How to access running applications?

[beauremus]

I have successfully installed and am running using docker-compose -f docker-compose-prod-with-demoioc.yml up --build but it doesn't appear that this compose file exposes any ports to the host machine. What is the intent here? It looks like the dev version exposes port, but I'd like to understand what the use of the production version is. Thanks.

Hi @beauremus, the production version is served through nginx. You'll see the default port (if not specified) is 5000.

I understand that the default port is 5000. I tried it on my host machine and it didn't work. I double-checked just now in case I missed something the first time. Port 5000 needs to be exposed to the host, no?

The port is exposed - see here

Also the network mode is set to host so port mapping is irrelevant.

Can you post your .env file configuration - maybe I'm missing something

I've found some more evidence that this isn't working as expected. I'm investigating how to make this work.

Forget my previous post. Because this is configured for host network I don't think a port needs to be bound.
