Django3 dockerized and orchestrated

This project is a basic django 3 project thought to help starting up a new django project dockerized and orchestrated.

Creates 3 docker images: django with gunicorn, postgres and nginx.

Requirements

• docker
• docker-compose

Run the project

Run the project:

docker-compose up

Go to:

http://localhost/admin

User admin and password admin. You can change them in the environment variables: .envs/.django

Stop the project:

docker-compose down

If you want to deploy it to a Kubernetes cluster (you need the kubectl pointing to a cluster):

kubectl apply -f k8s/

TIP: You can try the kubernetes using minikube in your local machine and assigning kubectl to the "minikube cluster".
