Node.js gives me this error: ENOTFOUND db
, Full error message bellow.

Here is docker-compose.yml that contains MySQL and adminer services.

Here is my node.js database connection config.
const database = mysql.createConnection({
host: 'db',
user: config.get('db.user'),
password: config.get('db.password'),
database: config.get('db.database'),
port: config.get('db.port'),
connectTimeout: config.get('db.connectTimeout')
});
database.connect(err => {
if (err) {
console.log(err.message);
process.exit(1);
} else {
console.log('Connected to database');
}
});
CodePudding user response:
You don't tell us, but I assume your Node app is running on the host and not in a container? If that's the case, then you need to expose the MySQL port to the host, so it's reachable. You also need to use localhost
as the hostname in your configuration.
Expose the port by changing the database part of your docker-compose file to
db:
image: mysql
restart: always
environment:
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: root
MYSQL_DATABASE: 'nodejs-restfull-api-development'
ports:
- 3306:3306
volumes:
- db-config:/etc/mysql
- db-data:/var/lib/mysql
And change your Node configuration to
const database = mysql.createConnection({
host: 'localhost',
user: config.get('db.user'),
password: config.get('db.password'),
database: config.get('db.database'),
port: config.get('db.port'),
connectTimeout: config.get('db.connectTimeout')
});
