Simplified Dockerization with Docker INIT Command

Introduction of Docker INIT is transforming the way we approach containerizing our applications.

Simplified Dockerization with Docker INIT Command

By leveraging docker init, we effortlessly generate critical files like Dockerfile, compose.yml, and .dockerignore.

With a single command and a series of user-friendly prompts, Docker now automates the setup of these essential files. This innovative approach ensures the seamless adoption of industry-standard practices.

Here's a example of a FastAPI Application with docker init

  • Create a main.py file.

      from fastapi import FastAPI
    
      app = FastAPI()
    
      @app.get("/")
      def read_root():
          return {"message": "Hello, World!"}
    
  • Create requirements.txt that all required packages.

  • Run the docker init command and choose the language for your project.

  • Run the Application using docker build command

      docker compose up --build
    

  • Access the Application on port 8000
