如何在Docker容器之间建立连接

Question

I am having connection issues when I try to connect my goLang GORM service to a Docker Postgress container. I believe the problem is my golang code at the bottom at the connection string.

docker-compose up
Recreating postgress_postgre_1 ... done
Attaching to postgres
postgres   | 2018-12-11 21:08:48.283 UTC [1] LOG:  listening on IPv4 address "0.0.0.0", port 5432
postgres   | 2018-12-11 21:08:48.283 UTC [1] LOG:  listening on IPv6 address "::", port 5432
postgres   | 2018-12-11 21:08:48.291 UTC [1] LOG:  listening on Unix socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"
postgres   | 2018-12-11 21:08:48.316 UTC [20] LOG:  database system was shut down at 2018-12-11 21:08:44 UTC
postgres   | 2018-12-11 21:08:48.328 UTC [1] LOG:  database system is ready to accept connections

=== when I run the golang I get... panic: failed to connect database

=============== docker-compose.yml

version: '3.6'
services:
  postgre:
    image: postgres:11.1-alpine
    ports:
      - '5432:5432'
    network_mode: bridge
    container_name: postgres

    environment:
      POSTGRES_USER: 'user'
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD: 'password'
      POSTGRESS_DB: 'db_amex01'
    volumes:
      - ./init:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/

==== main.go

package main

type ToDo struct {
    gorm.Model
    ID          int    `json:"id"`

var db *gorm.DB
var err error

func main() {
    const (
        host     = "localhost"
        port     = 5432
        user     = "postgres"
        password = "password"
        dbname   = "db_amex01"
    )


// this is the problem I believe I am having...

    db, err := gorm.Open("postgres", "host='postgres' port=5432 user=user dbname='db_amex01' password='password'")



    defer db.Close()

    if err != nil {
        panic("failed to connect database")
    }

    defer db.Close()

There's a typo in your compose file, you name the service postgre but connect to postgres. Docker uses the service name for the DNS alias on a shared network, so this will break your connection attempt. To fix, just rename your service:

version: '3.6'
services:
  postgres:
    image: postgres:11.1-alpine
    ports:
      - '5432:5432'
    environment:
      POSTGRES_USER: 'user'
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD: 'password'
      POSTGRESS_DB: 'db_amex01'
    volumes:
      - ./init:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/
