wow73611/python-rt repository overview

⁠wow73611/python-rt

wow73611/python-rt⁠ is a docker⁠ base image that makes it easy to dockerize a standard Python application.

It can automatically bundle a Python application and its dependencies with a single line Dockerfile.

It is based on wow73611/python⁠ base image.

⁠Usage

• Create a Dockerfile in your python application directory with the following content:

    FROM wow73611/python-rt
  

  Copy

• Run the following command in your application directory:

    docker build -t my/app .
  

  Copy

⁠Notes

The image assumes that your application:

• has a requirements.txt⁠ file to specify its dependencies
• listens on port 8080
• has a main.py script as entrypoint
• or defines ENTRYPOINT ["/env/bin/python", "/app/other.py"] in its Dockerfile

When building your application docker image, ONBUILD triggers:

• Create a new virtualenv under the /env directory in the container
• Fetch the dependencies listed in requirements.txt into the virtualenv using pip install and leverage docker caching appropriately
• Copy the application sources under the /app directory in the container

This project heavily borrowed code from Google's google/python-runtime Docker image.
