# Buoy
Buoy is a simple containerized web app designed for testing load-balancing and demonstrating container concepts. It continuously calls an API endpoint to display basic system information without needing to refresh the page.

# Quickstart
To download and run the latest tag from Docker Hub, simply run:
```
docker run --rm -p 5000:5000 bcbrookman/buoy
```
Docker Compose examples with multiple replicas can be found in `examples/`.
## Building the image
Alternatively, you can build the container locally.
1. Clone the repo
2. `cd` into the repo
3. Run `docker build -t buoy .`
