docker-django | Django project structure | REST library

I was trying to run a Django project with Docker + Nginx + MySQL, by following this Link After successfull build, by running

I have an API in Django (restframework) actually hosted in a Elastic Beanstalk in single docker container template Web server using LoadBalancer and AutoScale provided by AWS EB.

I want to background API because it deals with many requests hits in the same sec causing many 5xx http errors. After some research I found that Celery can make this work for me using SQS, but I don't know how to develop this scenario (I can run the API with Celery workers locally, but I don't know how to make this on AWS EB or even in a docker-compose).

Should I use Elastic Beanstalk Worker environment and/or docker-compose? Can I put Django and Celery in a docker-compose and deploy it on EB Web or I need to change environment tier in this case?

What kind of changes I need to make in my actual project (Docker-Django-EBWeb) to background tasks?

Note: I need some configs in container image to integrate past Oracle 11g DB (instant client 11g + cx-Oracle5.3)

I just started playing around with Django and the JavaScript in my static files don't seem to load, while other another resources like logo.png seems to load fine. Am I missing something really basic? Or what I am doing wrong?

My setup

• Using Docker with Python 3.5 with and Django 2.1 as described here
• My static files are in app\static\app as described here
• I have a JavaScript file (d3.js) and an image (logo.png) in the above directory
• In my template I have
• In settings.py I have DEBUG = True (default)
• On a Windows environment

Tried solutions

• I can find the files with python manage.py findstatic app/d3.js
• I tried adding STATICFILES_DIRS as suggested here, but that didn't seem to work.

Directory

├───project │ └───__pycache__ └───app ├───migrations │ └───__pycache_ ├───static │ └───app ├───templates │ └───app └───__pycache__

HTML

I am trying to get some template information to display on a web page served in from a Docker container. It is using uWSGI. The name of the template is base.html

There are "decorations" associated with the base.html file that are located in the static directory. To be more specific, it resides in the static/wforms/assets directory. Below is how the assets directory is being used in the template.

I clone the docker image from: https://github.com/twtrubiks/docker-django-nginx-uwsgi-postgres-tutorial

I execute "docker-compose up" and the containers are created as expected. However, if I edit the files inside /api folder and execute "docker-compose up" again, the contains remains the same content as before.

I've already try the following command but no luck

I've been following a tutorial for Django and docker using nginx here http://ruddra.com/2016/08/14/docker-django-nginx-postgres/. but I have another VM with an exposed port of 8000 so I changed it to 8100 but left the other at 8000

this is my compose file:

When I run my container, it just hangs on the next line and if I write

curl http://0.0.0.0:8000/

I get

Failed to connect to 0.0.0.0 port 8000: Connection refuse

This is my dockerfile

When I visit the address http://192.168.99.100:8000/ I can't see the django's welcome page in my browser.
