使用 MySQL 容器对 Django 应用程序进行 Dockerize

Question

I have an app developed in Django (2.2.7) with python (3.8.0), Docker (19.03.5) and docker-compose (1.25.2) running in Windows 10 pro. I want to Dockerize it with changing the sqlite3 database for a MySQL database. I've already write this Dockerfile :

FROM python:3.7
ENV PYTHONUNBUFFERED 1
RUN mkdir /code
WORKDIR /code
ADD . /code/
RUN pip install --upgrade pip && pip install -r requirements.txt
RUN pip install mysqlclient
COPY . /code/

And this docker-compose.yml file:

version: '3'

services: 
  db:
    image: mysql:5.7
    ports:
      - '3306:3306'
    environment:
       MYSQL_DATABASE: 'my-app-db'
       MYSQL_USER: 'root'
       MYSQL_PASSWORD: 'password'
       MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: 'password'
    volumes:
      - .setup.sql:/docker-entrypoint-initbd.d/setup.sql

  web:
    build: .
    command: python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
    volumes:
      - .:/code
    ports:
      - "8000:8000"
    depends_on:
      - db
    links: 
      - db 

Also I have change the default database configurations in settings.py for this:

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
        'NAME': 'my-app-db',
        'USER': 'root',
        'PASSWORD': 'password',
        'HOST': 'db',
        'PORT': 3306,
    }
}

After all of this the docker compose works and the app starts, but the problem is that the tables in the database are not created. I've tried with these How do I add a table in MySQL using docker-compose , Seeding a MySQL DB for a Dockerized Django App or this Seeding a MySQL DB for a Dockerized Django App but I couldn't fix it yet.

How can I create the required tables in the MySQL db container while runing the docker-compose? Must I add every single table by hand or there is a way to do it from the django app automatically?

Thanks

Hi i think this answer helps you ##1.- Reset all your migrations

find . -path "*/migrations/*.py" -not -name "__init__.py" -delete
find . -path "*/migrations/*.pyc"  -delete

##2.- See and apply your migrations again

python manage.py showmigrations
python manage.py makemigrations
python manage.py migrate

You should not reset your migrations unless you want to wipe all of the data completely and start over. Your migrations should exist beforehand. So if you dont mind about old migrations you can delete them and use python manage.py makemigrations and then proceed to following steps:

So if your applications starts at the moment, we need to update your docker-compose file in a way that it uses entrypoint.sh. An ENTRYPOINT allows you to configure a container that will run as an executable. First things first, create your entrypoint.sh file on the same level as docker-compose.yaml . Next, don't forget to add chmod +x entrypoint.sh so entrypoint can be executed

entrypoint.sh file:

#!/bin/bash

set -e

echo "${0}: running migrations."
python manage.py migrate --noinput

echo "${0}: collecting statics."

python manage.py collectstatic --noinput
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000

Afterwards update your docker-compose.yaml file. Change your command line to:

command:
  - /bin/sh
  - '-c'
  - '/code/entrypoint.sh'

Additionally you should store all of your pip requirements in requirements.txt file and in your Dockerfile you should run pip install -r requirements.txt

You can dump your pip requirements with a command pip freeze > requirements.txt
