Don't see Django in Docker container

Question

I want to run Django in a simple Docker container.

First I built my container with Docker-file. There wasn\'t anything special in it (only FROM, RUN and COPY commands)

Answer 1

I agree with Niklaus9 comments. If I could suggest an enhancement try

python manage.py runserver [::]:8000 

The difference is that [::] supports ipv6 addresses.

I also noticed some packages for mongodb. If you want to test and dev locally you can create docker containers and use docker compose to test your app on your machine before deploying to dev/stage/prod environment.

You can find out more about how to set up a Django app linked to a database backend in docker on this tutorial http://programmathics.com/programming/docker/docker-compose-for-django/ (Disclaimer: I am the creator of that website)
