I am building an application based on Django/DRF as backend and Angular as frontend. Angular is to be ran by Nginx. And I want to deploy this project on DigitalOcean’s droplet using docker-compose. Here is the project’s structure:
price_comparison_tool/
├── backend
│ ├── accounts
│ ├── api
│ ├── price_tool_project
│ ├── static
│ ├── staticfiles
│ ├── db.sqlite3
│ ├── Dockerfile
│ ├── entrypoint.sh
│ ├── manage.py
│ └── requirements.txt
├── frontend
│ ├── e2e
│ ├── node_modules
│ ├── src
│ ├── angular.json
│ ├── CREDITS
│ ├── Dockerfile
│ ├── karma.conf.js
│ ├── LICENSE
│ ├── nginx.conf
│ ├── package.json
│ ├── package-lock.json
│ ├── README.md
│ ├── tsconfig.app.json
│ ├── tsconfig.json
│ ├── tsconfig.spec.json
│ └── tslint.json
└── docker-compose.yml
Here is the content of frontend
Dockerfile:
FROM node:14-alpine as build
RUN mkdir -p /usr/src/app
# Change directory so that our commands run inside this new directory
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
COPY package.json /usr/src/app
RUN npm install
COPY . /usr/src/app
RUN npm run build-prod
FROM nginx:1.17
COPY --from=build /usr/src/app/dist /usr/share/nginx/html/
COPY nginx.conf /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
EXPOSE 3000
ENTRYPOINT ["nginx", "-g", "daemon off;"]
And here what I have in docker-compose.yml
:
version: '3.7'
services:
api:
build: ./backend
ports:
- "8000:8000"
volumes:
- ./backend:/code
web:
build: ./frontend
volumes:
- .:/frontend
ports:
- "80:80"
depends_on:
- api
When I run docker-compose up --build
locally on my machine (Ubuntu 20.04) — everything builds and runs OK — I can see the project on url 0.0.0.0
and the API on 0.0.0.0:8000
. But when I do the same on DigitalOcean’s droplet – I get following error:
Step 9/13 : FROM nginx:1.17
---> 9beeba249f3e
Step 10/13 : COPY --from=build /usr/src/app/dist/ /usr/share/nginx/html/
ERROR: Service 'web' failed to build: COPY failed: stat usr/src/app/dist/: file does not exist
Can anybody point me what I am doing wrong? That’s my first experience with Docker and Docker-compose, as well as with DigitalOcean…
Thanks in advance!

Well, finally I could solve my problem by resizing my droplet from
1CPU / 2 GB Memory / 50 GB Disk / FRA1 - Ubuntu 20.04 (LTS) x64
to
2CPU / 4 GB Memory / 50 GB Disk / FRA1 - Ubuntu 20.04 (LTS) x64
.After doing that the deployment went OK.
Here is how I solved it:
