Create (and eventually run) the two containers

Docker

Rest server

• docker build -t wcag_resr_server .
• docker run –env-file .env -p 8000:8000 –name wcag_rest_server -d wcag_rest_server ### UI
• docker build -t wcag_ui .
• docker run –env-file UI/.env -p 7860:7860 –name wcag_ui -d wcag_ui

For network management and env management

method 1: Run the docker-compose (skip the runs above)

docker-compose up -d

method 2: or creating a Docker network

Create a custom network

docker network create wcag-network

Run the backend container

docker run -d
–name wcag_rest_server
–network wcag-network
–env-file .env
wcag_rest_server

Run the UI container

docker run -d
–name wcag_ui
–network wcag-network
-p 7860:7860
–env-file UI/.env
wcag_ui

Important Notes:

• Backend URL in UI: Make sure your UI is configured to connect to the backend using the container name (e.g., wcag_rest_server) not localhost when running in Docker
• Port exposure: Only the UI needs -p flag to expose ports to your host machine
