I have a simple script like
print('hey 01')
and I have dockerized it like below:
FROM python:3.8
WORKDIR /crawler_app
COPY requirements.txt .
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt
COPY . .
CMD ["python", "-u", "boot_up.py"]
and also I have a compose file like below:
version: "3.7"
services:
db:
image: mongo:latest
container_name: ${DB_CONTAINER_NAME}
volumes:
- ./mongo-volume:/data/db
restart: always
environment:
MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME: ${MONGO_USER}
MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD: ${MONGO_USER_PASS}
ports:
- ${EXPOSED_PORT}:27017
networks:
- crawl-network
crawler:
build: crawler
container_name: ${CRAWLER_APP_NAME}
restart: always
volumes:
- ./crawler:/crawler_app
networks:
- crawl-network
depends_on:
- db
networks:
crawl-network:
The Problem
The problem is that although I have a volume to inside my Docker container, and when I change code in my editor and save it, the source code inside container would update but there is no way to restart the Python script to start with new updated code.
I have searched a lot about this issue and I found some threads on GitHub and Stack Overflow but none of them was not useful to me and I got no answer from them.
My main question is, how can I restart a Python script inside container when I change the source code and save it?
I found a way that mentions to restart your container every time, but I think that there should be a simple way like something like nodemon to JavaScript.
