minimal docker setup for PHP development (i.e. Laravel projects), it start from alpine images:
- nginx(1.13)
- php-fpm (8.1)
- mariadb (latest)
The idea is to keep all images really small and ready to run on small basic vps:
.. minidocker_nginx .. 21 MB
.. minidocker_mariadb_ .. 44 MB
.. minidocker_php-fpm .. 93 MB
copy and paste .env.example to .env and change as you need
COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME=minidocker
COMPOSE_FILE=docker-compose.yml
VIRTUAL_HOST=minidocker.local
EMAIL=me@minidocker.local
PROXY_NETWORK=nginx-proxy
MYSQL_BIND_PORT=33060
NGNIX_BIND_PORT=80
NGINX_TEMPLATE=docker/nginx/nginx.conf
LETSENCRYPT_HOST="${VIRTUAL_HOST}"
LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL="${EMAIL}"
DB_DATABASE=minidocker_db
DB_USERNAME=minidocker
DB_PASSWORD=minidocker
DB_ROOT_PASSWORD=root
- fork or download the repo
- then raise docker containers (nginx, php, mariadb)
docker-compose up -d
- then enter in php-fpm container
docker-compose exec php-fpm bash
- you can run a simple phpinfo()
mkdir public && echo '<?php phpinfo();' > /application/public/index.php && chown -R www-data.www-data /application/public/
then you can check if all is working using
- you can download, install and run laravel
rm /application/.gitkeep
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel /application
chown -R www-data.www-data /application
If you use laravel edit the default /application/.env to match your DB config ie:
...
DB_HOST=mariadb
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=minidocker_db
DB_USERNAME=minidocker
DB_PASSWORD=minidocker
...You should be ready to develop your app in /application
You can define in application a "submodule" or just instance a new git project with your web application.
I also added a .env.prod as alternative to .env.example for "production" or "stage" servers.
It's useful for:
- use https instead http (with a real hostname... Let's Encrypt certificate etc..)
- use a different network for containers (I usually usa a nginx reverse proxy)
- different port mapping
