Add inboard Docker project

[br3ndonland]

What it is

inboard provides Docker images running Uvicorn and Gunicorn to power FastAPI apps.

Why it's awesome in general

• Production ready

• Actively maintained

• 100% unit test coverage, with additional integration testing

• Highly configurable, but with sensible defaults

• Awesome logo:

  

Why it adds to what's already here

Compared with tiangolo/uvicorn-gunicorn-docker, which is already listed in awesome-fastapi, inboard has several advantages:

• One repo. The tiangolo/uvicorn-gunicorn images are in at least three separate repos (tiangolo/uvicorn-gunicorn-docker, tiangolo/uvicorn-gunicorn-fastapi-docker, and tiangolo/uvicorn-gunicorn-starlette-docker), with large amounts of code duplication, making maintenance difficult for an already-busy maintainer. This repo combines three into one, supporting standard library ASGI apps, Starlette, and FastAPI.
• One Dockerfile. This repo leverages multi-stage builds to produce multiple Docker images from one Dockerfile.
• One Python requirements file. This repo uses Poetry with Poetry Extras for dependency management with a single pyproject.toml.
• One programming language. Pure Python with no shell scripts.
• Logging configuration. Logging a Uvicorn+Gunicorn+FastAPI stack is complicated, but the tiangolo/uvicorn-gunicorn images don't provide logging configurations. There has been extensive confusion and discussion as a result (see [QUESTION] How to do logging in a FastApi container, any logging does not appear tiangolo/uvicorn-gunicorn-fastapi-docker#19 and Add logging configuration for Gunicorn and Uvicorn br3ndonland/inboard#3). In the inboard project, Uvicorn, Gunicorn, and FastAPI log streams are propagated to the root logger, and handled by the custom root logging config. Developers can customize further if needed, but they can also simply start up the Docker images, and logging just works.
• Docker images on GitHub. Docker images are pushed to GitHub Container Registry, eliminating the need for Docker Hub.

How to get started

docker pull ghcr.io/br3ndonland/inboard
docker run -d -p 80:80 ghcr.io/br3ndonland/inboard
