Run the Docker Image Locally

To run the Docker image locally, use the following command:

<<your_cli>> docker run

This will run the app and make it accessible at localhost:8000.

Notice: A hot-reload is enabled, which will rerun the required build commands if you change a file. You can detach and kill the container by pressing Ctrl + C.

Environments

By default we are generating a very simple way of handling different environments. You can change the environments in the commands/docker/environment.dart file.

Build args

You can easily pass arguments to your docker file. To do this you can just pass the build args into the createDockerImage function in the commands/docker/build_image_command.dart file.

Script hashes

By default we are generating script hashes for each script tag in your index.html file. You can change the hashtype or disable it in the commands/docker/build_command.dart file.

CSP Rules

By default we are adding a default Set of CSP rules to the server/bin/middlewares.dart File. You can change the rules or disable them in the commands/docker/build_command.dart file. You can find more informations about CSP Rules here.

Docker Garbage Collection

We are currently collecting all dangling images and containers after the build process to keep your docker environment clean. If you dont want to have this Feature feel free to open an Issue.

Help

If you need help, you can always use the help command.
