This week we added Docker containers and it has been quite the adventure! I teamed up with ChatGPT to tackle some tricky issues with our microservices. Our goal was to get our notification, Alpaca, and database microservices running smoothly within their Docker environments. The road was bumpy at first—containers wouldn’t talk to each other, and network errors had us scratching our heads.
But with some detective work and a bit of AI magic, we got things rolling. We updated service URLs to use Docker’s service names instead of localhost, ensuring our containers could find each other across the Docker network. We also sorted out some dependency quirks and ironed out configuration wrinkles. By the end, we had our services happily chatting away and ready for action. It was a blast troubleshooting with ChatGPT, and it feels great to have our containerized microservices up and running! Looking forward to the next challenge on this AI-powered development journey!
