Dockerizing Your NestJS Application with PostgreSQL
Simplify Deployment and Management with Docker

Docker has revolutionized the way we deploy and manage applications. In this tutorial, you'll learn how to containerize your NestJS application and integrate it with PostgreSQL using Docker Compose.

Key Topics Covered:

  • Understanding Docker: Learn the basics of Docker containers and images.
  • Creating a Dockerfile: Define your NestJS application's environment using a Dockerfile.
  • Setting Up PostgreSQL: Create a Docker container for your PostgreSQL database.
  • Using Docker Compose: Manage both your NestJS application and PostgreSQL database using Docker Compose.
  • Connecting to PostgreSQL: Configure your NestJS application to connect to the PostgreSQL database.
  • running typeorm migration on container
  • Deployment: Deploy your Dockerized application to a production environment.

Benefits of Dockerizing Your NestJS Application:

  • Portability: Run your application consistently across different environments.
  • Isolation: Ensure your application is isolated from other running services.
  • Scalability: Easily scale your application horizontally by adding more containers.
  • Reproducibility: Create consistent development and production environments.
