Setting up Redis With Docker

NOTE:

This is just a starting point for using redis within docker. Eventually we'll need to set up an image that utilizes nodejs/npm to install our backend dependencies, postgresql, and redis to all work within a single container. See this helpful tutorial.

To run this simple container, simply invoke:

docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d

And if you want to interact with the redis instance via the cli:

// NOTE FOR POSTGRES, EDIT THIS:

docker exec -it <CONTAINER_ID> psql -U <USERNAME>
