# Docker ## Prerequisites You have created a `docker-compose.override.yml` file in the root directory of this repository. ## Docker Network If you want to run the stack in a docker network, you need to change the `BACKEND_HOST` variable in the root `.env` file to `stockhome-backend`. To add a docker network, create a `docker-compose.override.yml` file in the root directory of this repository with the following content: ```yaml services: database: networks: - stockhome-network backend: networks: - stockhome-network frontend: networks: - stockhome-network networks: stockhome-network: driver: bridge ``` To start off I recommend to set the `BACKEND_HOST` variable to `localhost` and start the stack without a docker network. After you have started the stack and everything is working, you can add a docker network. ## Ports ### Change Exposed Ports If you want to change the exposed ports, you can do this in the `docker-compose.yml` file like so: ```yaml services: database: ports: - "3306:3306" backend: ports: - "8004:8004" frontend: ports: - "80:80" ``` ### Remove Exposed Ports If you want to remove the exposed ports, you can do this in the `docker-compose.override.yml` file like so: ```yaml services: database: ports: !override [] backend: ports: !override [] frontend: ports: !override [] ```
