# Use specific versions
FROM python:3.12.1-slim # Not :latest
# Combine RUN commands to reduce layers
RUN apt-get update \
&& apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \
gcc \
libpq-dev \
&& rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* \
&& pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt
# Use .dockerignore
# .dockerignore
.git
.gitignore
node_modules
npm-debug.log
Dockerfile*

2. Security Best Practices
# Run as non-root user
RUN useradd --create-home --shell /bin/bash appuser
USER appuser
# Don't store secrets in images
# Use environment variables or secrets management
# Scan images for vulnerabilities
# docker scan myimage:latest
# Use read-only filesystem where possible
# docker run --read-only myimage
3. Layer Caching Strategy
# Order from least to most frequently changed
FROM node:20-alpine
# 1. System dependencies (rarely change)
RUN apk add --no-cache git
# 2. Package manifests (change sometimes)
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm ci
# 3. Application code (changes often)
COPY . .
# 4. Build step
RUN npm run build
4. Health Checks
# HTTP health check
HEALTHCHECK --interval=30s --timeout=3s --start-period=10s --retries=3 \
CMD curl -f http://localhost:8000/health || exit 1
# TCP health check
HEALTHCHECK --interval=30s --timeout=3s \
CMD nc -z localhost 5432 || exit 1
# Custom script
HEALTHCHECK --interval=30s --timeout=10s \
CMD /app/healthcheck.sh || exit 1
5. Logging Best Practices
services:
app:
logging:
driver: "json-file"
options:
max-size: "10m"
max-file: "3"
labels: "service,environment"
env: "NODE_ENV"
