Basic Python Flask app in Docker which prints the hostname and IP of the container
Build the Docker image manually by cloning the Git repo.
$ git clone https://github.com/lvthillo/python-flask-docker.git
$ docker build -t lvthillo/python-flask-docker .
You can also just download the existing image from DockerHub.
docker pull lvthillo/python-flask-docker
Create a container from the image.
$ docker run --name my-container -d -p 8080:8080 lvthillo/python-flask-docker
Now visit https://localhost:8080
The hostname of the container is 6095273a4e9b and its IP is 172.17.0.2.
Verify by checking the container ip and hostname (ID):
$ docker inspect -f '{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' my-container
172.17.0.2
$ docker inspect -f '{{ .Config.Hostname }}' my-container
