A docker based development environment for developing hapijs applications in typescript

• develop in a near-production environment
• source code should be on the host, but run in container
• project dependencies (i.e: node_modules) should be only in container and not in host

1 - Clone hapidock repository

git clone https://github.com/jjude/hapidock

2 - Enter the hapidock directory and bring up the container

docker-compose up

When you execute this for the first time, it will download the needed components (alpine, node, npm, hapijs etc) and build the container. Once built it will bring up the container and execute the npm start command.

When you run docker-compose up next time, it will be faster, because everything is already downloaded.

3 - Now go to https://localhost:3000 on your host and enjoy

It also builds postgresql & pgadmin automatically. Use these parameters to connect to pg from pgadmin: username: postgres; db: postgres; password: secret. You need the hostname. Hostname is pg (the service name in docker-compose)
