What is PokeAPI?
PokeAPI is a full RESTful API linked to an extensive database detailing everything about the Pokémon main game series.
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'
