Strapi Docker

Overview

Strapi is an open-source Content Management Framework that simplifies the creation of APIs. It allows users to quickly build powerful and secure API projects with ease. The Strapi framework offers containerized images, specifically strapi/strapi and strapi/base, for creating new projects or running existing ones on a host machine.

Features

• Containerized Images: Strapi provides two containerized images, strapi/strapi and strapi/base, that allow users to create new projects or run existing ones on a host machine.
• Easy Project Creation: The strapi/strapi image enables users to create a new Strapi project by running a simple command. The project is automatically created with a SQLite database and starts on port 1337.
• Database Configurations: Users can pass database configurations, such as database client, host, port, name, username, password, and SSL, while creating a new project using environment variables.
• Running Projects on Host Machine: The strapi/strapi image can also be used to run existing projects on a host machine. By deleting the node_modules folder and running a command, the dependencies will be installed and the project will be started.
• Environment Variables: Users can set environment variables with the -e option while running the container. This allows for easy configuration of database settings or other variables within the project.
