Docker compose error to connect postgres database with Node API - node.js

Question

I am having the connection error with the docker-composer when I try to access a postgres database through an API in Node.
I'm using Sequelize as ORM to acess the database. But I'dont know what happened.
docker-compose.yml:
version: '3.5'
services:
api-service:
build:
context: .
dockerfile: ./api-docker.dockerfile
image: api-service
container_name: api-service
restart: always
env_file: .env
environment:
- NODE_ENV=$NODE_ENV
ports:
- ${PORT}:3000
volumes:
- .:/home/node/api
- node_modules:/home/node/api/node_modules
depends_on:
- postgres-db
networks:
- api-network
command: npm run start:dev
postgres-db:
expose:
- ${PORT_SERVICE}
ports:
- ${PORT_SERVICE}:5432
restart: always
env_file: .env
volumes:
- pgReportData:/var/lib/postgresql/data
environment:
POSTGRES_USER: ${USER_SERVICE}
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: ${PASSWORD_SERVICE}
POSTGRES_DB: ${DATABASE_SERVICE}
networks:
- api-network
container_name: postgres-db
image: postgres:10
networks:
api-network:
driver: bridge
volumes:
pgReportData:
driver: local
node_modules:
.env:
NODE_ENV=development
PORT=30780
HOST_SERVICE=postgres-db
DATABASE_SERVICE=base
USER_SERVICE=user
PASSWORD_SERVICE=password
DIALECT=postgres
PORT_SERVICE=5444
api-docker.dockerfile:
FROM node:12
WORKDIR /src
COPY . .
COPY --chown=node:node . .
USER node
RUN npm install
EXPOSE $PORT
ENTRYPOINT ["npm", "run", "start:dev"]
And when I run:
docker-compose up
I'm getting this error:
Any ideia?
Can someone help me ??

If node is the only app that connects to postgre-db you can remove the networks, and expose the postgredb running port (5432). To connect to the db you can simply use the container name as host.
Connection String: "postgres://YourUserName:YourPassword#postgres-db:5432/YourDatabase";
