[google-cloud-sql-discuss] Unable to connect to Cloud-SQL proxy Docker Image

Hi there,

Have been struggling with this issue for the past three days and even put a support ticket forward but not much progress, so far its been quite frustrating. Enough of my ranting, here goes the issue / scenario:

I have a NodeJS application with postgres database which I put in a docker container called `api`. I have a docker-compose file that automatically builds my applications in a docker container and then push them into GCP  VM. So have got 1) Api docker image, 2) db docker image which was built using Cloud_SQL Proxy image, 3) redis 4) nginx - all docker images. 

When I use just my local postgres database placed in a docker container under the base docker image `postgres:9.6.3-alpine`. I was able to connect fine to my NodeJS application but keep getting `Connection Refused` when I use `gcr.io/cloudsql-docker/gce-proxy:1.10` cloud-sql image.

So the issue is, my NodeJS application (api docker) is unable to connect to the `db` cloud_sql docker image. Not sure how to best resolve this, please assist. Kindly suggest if there are more feasible way to connect to my postgres inside from a docker container (api docker) on GCP.

Thanks in anticipation,

Ife
