Docker Deployment

Zintrust comes with a pre-configured Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml for easy containerization.

Building the Image

Build your application's Docker image:

docker build -t zintrust-app .

Using Docker Compose

The included docker-compose.yml sets up the application along with a database:

docker-compose up -d

Multi-Stage Builds

The default Dockerfile uses a multi-stage build to keep the final image size small:

1. Build Stage: Installs all dependencies and compiles TypeScript.
2. Production Stage: Copies only the compiled code and production dependencies.

Environment Variables in Docker

You can pass environment variables to your container using an .env file or the -e flag:

docker run -e DB_HOST=db.example.com zintrust-app

Persistent Storage

Ensure you mount volumes for your logs and any local file storage:

services:
  app:
    volumes:
      - ./logs:/app/logs
      - ./storage:/app/storage
