Base Development Django Environment

This is a base development environment for a Django project that uses Docker and Postgres.

Developed from docker documents here.

Docker commands to build and run docker containers

Build the needed files for the Postgres database and shut back down. Will be in DjangoApp/data when run.

docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d db
docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml down db

Now the database files are created can run all containers.

docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d

Notes

Used docker-compose.dev.yml and DjangoApp/Dockerfile.dev file naming so that it highlighted the fact that this is a development environment.
