# 🐳 Docker Configuration

This directory contains all Docker and containerization-related files for RxMinder.

## Files

- **`Dockerfile`** - Multi-stage Docker build configuration with buildx support
- **`docker-compose.yaml`** - Service orchestration with multi-platform support
- **`docker-bake.hcl`** - Advanced buildx configuration for multi-platform builds
- **`nginx.conf`** - Production web server configuration
- **`.dockerignore`** - Files and directories to exclude from Docker build context

## Docker Buildx Support

This project now supports Docker Buildx for multi-platform builds (AMD64 and ARM64).

### Quick Start with Buildx

```bash
# Setup buildx builder (run once)
../scripts/buildx-helper.sh setup

# Build for local platform only (faster for development)
../scripts/buildx-helper.sh build-local

# Build for multiple platforms
../scripts/buildx-helper.sh build-multi

# Build and push to registry
../scripts/buildx-helper.sh push docker.io/username latest

# Build using Docker Bake (advanced)
../scripts/buildx-helper.sh bake
```

### Manual Buildx Commands

```bash
# Create and use buildx builder
docker buildx create --name rxminder-builder --driver docker-container --bootstrap --use

# Build for multiple platforms
docker buildx build --platform linux/amd64,linux/arm64 -t rxminder:latest --load .

# Build with bake file
docker buildx bake -f docker-bake.hcl
```

## Traditional Usage

From the project root directory:

```bash
# Build and start services
docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yaml up -d

# View logs
docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yaml logs

# Stop services
docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yaml down
```

## Build Process

The Dockerfile uses a multi-stage build:

1. **Builder stage**: Installs dependencies and builds the React app
2. **Production stage**: Serves the built app with nginx

## Services

- **frontend**: React application served by nginx
- **couchdb**: Database for medication and user data

Both services include health checks and proper security configurations.
