I have a docker-compose file with everything I need for my project.
This docker-compose has a nginx server, mysql, phpmyadmin and php. At the top of it, I added recently an angular container. Everything is working fine if I go to localhost:4200, I'm on the angular app, and if I go to localhost:80, I'm on the Laravel backend.
Now I need to make a simple classical request to my backend API. I set up a proxy for angular looking like this :
{
"/api/*": {
"target":"http://localhost:80",
"secure":false,
"changeOrigin":true,
"pathRewrite": {"^/api" : ""},
"logLevel":"debug"
}
}
This is the config I copied based on this topic.
But when I try to make the call, Chrome is saying that http://localhost:4200/api/test isn't existing (error 404) which is normal. On the other hand, the angular server says
HPM] Error occurred while trying to proxy request /test from localhost:4200 to http://localhost:80 (ECONNREFUSED) (https://nodejs.org/api/errors.html#errors_common_system_errors)
I'm guessing it comes from docker but I can't figure out how to resolve this.

And here are the Dockerfiles for PHP and Angular :
PHP :
FROM php:7-fpm
RUN docker-php-ext-install pdo pdo_mysql
WORKDIR /var/www
Angular :
#Latest Node
FROM node
#Creating working folder
RUN mkdir -p /usr/src/app
#Update pwd
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
#Run npm
RUN npm install
EXPOSE 4200
CMD ["npm", "start"]

I fixed the problem by removing Angular from the docker and running it manually with a simple npm start
.
