docker-compose + django + redis-错误111连接到127.0.0.1:6379。 拒绝连接

Question

I've looked through this answer and can't figure out how to apply it to my problem, so if the answer is there, clarification would be appreciated.

I'm also a noob to docker and docker-compose.

I have a simple docker-compose.yml

version: '3'

services:
  redis:
    image: "redis:alpine"
  web:
    build: . # current directory
    command: bash -c "python /app/src/manage.py migrate && 
                      python /app/src/manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000"
    volumes: 
      - .:/app
    ports:
      - "8000:8000"

When I run this with: docker-compose up everything seems ok:

$ docker-compose up

And I can visit my django app through a browser at 127.0.0.0:8000. However, when I try to log in to the app, I get:

ConnectionError at /accounts/login/

Error 111 connecting to 127.0.0.1:6379. Connection refused.

Here's how I'm connecting to redis in my django settings:

REDIS_HOST = os.environ.get('REDIS_HOST', '127.0.0.1')
REDIS_PORT = os.environ.get('REDIS_PORT', '6379')

CACHES = {
    "default": {
        "BACKEND": "django_redis.cache.RedisCache",
        "LOCATION": "redis://{}:{}/1".format(REDIS_HOST, REDIS_PORT),
        "OPTIONS": {
            "CLIENT_CLASS": "django_redis.client.DefaultClient",
        }
    },
    #...
}

How do I get my django app to connect to the redis container?

Note that as far as I can tell, there is nothing else using port 6379 (via sudo lsof -i -P -n | grep LISTEN )

Answer 1

127.0.0.1 in Docker almost always means "this container". If you're running your application under Docker Compose , it

... sets up a single network for your app. Each container for a service joins the default network and is both reachable by other containers on that network, and discoverable by them at a hostname identical to the container name.

That is, within the context of this docker-compose.yml file, there are host names redis and web that point at the two containers.

You've already done one of the important configuration things. When your code says

REDIS_HOST = os.environ.get('REDIS_HOST', '127.0.0.1')

you can set an environment variable that overrides the built-in default value. So here you just need to add an environment variable setting to your docker-compose.yml file:

version: '3'
services:
  redis:
    image: "redis:alpine"
  web:
    build: . # current directory
    environment:
      - REDIS_HOST=redis
    ports:
      - "8000:8000"
    # application source code and default command are built into the image

Answer 2

If you are using docker-compose you need to refer to the name of the container (ie redis) and not localhost. Localhost is per a container and docker-compose will connect each container on a implicit network for which they need to resolve the name. Think of them as separate machines. It helps to get perspective when configuring the networking. So a quick adjustment for which you are trying to connect to redis should fix the problem.

The documentation https://docs.docker.com/compose/networking/ describes how the default network is created when you don't create them yourself explicitly.
