Docker how to send request(curl - get, post) one container to another container


Using docker networking and the network commands, you can make sure those containers are part of the same network.

ping service

You can:

  • do it statically in the docker compose file (and relaunch new containers), - test it out at runtime, adding existing running containers to a new network
