  • So today we will be containerizing a simple NodeJS application called the "Dad Jokes API" (we will reference it as DJA for short). The DJA service has only one use; Provide high quality dad jokes to whomever desires them. So simply, a user will access our DJA endpoint and will be presented with a dad joke within a JSON Object. So if you haven't already, go ahead and download the source code for the DJA from my github. I will be basing all of my following steps off of this project setup.

    Official Docker Image for Node.js :whale: :turtle: :rocket:

  • First we will be grabbing a NodeJS image to put in our container. This will place all needed dependencies we need to run a NodeJS application. You can check out this Docker Hub to see the all the possible NodeJS images you could use based on their tags.
