Set up a docker container for our application, using a Dockerfile and make sure the container can properly run the application:
Dockerfile should look something like this:
# Use an official Python runtime as the base image
FROM python:3.8-slim
# Set the working directory in the container
WORKDIR /app
# Copy the current directory contents into the container
COPY . .
# Install any dependencies
RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt
# Make port 8080 available
EXPOSE 8080
# Define environment variable for the port (optional)
ENV PORT 8080
# Run the application
CMD ["flask", "--app", "run_app.py", "run", "--host=0.0.0.0", "--port=8080"]
