FastAPI container fails to connect to PostgreSQL.
However, the PostgreSQL container is running well and accessible.
I don’t know why this problem is happening.
Here is gist link of Dockerfile, docker-compose.yaml and log when docker-compose is run.

The python container should connect on
postgres:5432not localhost. To the web container, localhost is itself, not the physical host running dockerI changed host to
postgres:5432, but python made an error.sqlalchemy.exc.OperationalError: (psycopg2.OperationalError) could not translate host name "postgres" to address: Temporary failure in name resolutionSorry, I misread your compose file. It should be the name of the PG container, so
db:5432Thanks!
I also added
depends_on: - dbto docker-compose.yaml and fixed the issue!
