How to set up docker compose for local development in a container (using Neovim)
Working locally to build applications is beyond convenience, it's a necessity. Especially if your building for Kubernetes!
The loved IDE (hopefully Neovim 😉), local packages, environment variables and configurations are all there.
But what happens when things change? Context is switched?
What happens when we deploy the application - how can we ensure that if it's "running on my machine", it would keep doing so in production?
There are more than one solutions, this time I'm focusing on docker and specifically compose, that with a few tweaks, lets you run the process in a container, while working directly from your IDE!
The secret sauce here, is mounting the local workspace to the container, and running it in an isolated environment!
