Sample project with Typescript, Express, TypeORM, PostgreSQL on Docker

Node/Express/Typescript + Postgres + Nginx on Docker

Setting up development environment

• Install Docker
• Install docker-sync by running gem install --user-install docker-sync
• Add export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.gem/ruby/2.3.0/bin line to your local .bashrc or .zshrc configuration
• cp .env.sample .env and fill in values
• Run docker-sync-stack start
• Visit http://localhost:3000/

Alternatively, you can launch development environment without docker-sync by running docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.dev.yml up or docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml up Dev will run tsc in watch mode and Prod will start 2 additional node services load-balanced via nginx

Connect to Node container

Node is running on port 3000. You can connect to the container by running the following command:

docker exec -it node0 bash

PostgreSQL

Default PostgreSQL port is exposed to localhost, so you can connect to it using your favorite database management tool.
