Docker – Environment Variables, Env File & A Little Django (Python)
Why Use Environment Variables? Whilst building my Django project I replaced several of the values within settings.py with an option for them to be read from environment variables, rather than storing them in plain text within settings.py. This change allows me to store the settings.py file within a source control repository (e.g. Git) and also … Continue reading Docker – Environment Variables, Env File & A Little Django (Python)
Modifying A Pod To Use A Persistent Volume / Persistent Volume Claim (Kubernetes)
This blog post is going to look at connecting a Kubernetes pod to a Persistent Volume (PV) using a Persistent Volume Claim (PVC). I have split my blog posts whilst I have been learning about Kubernetes as they were getting quite lengthy and each is worthy of its own space. If you need to learn … Continue reading Modifying A Pod To Use A Persistent Volume / Persistent Volume Claim (Kubernetes)
Persistent Volume Claims (Kubernetes)
With the Kuberenetes Persistent Volume (PV) created, it is time to look at the Persistent Volume Claim (PVC). Originally this blog post was going to be part of the PV post but that grew to nearly 1000 words before I got to this subject, so I split it into its own post. If you skipped … Continue reading Persistent Volume Claims (Kubernetes)

Creating A Docker Image
As regular readers may have noticed I use Python a lot and at times I have messed up using differing Python/module versions that did not work too well and then had to spend time unravelling my mess. There are (at least) two solutions to this type of problem: Python Virtual Environment Containerisation Containerisation and Docker … Continue reading Creating A Docker Image
