docker-python-flask

My suggestion of a Production Ready Docker image for a Python / Flask application.

The image will be:

Small: around 50MB
For production: no debugging servers involved
Unique: one source code and one image for all environments
More secure: developers don't know production's credentials
Clean: source code includes only one extra file (Dockerfile)

Why is this image smaller than others?

Based on Alipine image
Cleanes the system after apk add commands
Uses Alpine uwsgi package
Doesn't use Supervisord. It uses a bash's job as described here

Environment variables

This demo uses a config setting named "MY_MODULE.name". To override it, you should provide an environment variable called "MODULE_NAME". For example:

docker run -e MODULE_NAME=my_name ...

Special thanks

I was able to create this image because I've learned from:
