# node-grpc-base
This repository demonstrates how to dockerize a node-grpc application for both server and client side.
## Docker Image
There is an official node-grpc docker image, but it doesn't seem to work in the latest release. The `Dockerfile` is as follow:
```Dockerfile
FROM grpc/node:0.11-onbuild
EXPOSE 50051
```
Instead, we use our own Dockerfile, with node-gyp installed to run the gRPC:
```Dockerfile
FROM mhart/alpine-node:9.11.1
WORKDIR /app
COPY package.json yarn.lock ./
RUN apk add --no-cache --virtual .gyp \
python \
make \
g++ \
&& yarn install --production \
&& apk del .gyp gcc g++ python
COPY . .
EXPOSE 50051
CMD ["node", "index.js"]
```
## Build
```bash
$ docker-compose build
```
## Verify Build
```bash
$ docker ps -a
```
Output:
```bash
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
a51f05979b50 nodegrpcbase_server "node index.js" 27 seconds ago Up 27 seconds 127.0.0.1:50051->50051/tcp nodegrpcbase_server_1
2d7a4812a0b7 nodegrpcbase_client "node index.js" 38 seconds ago Exited (0) 1 second ago nodegrpcbase_client_1
```
## Docker Build
Check the gRPC server docker image size:
```bash
$ docker ps -a | grep server
nodegrpcbase_server latest 2bc96e04384a 8 minutes ago 200MB
```
Check the gRPC client docker image size:
```bash
$ docker ps -a | grep client
nodegrpcbase_client latest c4c84877a017 2 minutes ago 254MB
```
## Test
```bash
$ docker-compose up client
```
Output:
```bash
Starting nodegrpcbase_client_1 ... done
Attaching to nodegrpcbase_client_1
client_1 | greeting from a51f05979b50: Hello, John Doe
nodegrpcbase_client_1 exited with code 0
```
