How can I set up a Flask application using Docker Compose?

To set up a Flask application with Docker Compose, you'll need to create a docker-compose.yml file and a Dockerfile for your Flask app.

What should I include in the Dockerfile?

In the Dockerfile, you should specify the base image, install dependencies, copy your application code, and set the command to run your Flask app.

Can you provide a sample docker-compose.yml file?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

version: '3'
services:
  web:
    build: .
    ports:
      - "5000:5000"
    volumes:
      - .:/app

How do I run the application after setting it up?

You can run the application by executing docker-compose up in your terminal. This will start your Flask app in a Docker container.
