This is a base template for a Docker microservice using djangorestframework. It includes a basic user model with authentication using JWT.
For a pre-built container, you can use:
docker run -d dansackett/djangorestframework-base:1.0
This is built as a starting point though for building a full REST API. You can fork this repository and use it to hit the ground running.
I'm using HTTPie in the following examples. When you run your container, you will need to first find the container ID.
docker ps
Grab the container ID and use it to find the IP address to interact with:
docker inspect --format '{{ .NetworkSettings.IPAddress }}' <CONTAINER ID>
Once we have that then we can make requests to the API:
http GET http://<IP ADDRESS>:8000/api/v1/users/
This should return a response. The following endpoints are provided out of the box:
| Endpoint | Verb | Result |
|---|---|---|
| /api/v1/users/ | GET | User List |
| /api/v1/users/ | POST | Create a new User |
| /api/v1/users/{pk}/ | GET | User Detail |
| /api/v1/users/{pk}/ | PUT | Update an user |
| /api/v1/users/{pk}/ | PATCH | Partially Update an User |
| /api/v1/users/{pk}/ | DELETE | Delete an User |
| /api/v1/auth/login/ | POST | Get a new JWT token based on email and password |
As of now, there isn't a persistence with the database used. I will need to look into how to handle a dynamic DB with the container since it will likely be another microservice.
