ToggleInstalling Docker Desktop π³
In this tutorial, we’re going to dockerize a Next.js application with a MongoDB database. It’s a beginner tutorial that will teach you how to develop and deploy a Next.js application with a database on Docker.
Step 1: Installing Docker Desktop
Step | Description |
---|---|
1 | Go to Docker website |
2 | Select Docker Desktop |
3 | Download based on your operating system |
4 | Install Docker Desktop |
5 | Create a new account |
Cloning the Next.js Application π₯οΈ
The next step is to clone the Next.js application with the MongoDB database repository using the following command in your terminal:
git clone [URL]
Dockerizing the Next.js Application π
Next, we’ll create a Dockerfile and compose.yaml to run the Next.js application and create the MongoDB database.
Dockerfile
FROM node:20-alpine
WORKDIR /app
COPY package.json package-lock.json ./
RUN npm install
COPY . .
EXPOSE 3000
CMD ["npm", "run", "dev"]
Compose.yaml Configuration βοΈ
We’ll now create a compose.yaml file to define services and images for running the Next.js application and MongoDB database.
Compose.yaml Configuration Blocks
Block | Description |
---|---|
Docker Compose Version | Set to 3.8 |
Define Services | Define all services or images |
Docker Ignore Setup π
In the root, create a .dockerignore file to specify the files to be ignored while copying from the host machine to the container machine.
Composing the Docker π
After setting everything up, it’s time to compose the Docker using the following command:
docker-compose up
By following these steps, we successfully created a Docker for a Next.js application with a MongoDB database.
Conclusion
In this tutorial, we’ve learned how to dockerize a Next.js application with a MongoDB database. This will allow you to develop and deploy your applications in a more efficient and scalable way. Happy coding! π
