⁠ReverseApp Dockerized

ReverseApp is an application made in Java 11 and Spring Boot that is exposed on port 8080 and that I have put inside a Docker container.

It is a web application that when making GET requests to "/" returns a JSON with a message that describes how to use it, request example using curl:

curl -s http://localhost:8080/ | jq '.'

And when making a GET request to "/reverse", and passing a text string in the "text" parameter, it returns a JSON with the same string in reverse , example request using curl:

curl -s http://localhost:8080/reverse?text=Hello%20World | jq '.'

To build the docker image, assuming we are located in the same directory where the Dockerfile is:

docker build -t <image_name>:<tag> .

To run a container and test it:

docker run --rm -d --name -p 8080:8080 <container-name> <image_name>:<tag>
