Docker HTTP-requests between containers

Question

I\'m at the first stage in learning how to use Docker so I\'m trying basic things. I\'ve created two Node Express services that need to exchange data via HTTP-requests.

Answer 1

See the document. The port 10010 is a host port but not container port. You should use 9000 when you access service2 container directly.

So just change "http://service2:10010/api/" to "http://service2:9000/api/" and it will work.
