Dckerize

Overview

DckerizeGem offers a powerful solution for developers looking to enhance their Rails applications by leveraging the efficiency of Docker. By providing a structured environment that simplifies the containerization process, this gem is ideal for those using Rails 5. It streamlines the setup, enabling you to focus more on development and less on configuration hassles. The combination of an nginx/passenger environment and PostgreSQL support ensures that your Rails app runs smoothly with minimal effort.

Features

• Nginx/Passenger Environment: Set up a robust web server for your application with all necessary configurations easily managed in a containerized setup.
• Live Code Reloading: The gem allows you to mount your application directly into the container, meaning changes you make in development are immediately reflected without needing to rebuild the image.
• PostgreSQL Container: DckerizeGem includes a separate container specifically for PostgreSQL, ensuring your database management is isolated and efficient.
• Data-only Container Pattern: This feature allows for better data management by separating your application logic from data storage, increasing maintainability.
• Simple Database Configuration: Easily configure your database credentials using the docker compose file, allowing Dckerize to handle the setup of your database host and user names automatically.
• Quick Startup: With just a few commands, you can get your dockerized Rails application running on your local machine, saving you precious development time.
• Community Contribution: The gem encourages contributions, making it a collaborative effort that continually improves with community input.
