The problem can be solved easily if using compose feature. With compose, you just create one configuration file (docker-compose.yml) like this :

version: '3'
services:
  db:
    image: postgres
  web:
    build: .
    command: python3 manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
    volumes:
      - .:/code
    ports:
      - "8000:8000"
    depends_on:
      - db

To make it run, just call up like this :

docker-compose up 

This is the best way to run all your stack, so, check this reference : https://docs.docker.com/compose/

Success!
