Docker Environment

Location: .env

In the table below the container host refers to the IP address that the docker container listens on, setting this to 127.0.0.1 for example will only expose the configured port to localhost, whereas setting to 0.0.0.0 will expose the port on all interfaces.

The container port refers to the external docker container port, used to access services within the container. Changing this does not require any changes to configuration within container. For example setting the MONGO_PORT to 21018 will allow you to access the mongo service through that port, even though the application within the container is listening on 21017.
