cannot connect to redis container from app container

I follow the django channels tutorial to build a simple chat app. https://channels.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorial/part_1.html , it can work on my local machine with redis without docker.

then now i want to put it into docker containers by docker compose file, but seems app cannot connect to redis container, i already try and google for two days, but seems all methods cannot work.

so want to ask for help here

folder structure

my_project
  - mysite(django app)
     - ... somefolder and files
  - docker-compose.yml
  - Dockfile
  - requirements.txt

docker-compose.yml

version: '3'

services:
  app:
    build:
      # current directory
      context: .
    ports:
      #host to image
      - "8000:8000"
    volumes:
      # map directory to image, which means if something changed in
      # current directory, it will automatically reflect on image,
      # don't need to restart docker to get the changes into effect
      - ./mysite:/mysiteRoot/mysite
    command: >
      sh -c "
             python3 manage.py makemigrations &&
             python3 manage.py migrate &&
             python3 manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000"

    depends_on:
      - redis

  redis:

You should change :

CHANNEL_LAYERS = {
    'default': {
        'BACKEND': 'channels_redis.core.RedisChannelLayer',
        'CONFIG': {
            "hosts": [('0.0.0.0', 6379)],
        },
    },
}

to 

CHANNEL_LAYERS = {
    'default': {
        'BACKEND': 'channels_redis.core.RedisChannelLayer',
        'CONFIG': {
            "hosts": [('redis', 6379)],
        },
    },
}

in your Django settings file.

When you set up containers from compose they are all connected to the default network created by compose. redis is in this case the DNS name of redis container and will be resolved to container ip automatically
