in the new terminal

$ docker-compose up nginx

After all of the service running, you can open localhost:8080 in the browser to open the NextJS blog. But you may found an error. Your task is fixing the error by modifying nginx config (nginx/default.conf). You may need to restart nginx everytime you make changes on nginx config, so you have to running a shell on nginx container. To achieve that, you can type in the new terminal:

$ docker-compose exec nginx sh

Please refer to nginx presentation or the video about how to test the config file (make sure it doesn't error) and reload the nginx.

You have a restriction to NOT modify the api service (we can assume this is backend which out of our control).

Required functionality:

• Open the home page which has list of blog title
• Open the post detail page

Stop the services

To stop all the running containers, you can run:

$ docker-compose down
