https://github.com/dockerfiles/django-uwsgi-nginx, change Django to Flask.
Just forked fromFlask, uWSGI and Nginx in a container
This Dockerfile allows you to build a Docker container with a fairly standard and speedy setup for Flask with uWSGI and Nginx.
uWSGI from a number of benchmarks has shown to be the fastest server for python applications and allows lots of flexibility.
Nginx has become the standard for serving up web applications and has the additional benefit that it can talk to uWSGI using the uWSGI protocol, further elinimating overhead.
Most of this setup comes from the excellent tutorial on
https://uwsgi.readthedocs.org/en/latest/tutorials/Django_and_nginx.html
http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/deploying/uwsgi/#configuring-nginx
Feel free to clone this and modify it to your liking. And feel free to contribute patches.
Build and run
- docker build -t webapp .
- docker run -d webapp
How to insert your application
In /app currently a flask project is created with startproject. Yowill probably want to replace the content of /app with the root of your flask project.
uWSGI chdirs to /app so in uwsgi.ini you will need to make sure the python path to the wsgi.py file is relative to that.
