Creating a Dockerfile For Angular Application
By defining a Dockerfile, we will be able to create a docker image for our application.
Create a new file name Dockerfile in the root directory of our angular application.
# Dockerfile
# Stage 1: Build Angular application
FROM node AS builder
WORKDIR /app
COPY package.json package-lock.json ./
RUN npm install
COPY . .
RUN npm run build
# Stage 2: Serve Angular application using nginx
FROM nginx:alpine
COPY --from=builder /app/dist/fresh-app/browser /usr/share/nginx/html
EXPOSE 80
CMD ["nginx", "-g", "daemon off;"]
This image will build our application and serve it using nginx reverse proxy listening at port 80. To create an image from this, we can use the docker cli command,
docker build .
