meural/python repository overview

⁠Docker Containers

This repo stores the build instructions for generic or base-level containers. To make changes, commit changes to master. Dockerhub⁠ will detect the changes, build, and host the new containers. This is convient but dangerous. Make sure that everything is right before pushing to master. An error in these files will cause deployment of every Meural property to fail.

⁠Python

Available at: meural/python

Tags: meural/python:2-imaging, meural/python:3

This container builds the base-image for the Meural's API to run in. It builds on python:2-slim-stretch and adds needed system-level libraries such as ffmpeg and imagemagick.

⁠Usage

This container is used in the api repo to build Meural's API application. See the django/Dockerfile or .circleci/config.yml to see how it is actually used.

⁠Nginx

Available at: meural/nginx

Tags: meural/nginx:latest
