Investigate whether nestrischamps can be run locally with docker #86

Open timotheeg opened 3 years ago

Can we have a docker container to run the nodejs app, and docker-compose to depend on postgres DB?

Advantages:

Make local install painless to run
Enable docker-deployment to cloud providers that support it

I'm working on this, and getting some experience with docker btw... I've been able to run nestrischamps in a container, now i'm going for docker-compose and the DB side

I guess the .env file in nestrischamps is a caveat, for twitch id and secret and all of that

Thanks @TheRealTomelloSoulMan! With docker, all environment variables should be declared in the container definition, the .env file should not be needed with docker I reckon.

Well, I've done a preliminary test and all seems to work, except for old games management which gives "internal server error". I'll give you more details in Discord as it lets me attach some files
