react app

Messing around with Docker.

This project works with docker to test, build and start a simple react app and also uses Jenkins to auto deploy.

2. npm install -g create-react-app (optional: npm install -g react-scripts)
3. create-react-app frontend
4. cd frontend
5. npm [run] test
6. npm run build
7. npm [run] start (dev)
8. docker build [-t USER/IMAGE_NAME:TAG] -f Dockerfile.dev .
9. rm -rf node_modules # created by npm run build, not needed because # will be created with RUN npm install in Dockerfile
10. docker build [-t USER/IMAGE_NAME:TAG] -f Dockerfile.dev .
11. docker run
    -v /var/local/app/node_modules \ # don't map volume, use container's -v $(pwd):/var/local/app \ # map server volume to container's -p 8083:3000 IMAGE
