Adding varnish to existing node Dockerfile

I have the following Dockerfile

FROM node:10-alpine
RUN mkdir -p /home/node/app/node_modules && chown -R node:node /home/node/app
WORKDIR /home/node/app
COPY package*.json ./
USER node
RUN npm install
COPY --chown=node:node . .
EXPOSE 8080
CMD [ "node", "app.js" ]

Now I would like to add the Varnish cache and consider this repo docker-varnish how can I organise both together?

UPDATE 1

Once I run this command docker compose build it show following information, but I don't see anything related to varnish

Am I doing things right?

Solution

You could use docker compose to orchestrate multiple containers, as described here: https://www.varnish-software.com/developers/tutorials/running-varnish-docker/#6-docker-compose .

This uses the official Varnish images, rather than the one you suggested.

Here's an example of such a docker-compose.yml file that is used by the docker compose command:

version: "3"
services:
  varnish:
    image: varnish:stable
    container_name: varnish
    volumes:
      - "./default.vcl:/etc/varnish/default.vcl"
    ports:
      - "80:80"
    tmpfs:
      - /var/lib/varnish:exec
    environment:
      - VARNISH_SIZE=2G  
    depends_on:
      - "node" 
  node:
    build: ./
    container_name: node
    ports:
      - "8080:8080"

This docker-compose.yml file assumes that it is located in the same folder as the Dockerfile for your Node container. It also assumes that default.vcl is also located in that folder.

Run docker compose up to bootstrap the stack.
