As
[https://groups.google.com/forum/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer#!msg
/django-developers/_SRnleXuyzI/KYYQXiPHDQAJ per a discussion on the
developers mailing list], I would like to propose adding docker-compose
support to Django.
Right now running the test suite across different databases is annoying at
best, and is a pain point for new developers wishing to join the project.
With a relatively small number of changes we can add a docker-compose
definition to the Django project itself which will allow anyone to quickly
run tests across any supported Python/database version.
One option is to add this to runtests.py, i.e `runtests.py --docker`. I do
not think this is a good approach as there are a large ecosystem of tools
that already work with docker, including editors, CLI tools and shells,
which will not work with runtests.py.
I've already done most of the work for this in [https://github.com/orf
/django-docker-box django-docker-box]. We would need to copy the
[https://github.com/orf/django-docker-box/blob/master/docker-compose.yml
docker-compose.yml] file as well [https://github.com/orf/django-docker-
box/blob/master/Dockerfile as the Dockerfile], and add documentation.
Getting this to work with Oracle would require more work and I believe it
can be done as a future ticket.
