I am trying to connect two different services into the same network. I have two Dockerfiles that I am using to build each container.
The first one is:
FROM ubuntu:20.04
ENV TZ=America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires
ENV FLASK_APP=fcomp
ENV FLASK_ENV=development
RUN ln -snf /usr/share/zoneinfo/$TZ /etc/localtime && echo $TZ > /etc/timezone
RUN apt-get update -y && apt-get install -y python3-pip python3-dev npm
RUN npm init -y
RUN npm install bootstrap bootswatch
COPY . /BB_Comparator
RUN ln -sf /node_modules /BB_Comparator/node_modules
WORKDIR /BB_Comparator
RUN pip3 install -r requirements.txt
This is the other one:
FROM python:2.7
COPY . /BB_Comparator
WORKDIR /BB_Comparator
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt
ENTRYPOINT [ "python"]
CMD ["app.py"]
As you can see, one container is running with ubuntu and the other is running a flask app with Python2.7
I ran both containers with the following commands:
========================================
docker run --name preprocessor-container -v bbcomparator-volume:/BB_Comparator/uploads/preprocessor_files preprocessor
========================================
docker run -dt --name bbcomparator-container -v bbcomparator-volume:/app/uploads/preprocessor_files bbcomparator
========================================
I created a network to connect both container into the same one:
docker network create bb_comparator_network
and I added both containers:
docker network connect bb_comparator_network bbcomparator-container
========================================
docker network connect bb_comparator_network preprocessor-container
========================================
Finally, when I tried to ping the Ip address from the bbcomparator-container (ubuntu) to preprocessor-container (python2.7) I have
the following response: ping: http://172.18.0.3/: Name or service not known
