How can I integrate Docker with CI/CD in my Python project?

To integrate Docker with CI/CD in your Python project, you can use tools like Jenkins, GitLab CI, or GitHub Actions. First, create a Dockerfile to define your application's environment. Then, set up your CI/CD pipeline to build the Docker image and run tests.

What should I include in my Dockerfile for a Python application?

Your Dockerfile should include the base image (like python:3.9), copy your application code, install dependencies using pip, and specify the command to run your application.

How do I set up a CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions?

In GitHub Actions, create a .github/workflows/ci.yml file. Define jobs to build your Docker image, run tests, and deploy your application. Use the docker/build-push-action to build and push your image.

Can you give me an example of a simple GitHub Actions workflow?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

name: CI
on: [push]
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Build Docker image
        uses: docker/build-push-action@v2
        with:
          context: .
          push: false
