I have a django project right now that allows users to login and register an account. Sort of like a blog. All the views are separated and have their own static html file. The project works running locally and all.

Users data is currently running with the default sqlite3 database

currently i am able to put the whole project into a single docker container and it works when I run it.

I use commands:

docker compose up –build

I am trying to separate my docker project into multiple docker containers.

I want separate containers for the frontend and backend.

a lot of tutorials online show how to have multiple containers using only postgressql, but I couldn’t find much on sqlite3(django default database). I want to be able to do this with a sqlite3. Is this a way to do this.

I have a requirements file, .dockerignore, Dockerfile, and a docker-compose.yml file.

Any help would be appreciated.

docker-compose.yml:

eversion: "3"

services:
django:
    image: django-docker:0.0.1
    build: .
    ports:
      - "8000:8000"```


Dockerfile:

FROM python:3.12.3

ENV PYTHONUNBUFFER=1

WORKDIR /code

COPY requirements.txt .

RUN pip install -r requirements.txt

COPY . .

EXPOSE 8000

CMD ["python", "manage.py","runserver"]
