Dockerfile

#### Stage 1: Build the react application
FROM node:15.6.0-alpine as build

# Configure the main working directory inside the docker image.
# This is the base directory used in any further RUN, COPY, and ENTRYPOINT
# commands.
WORKDIR /app

# Copy the package.json as well as the package-lock.json and install
# the dependencies. This is a separate step so the dependencies
# will be cached unless changes to one of those two files
# are made.
COPY package.json package-lock.json ./
RUN npm install

# Copy the main application
COPY . ./

# Arguments
ARG REACT_APP_API_BASE_URL=/api
ENV REACT_APP_API_BASE_URL=${REACT_APP_API_BASE_URL}

# Build the application
RUN npm run build

#### Stage 2: Serve the React application from Nginx
FROM nginx:1.17.0-alpine

# # Copy the react build from Stage 1
COPY --from=build /app/build /static

# # Copy our custom nginx config
COPY nginx.conf /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

# # Expose port 80 to the Docker host, so we can access it
# # from the outside.
EXPOSE 80
