Full portuguese tutorial is here: https://youtu.be/Sa74-4ExZ4Q

In your local host machine add the following lines to your /etc/hosts file in order to find the application.

127.0.0.1   www.nodejs.dvp

Build your custom Docker Image running ./docker/build.sh

docker-compose up: Standalone execution docker-compose up -d: Daemon mode execution

Open http://www.nodejs.dvp/ and check the headers on your devtools, and you should see this entry Server: nginx.

The most important scripts are:

• docker/nginx/Dockerfile: This is the file that compiles the Docker Image. Here you can find the packages installed on Linux to make this experiment work.
• docker/nginx/start.sh: This is the startup script what is executed when the container is activated.
• docker/apply-config.sh: Just a shortcut to apply your changes on NGinx config files. You should run this shell script from inside your container.
• docker/nginx/ssh.sh: Easy way to into your container instance using SSH. This allows you to execute tests and apply your configuration experiments.
• pm2/pm2-development.json: PM2 profile file. This files contains the information needed by PM2 to run your API as a service and keep it running in case of crash.
• config/nginx: Where all NGinx config files resides and can be edited as your will.
