My Postgres DB is running in a Docker container. When container is started, it says it's ready to listen on 5432. My application container is set to depend on it.
container_name: my_postgres_db
image: library/postgres:latest
network_mode: bridge
expose:
- 5432
ports:
- 5432:5432
environment:
- POSTGRES_USER=admin
- POSTGRES_PASSWORD=admin
- POSTGRES_DB=localdb
restart: always
The config for app:
container_name: my_test_app
depends_on:
- db
build:
context: ./
dockerfile: Dockerfile
image: my_test_app
ports:
- 8080:8080
Based on solutions to the similar questions, I changed the localhost in the DB URL to:
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:postgresql://db:5432/localdb
It causes another error = "Unknown host exception". Even if I manage to build app this way, it still doesn't work. Logs say,
Connection to localhost:5432 refused
What else am I missing?
Why is it still listening to localhost:5432 when I obviously changed it to db:5432 and gradlew clean/build it?
