How to use this image

This container connects to a Postgres database via the environment variables POSTGRES_DB, POSTGRES_USER, POSTGRES_PASSWORD, POSTGRES_HOST, POSTGRES_PORT.

The container connects to a Redis cache via the environment variable REDIS_CONNECTION_STRING.

Run the container

The container exposes port 80. It needs a PostgreSQL and a Redis instance to connect to. Refer to the section How to use this image for mapping the environment variables.

It's recommended to use the provided docker-compose.yml to start a container from this image.

Build the data

Pokémon data isn't automatically present in this image. All Pokémon data is persisted in a PostgreSQL database and thus needs to be built.

When the container is up and running, run the following shell commands:

docker exec pokeapi python manage.py migrate --settings=config.docker-compose
docker exec pokeapi sh -c 'echo "from data.v2.build import build_all; build_all()" | python manage.py shell --settings=config.docker-compose'
