Prerequisites

Make sure you have downloaded these prerequisites before we start

How to build

Clone the repository to your local machine

git clone https://github.com/jodeh/Dockerized-Django-Nginx-MYSQL.git
cd Dockerized-Django-Nginx-MYSQL

Before we start to run the containers, we need to make a network to let the containers to connect with each other
```
docker network create --subnet 10.0.0.0/24 custom-network
```

Now lets run our mysql container :

docker run -d --network custom-network --ip 10.0.0.15 --hostname mysql-database -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=password -e MYSQL_DATABASE=djangodb mysql

Build the Django image and run the container

cd /Django
docker build -t django-app .
docker run -d --network custom-network --ip 10.0.0.10 --hostname django django-app

Build the nginx image and run it

cd /nginx
docker build -t nginx-reverse-proxy .
docker run -d --network custom-network --ip 10.0.0.5 -p 80:80 --hostname nginx nginx-reverse-proxy

Create user in mysql .

docker exec -it <mysql container id> bash

$ mysql -p
> CREATE USER 'jodeh'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'jodeh'@'%' WITH GRANT OPTION;
> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Migrate tables to the new database

docker exec -it <django container id> bash
cd ~/mysite
python3 manage.py migrate

Now go back to mysql container to check tables

docker exec -it <mysql container id> bash

$ mysql -p
> SHOW DATABASES;
> USE djangodb;
> SHOW TABLES;

Tables must be shown like this.

Finally Check The Connectivity

Configuration

We can configure django settings by editting ./django/mysite/settings.py file
The proxy pass and the server name can be configured by editting ./etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf file
