Docker image

[rxmxn]

Create docker image to run the app and put it in the raspi and leave it running. This image needs to communicate with the MongoDB database running in the server to be able to fetch and update the tables.

• [ ] There is a dockerfile in which the app can be ran.
• [ ] Each image can access MongoDB in the server.
• [ ] The server needs to run in the background (make it a service or a daemon?).

Maybe by not specifying the host I can make access to it by the IP of the container it's running on I can use docker compouse to create all the images and make them communicate with each other I could also point the docker host to the raspi and run the docker commands from local.
