I followed the instructions here. https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-build-and-deploy-a-flask-application-using-docker-on-ubuntu-18-04 I’m trying to get my website to use NGINX and have a Docker Container serving my Flask Application. It is working, but it is on port 56733. I’m trying to have the Flask App served whenever anyone visits my web page. Could I just change the code below from start.sh
#!/bin/bash
app="docker.test"
docker build -t ${app} .
docker run -d -p **56733**:80 \
--name=${app} \
-v $PWD:/app ${app}
to
#!/bin/bash
app="docker.test"
docker build -t ${app} .
docker run -d -p **80**:80 \
--name=${app} \
-v $PWD:/app ${app}
I’m a noob at this and am doing this to learn more about Docker, Flask and NGINX. If anyone has any resources which explain NGINX well or deploying Docker on NGINX that would be greatly appreciated. I’ve been googling, but haven’t found the resources I’ve locate very helpful.

Yes, it would work if you change the port from
56733
to80
, that way if you visit your IP or your page directly from the browser you would not have to specify a port after it, as port 80 would be bound on the host.However, I think that a better approach would be to use Nginx as a reverse proxy and pass the traffic from port
80
and port443
to the56733
port. You could follow the steps on how to configure Nginx for your docker here:https://www.thepolyglotdeveloper.com/2017/03/nginx-reverse-proxy-containerized-docker-applications/
