Useful containers for local web development

This project consists of a Docker Compose project with several useful pre-configured containers that are useful for development environments.

The following services/containers are available:

• DynamoDB
• Jaeger Tracing
• MailCatcher
• Memcached
• MongoDB
• MySQL
• NGINX Proxy
• Portainer
• Postgres
• Redis

It's pretty easy to get up and running by following these steps:

1. Clone this repository to your local Docker environment.
2. cd into the cloned repository and run docker-compose up -d for the services that you want, e.g.:

user@ubuntu:~$ docker-compose up -d mysql portainer

3. Check out each service's section on this README file in order to access the available endpoints.

DynamoDB

Amazon DynamoDB is a key-value and document database that delivers single-digit millisecond performance at any scale. It's a fully managed, multiregion, multimaster, durable database with built-in security, backup and restore, and in-memory caching for internet-scale applications. DynamoDB can handle more than 10 trillion requests per day and can support peaks of more than 20 million requests per second.

Jaeger Tracing

Jaeger, inspired by Dapper and OpenZipkin, is a distributed tracing system released as open source by Uber Technologies. It is used for monitoring and troubleshooting microservices-based distributed systems, including:

• Distributed context propagation
• Distributed transaction monitoring
• Root cause analysis
• Service dependency analysis
• Performance / latency optimization

MailCatcher

MailCatcher runs a super simple SMTP server which catches any message sent to it to display in a web interface. Run mailcatcher, set your favourite app to deliver to smtp://mailcatcher.web-dev-svc.localhost:25 instead of your default SMTP server, then check out http://mailcatcher.web-dev-svc.localhost to see the mail that's arrived so far.

Endpoints:

• Management UI: http://mailcatcher.web-dev-svc.localhost/
• Service: mailcatcher.web-dev-svc.localhost
• Port: 25

Memcached

Memcached is an in-memory key-value store for small chunks of arbitrary data (strings, objects) from results of database calls, API calls, or page rendering.

Endpoints:
