Asynchronous containers #1

Closed jpbruinsslot closed 8 years ago

jpbruinsslot commented 9 years ago

Because docker compose asynchronously starts the containers, it will happen that the db container isn't ready to accept connections when the app container wants to connect to it. This is reported as a caveat at the official postgres image repo.

At the moment I solved this by using scripts that will check whether the db container is ready to accept connection. However I'd like to use a more elegant solution.

So with the creation of this issue I want to investigate if this is possible and what I can use.

No official response for this?

@omarabid No, unfortunately the docker compose issue concerning this remains open, and the most favourable solution seems to be to create a script that checks whether a container is 'ready'
