Updated Dockerfile to include optional migration commands and adjust formatting.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe Dockerfile has been reorganized to improve build efficiency and add an explicit startup command. Changes include moving COPY requirements.txt earlier for better caching, adding an apt-get upgrade step, reordering dependency installations, moving migration comments to an optional section, and introducing a CMD instruction to start the Django development server on 0.0.0.0:8000.

In `@Dockerfile`:
- Around line 18-20: The commented migration commands are in the wrong order and
include an action that shouldn't run during image build: ensure `RUN python
manage.py makemigrations` (which generates migration files) comes before `RUN
python manage.py migrate` if you ever enable them, but better yet remove or keep
only `RUN python manage.py migrate` and do not run `makemigrations` in the
Dockerfile — migration files should be created and committed in source control
instead of being generated during the Docker build.
- Around line 14-23: The Dockerfile currently copies the app and then runs as
root (see COPY . /app/backend and CMD ["python", "manage.py", "runserver",
"0.0.0.0:8000"]); add steps to create a non-root user and group, chown
/app/backend to that user, and switch to it with a USER instruction after the
COPY, ensuring file ownership and permissions are set before switching users so
the runtime process does not run as root.
- Line 23: The Dockerfile currently uses Django's development server via CMD
["python", "manage.py", "runserver", "0.0.0.0:8000"] which is not suitable for
production; replace this with a production WSGI server invocation (e.g., use
gunicorn) and point it at your project's WSGI module (adjust notes.wsgi to the
actual module path for your wsgi.py); update the Dockerfile CMD to launch
gunicorn (binding 0.0.0.0:8000, set appropriate worker count and timeout) and
ensure gunicorn is added to your production requirements and installed in the
image.
- Line 1: Remove the leading space before the Dockerfile instruction token so
the first line reads "FROM python:3.9" (i.e., delete the extra whitespace before
the FROM keyword) to match Dockerfile convention and avoid linter/readability
issues.

Remove the leading space before FROM.
Line 1 has a leading space ( FROM python:3.9). While Docker tolerates this, it's unconventional and likely unintentional. It can confuse linters and readers.

Container runs as root — add a non-root USER.
Trivy correctly flags that no USER instruction is specified, so the container runs as root. This is a security best practice for reducing the blast radius of container escapes.

Migration commands are in the wrong order.
If these comments are ever uncommented, makemigrations must run before migrate. Also, makemigrations generates migration files from model changes and typically shouldn't run inside a Docker build — migrations should be checked into source control.

runserver is Django's development server — not suitable for production.
Django's built-in runserver is single-threaded, not security-hardened, and explicitly documented as unsuitable for production. Use a production-grade WSGI server like Gunicorn:
-CMD ["python", "manage.py", "runserver", "0.0.0.0:8000"]
+CMD ["gunicorn", "--bind", "0.0.0.0:8000", "notes.wsgi:application"](Adjust notes.wsgi to the actual module path of your project's wsgi.py.)
