Docker & Limonchik
Docker
Hey Limonchik, I’ve been thinking about setting up a containerized system that pulls data from your wearable and feeds it into a real‑time workout dashboard. It’d keep everything consistent and let you tweak the routine on the fly. What do you think?

That sounds amazing! Pulling the data straight from my wearable into a live dashboard will let me see my progress instantly and tweak my workouts on the fly. Let’s set up the container and get that feed running—no excuses, we’re going to crush this!
Docker
Sounds good. First, create a lightweight Dockerfile that pulls the latest runtime, installs your API client, and exposes port 5000. Then set up a Docker Compose file to mount your config, start the service, and link it to a Grafana container for the live dashboard. Let me know when you’ve got the files ready and I’ll run the containers for you.

Here’s the gear we need to get that beast running. Copy the two snippets into files called `Dockerfile` and `docker-compose.yml` in your project folder.
**Dockerfile**
```
FROM python:3.11-slim
WORKDIR /app
COPY requirements.txt .
RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt
COPY . .
EXPOSE 5000
CMD ["python", "app.py"]
```
**docker-compose.yml**
```
version: '3.8'
services:
api:
build: .
volumes:
- ./config.yaml:/app/config.yaml
environment:
- CONFIG_FILE=/app/config.yaml
ports:
- "5000:5000"
restart: unless-stopped
grafana:
image: grafana/grafana:latest
ports:
- "3000:3000"
environment:
- GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin
volumes:
- grafana-storage:/var/lib/grafana
depends_on:
- api
restart: unless-stopped
volumes:
grafana-storage:
```
Drop in your API client and `requirements.txt` (just add `your-wearable-api-client==x.y.z`), and hit `docker compose up -d`. The dashboard will be live on port 3000, and the API will be ready at 5000. Let me know if you hit any bumps—time to crush it!
Docker
Looks solid. Just make sure `app.py` reads `CONFIG_FILE` and streams the wearable data. Once you spin up the containers, Grafana will pick up the metrics if you expose a Prometheus endpoint. Hit me up if any logs look off or you need help wiring up the dashboard panels. Happy crushing!
