How to create an HTTPS server in Node.js using docker? - node.js

Question

I'm trying to create an HTTPS server using node.js and and docker. I have already created the certificates and configured the app. But I don't know how to run the image docker. I am trying this, but it is not working.
Does anyone know how to do this?
sudo docker run --name cont_docker -p 443:3333 --link my-mongo:my-mongo user/docker_app
I am not using docker-compose
---> EDIT <---
The container is not crashing. It is not responding. In the app I get 'couold not connect to server'. I think it is not binding the port
const express = require('express');
const getRootPath = require('../helpers/get-root-path.helper');
var fs = require('fs');
const https = require('https'); // REQUIRE HTTPS
const privateKey = fs.readFileSync('private/key/path', 'utf8');
const certificate = fs.readFileSync('cert/key/path', 'utf8');
let _express = null;
let _config = null;
let _router = null;
let _credentials = null;
class Server {
constructor({ config, router }) {
_router = router;
_config = config;
_credentials = { privateKey: privateKey, certificate: certificate } // ADD CREDENTIALS
_express = express();
}
/*
This methods returns a promisse that will be in charge of initate the server.
*/
start() {
_express.use(express.static(`${this.getRootPath(__dirname)}/public`))
_express.use(_router)
_express.engine('html', require('ejs').renderFile)
_express.set('view engine', 'html')
return new Promise(resolve => {
const server = https.createServer(this._credentials, _express)
server.listen(_config.port, () => {
console.log(`App running on port ${_config.port}`)
resolve()
})
})
}
getRootPath(path) {
return getRootPath(path)
}
}
module.exports = Server
---> APP.JS <---
const container = require('./src/startup/container')
const server = container.resolve("app")
const { db_host, db_database } = container.resolve("config")
const mongoose = require('mongoose')
mongoose.set("useCreateIndex", true)
mongoose
.connect(`mongodb://${db_host}/${db_database}`, { useUnifiedTopology: true, useNewUrlParser: true, useCreateIndex: true, useFindAndModify: false })
.then(response => {
console.log(`Connected to Mongo! Database name: "${response.connections[0].name}" on "${response.connections[0].host}"`)
server.start()
})
.catch(console.log)
