Overview of this book

A key technology for building web applications and tooling, Node.js brings JavaScript to the server enabling full-stack development in a common language. This fourth edition of the Node Cookbook is updated with the latest Node.js features and the evolution of the Node.js framework ecosystems. This practical guide will help you to get started with creating, debugging, and deploying your Node.js applications and cover solutions to common problems, along with tips to avoid pitfalls. You'll become familiar with the Node.js development model by learning how to handle files and build simple web applications and then explore established and emerging Node.js web frameworks such as Express.js and Fastify. As you advance, you'll discover techniques for detecting problems in your applications, handling security concerns, and deploying your applications to the cloud. This recipe-based guide will help you to easily navigate through various core topics of server-side web application development with Node.js. By the end of this Node book, you'll be well-versed with core Node.js concepts and have gained the knowledge to start building performant and scalable Node.js applications.

Docker Hub provides a global repository of images. Throughout this chapter and Chapter 7, Working with Databases, we've pulled Docker images that were stored in the Docker Hub repository. This includes the Docker official Node.js image, which we used as a basis for our image in the Building a Docker container recipe in this chapter.

In this recipe, we're going to publish our fastify-microservice image to Docker Hub.

Getting ready

This recipe will use the image created in the previous recipe, Building a Docker container.

If you haven't completed that recipe, the code is available in the Packt GitHub repository (https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Node.js-14-Cookbook) in the Chapter11/fastify-microservice directory.

How to do it…

In this recipe, we're going to sign up for a Docker Hub account and publish our fastify-microservice image to Docker Hub:
