• create 2 node app containers link to postgres and elastic search
• create a nginx container and proxy to 2 node app containers The app should then be running on your docker daemon on port 80 (On OS X you can use docker-machine env to find out the IP address).

Connect postgres from terminal

Run docker-machine env to get docker-machine host

psql -h [docker-machine host] -U youruser

Destroy containers

Run docker-compose rm
