Docker containers in same network

In this project, we are testing two containers in same network. We have following apps:

Apps

1. server - an Express app running on port 4444
2. client - a NextJs app running on port 3000

Build containers

• Build client

docker build --build-arg NEXT_PUBLIC_BACKEND_URI=http://localhost:4444 -t client .

• Build server

docker build -t server .

• Create a network

docker network create test-common-net

Running containers in same network

• Run server

docker run -p 4444:4444 --net test-common-net --name server -d server

• Run client

docker run -p 3000:3000 --net test-common-net --name client -d client
