how to run Aspose.Cells.GridJs in docker
Docker Guide
Prerequisites
Ensure you have Docker installed on your machine. You can download and install Docker from the official Docker website.
Step 1: Create a Dockerfile
Create a file named Dockerfile
in your project directory. The Dockerfile
should contain instructions on how to build your Docker image.
Step 2:Write Dockerfile for GridJs
Here is a sample Dockerfile
for GridJs demo with ASP.NET Core application:
# Use the official .NET6.0 runtime as a parent image
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/aspnet:6.0-focal AS base
WORKDIR /app
EXPOSE 80
# Use the official .NET6.0 SDK as build enviroment
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:6.0-focal AS build
WORKDIR /src
#we shall use .net6.0 project
COPY ["gridjs-demo-.net6.csproj", "."]
RUN dotnet restore "./gridjs-demo-.net6.csproj"
# Copy everything else and build
COPY . .
WORKDIR "/src/."
RUN dotnet build "gridjs-demo-.net6.csproj" -c Release -o /app/build
# Publish the app
FROM build AS publish
RUN dotnet publish "gridjs-demo-.net6.csproj" -c Release -o /app/publish
# Final stage/image
FROM base AS final
WORKDIR /app
# if you want display better like in windows ,you need to install kinds of fonts in /usr/share/fonts/
# then the application can parse and render the fonts which is used in the spread sheet file
# here we don't provide extra fonts resource
# Install Fonts because the SDK image contains very few fonts. The command copies font files from local to docker image. Make sure you have a local “fonts” directory that contains all the fonts you need to install. In this example, the local “fonts” directory is put in the same directory as the Dockerfile.
# COPY fonts/* /usr/share/fonts/
# the basic file path which contains the spread sheet files
RUN mkdir -p /app/wb
# the cache file path for GridJs
RUN mkdir -p /app/grid_cache
# we provide some sample spread sheet files in demo
COPY wb/*.xlsx /app/wb/
COPY --from=publish /app/publish .
# set the start command for the docker image
ENTRYPOINT ["dotnet", "gridjs-demo-.net6.dll"]
Step 3: Building the Docker Image
Build the Docker Image: From the terminal, execute the following command to build your Docker image:
docker build -t gridjs-demo-net6 .
you can replace gridjs-demo-net6 with the name you want to give your Docker image.
Step 4: Running a Docker Container
Once the image is built, you can run a container using the following command:
docker run -d -p 24262:80 --name gridjs-demo-container gridjs-demo-net6
Explanation of Docker Run Command Options -d: Run the container in detached mode (in the background). -p 24262:80: Map port 80 in the container to port 24262 on the host machine. –name gridjs-demo-container: Assign a name to the container.
Step 5: Verify the Container is Running
To check if your container is running, use the following command:
docker ps
This will list all running containers. You should see your container listed along with its name and status.
Step 6: Access The Web Application
Open a web browser and go to http://localhost:24262/GridJs2/List
. You should see your application running.
Additional Commands
Stopping the Container
To stop a running container, use the following command:
docker stop gridjs-demo-container
Removing a Container
To remove a stopped container, use the following command:
docker rm gridjs-demo-container
Removing a Image
To remove an image, use the following command:
docker rmi gridjs-demo-net6
