A php, mysql, node, nginx and mailcatcher enabled local dev environment using docker.
Add the following to your hosts file.
127.0.0.1 docker-dev-env.test
From the project root directory run docker-compose up.
Browse to http://docker-dev-env.test:8080/ and you should see It works!.
To ssh into one of the containers, e.g. the php container
run docker ps to get a list of containers.
Find the name of the container you wish to ssh into. E.g. docker-dev-env_php_1 and run docker exec -it docker-dev-env_php_1 bash to connect to the container and run bash.
If using mailcatcher for emails, any sent emails will be viewable at http://docker-dev-env.test:1080
If not using docker-dev-env.test as your development domain, update the docker/nginx.conf file with your development domain.
server_name .docker-dev-env.test
Don't forget to update your hosts file with your development domain.
To change the database name, user or password update the applicable values in docker-compose.override.yml with the desired values.
The defaults are as follows:
MYSQL_DATABASE: docker-dev-env-db
MYSQL_PASSWORD: docker-dev-env-db-password
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: docker-dev-env-db-root-password
MYSQL_USER: docker-dev-env-user
To change the port nginx listens on update docker-compose.yml to reference the new port number.
E.g.
To listen on port 8181 change the below
ports:
- "8080:80"
to
ports:
- "8181:80"
When changing an environment variable you must rebuild the php container before running docker-compose up.
docker-compose build --no-cache php
