How to run this project?

Inside docker container (recommended)

1. edit mode.env set NODE_ENV=production for production use or NODE_ENV=dev for development use
2. run docker-compose up
3. access your project on http://localhost:80 in production use, http://localhost:8080 in development use

Without docker

# For development
$ node index.js

# For production
$ webpack
$ NODE_ENV=production node index.js

Useful tips:

• get inside running container use $docker exec -it <container_name> /bin/bash
• delete all inactive containers use docker container rm `docker ps -aq -f status=exited`
• on windows there can be problem with file path, especially with :, set this enviroment variable COMPOSE_CONVERT_WINDOWS_PATHS=1 to fix the problem
• list all images docker images -a
• list all containers docker ps -a
• list all volumes docker volume list

Usage without docker-compose, just docker:

This runs application in production mode, which can be accesses on http://localhost:80
