bookChallenge 2: Docker and Flask

Task

  • Clone and open the project from the repository;
  • Fill in all '___' gaps in code (in Dockerfile).
    • Use the base Python image version 3.9 "slim" (python:3.9-slim) as it has a smaller footprint, ideal for containers.
    • Set the working directory to /flask-app, where our Flask application will reside.
    • Copy all files from the current directory into the container's working directory.

To check the task, run the command below:

If the command above doesn't work, try inputting this python3 tests/run.py.

  • Build the container:
  • Launch the container (use this command docker run -p 5000:5000 <image_name> ).

Everything was clear?

How can we improve it?

Thanks for your feedback!
