I am trying to dockerize a Vite React-Typescript boilerplate setup, but I unable to connect to the container.
Installed vite-react-typescript boilerplate:
npm init vite@latest vite-docker-demo -- --template react-ts
Dockerfile
# Declare the base image
FROM node:lts-alpine3.14
# Build step
# 1. copy package.json and package-lock.json to /app dir
RUN mkdir /app
COPY package*.json /app
# 2. Change working directory to newly created app dir
WORKDIR /app
# 3 . Install dependencies
RUN npm ci
# 4. Copy the source code to /app dir
COPY . .
# 5. Expose port 3000 on the container
EXPOSE 3000
# 6. Run the app
CMD ["npm", "run", "dev"]
Command to run docker container in detached mode and open local dev port 3000 on host:
docker run -d -p 3000:3000 vite
The vite instance seems to be running just fine within the container (docker logs output):
> vite-docker@0.0.0 dev /app
> vite
Pre-bundling dependencies:
react
react-dom
(this will be run only when your dependencies or config have changed)
vite v2.4.4 dev server running at:
> Local: http://localhost:3000/
> Network: use `--host` to expose
ready in 244ms.
However, when I navigate to http://localhost:3000/ within Chrome. I see an error indicating The connection was reset.
Any help resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated!
It turns out that I needed to configure host to something other than localhost.
Within vite.config.ts:
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import reactRefresh from '@vitejs/plugin-react-refresh'
// https://vitejs.dev/config/
export default defineConfig({
server: {
host: '0.0.0.0',
port: 3000,
},
plugins: [reactRefresh()],
})
Resolves the issue.
in package.json use script
"dev": "vite --host"
example:
"scripts": {
"dev": "vite --host",
"build": "tsc && vite build",
"serve": "vite preview"
},
or run with vite --host
