# Docker-Tetris

This project's aim is to combine [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) and a Web application by [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/). The selected Web applicatication is a beautifully crafted JavaScript game by [ytiurin](https://github.com/ytiurin). The [game](https://github.com/ytiurin/tetris) is a faithful simulation of the original Tetris of 1984.

Although to host this game consisting of only static pages [Flask](http://flask.pocoo.org/) is an overkill, the main idea of using Docker containers might be useful for a real Flask application.

 

## Docker

Docker is a [containerization](https://docs.docker.com/get-started/) tool. The free [Community Edition](https://www.docker.com/community-edition) is easy to [install](https://docs.docker.com/install/). The optional [post-installation steps](https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/linux-postinstall/) enable running Docker commands without root privileges.

```
$ sudo groupadd docker
$ sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
```
Logout-login is required.

### Docker Commands

Docker images can be listed and removed with **docker image** family commands.
For more information check its manual pages.

```
$ man docker-image
$ man docker-image-ls
$ man docker-image-rm

$ docker image ls
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE

Docker containers can be listed and removed with **docker container** family commands.

```
 

## Docker Compose

[Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/) uses [YAML](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML) to define and run containers.

Without Docker Compose lengthy **docker build** and **docker run** commands must be issued. Another improvement is using arguments in the Dockerfile scripts. The important [FROM](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#from) instruction can contain references to arguments. See the scripts in the [docker/](./docker) directory.

The [.env](./docker/.venv) file contains variables, all starting with **X_**, which are then used in the [docker-compose.yml](./docker/docker-compose.yml) script.

### Docker Compose Commands

The application can be built and run with a simple shell script, [docker.sh](./docker/docker.sh), which creates a [tarball](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarball_(computing)) from the Flask web application. This tarball is referred to in the [Dockerfile-App](./docker/Dockerfile-App) script.

```
$ cd docker
$ ./docker.sh
. . .
WARNING: Image for service app was built because it did not already exist. To rebuild this image you must use `dockerCreating docker_base_1 ... done
Creating app ... done
Creating app ...
Attaching to app
app | ++ Flask App: tetris-server/app.py
app | ++ Flask HTTP port: 8888
app | ++ started
```

After running the Docker Compose scripts, three images are added. These images can be checked in a new terminal.

The **ubuntu:16:04** is the where **tetris-server/base** is derived from, and in turn the **tetris-server/app** image is derived from this base image. The **tetris-server/base** is prepared with Python 3 projects in mind and can be reached with SSH. Therefore this image might be useful for other Python 3 images, this means that build durations and storage requierements will be less than using directly a Linux distribution.

```
$ docker-compose help

$ docker-compose ps
Name Command State Ports
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
app sh -c /${DIR_PROJECT}/start.sh Up 0.0.0.0:2222->22/tcp, 0.0.0.0:8888->8888/tcp
docker_base_1 /bin/bash Exit 0
```

The running containers can be stopped with CTRL+C.

```
app | ++ started
^CGracefully stopping... (press Ctrl+C again to force)
Stopping app ...
Killing app ... done
```

### Docker Compose Detached Mode

Docker Compose has a **detached mode**:

> -d Detached mode: Run containers in the background

This is useful to run containers as services.

```
$ docker-compose down
Removing app ... done
Removing docker_base_1 ... done
Removing network docker_default

$ docker-compose up -d
Creating docker_base_1 ... done
Creating app ... done
Creating app ...

orhanku@OK-N752VX ~/ME/DEV/docker-tetris/docker $ docker-compose ps
Name Command State Ports
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
app sh -c /${DIR_PROJECT}/start.sh Up 0.0.0.0:2222->22/tcp, 0.0.0.0:8888->8888/tcp
docker_base_1 /bin/bash Exit 0
```

### Docker Compose Errors

During development of new images with frequent ups and downs, Docker Compose may give errors related to its cache. When this is the case, it is best to remove all project containers (-f for force) and images and rebuild everything.

```
$ docker-compose up
. . .
ERROR: Error: image not found

$ docker ps -a

## SSH

The container can be accessed via SSH on port **2222** by the **root** user with password **1234**.

```
$ ssh root@localhost -p 2222
