Installation

1. Copy all files from this repo to existing Symfony project:

   cp .env.dist /path/to/symfony/project/
   cp docker-compose.yml /path/to/symfony/project/
   cp -r docker /path/to/symfony/project/

   If your project has an existing GIT repository and .gitignore file, please concat:

   cat .gitignore >> /path/to/symfony/project/.gitignore

   Finally, switch to the symfony repository:

   cd /path/to/symfony/project/

2. Create a .env from the .env.dist file. Change the PROJECT_NAME variable and MySQL configuration if you wish. The name specified in the PROJECT_NAME will be used as vhost configuration.

   cp .env.dist .env

3. Build/run containers

   docker-compose build
   docker-compose up -d

   Note: If you have running services which takes :80 and :81 ports on local machine, please stop it to prevent docker reporting an error or change configuration in docker-compose.yml.

4. Update your system host file, where PROJECT_NAME is the name you specified in .env file:

   sudo echo "127.0.0.1 PROJECT_NAME" >> /etc/hosts

5. Prepare Symfony app

   1. Update app/config/parameters.yml

      # /path/to/symfony/project/app/config/parameters.yml
      parameters:
          database_host: db

   2. Composer install & create database

      $ docker-compose exec php bash
      $ composer install
      # Symfony2
      $ sf doctrine:database:create
      $ sf doctrine:schema:update --force
      $ sf doctrine:fixtures:load --no-interaction
      # Symfony3
      $ sf3 doctrine:database:create
      $ sf3 doctrine:schema:update --force
      $ sf3 doctrine:fixtures:load --no-interaction

6. Go to http://PROJECT_NAME/, where PROJECT_NAME is the name you specified in .env file.
