[2021-02-12] Docker compose port mapping - Stack Overflow

If you want to bind to the redis port from your nodejs container you will have to expose that port in the redis container:

version: '2'
services:
  nodejs:
    build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: DockerFile
    ports:
      - "4000:4000"
    links:
      - redis
  redis:
    build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: Dockerfile-redis
    expose:
      - "6379"
The expose tag will let you expose ports without publishing them to the host machine, but they will be exposed to the containers networks.

Linux

Linux is a [[free]] and [[open source]] [[operating system]] that began as a clone of [[Unix]].

Unlike other popular operating systems, Linux is not one coherent type of system, but is instead made up of different [[distros]], which come with the Linux kernel as well as different user space software. For example, Ubuntu, a very popular Linux distro, comes with a different graphical window system than Fedora.
