docker-lamp-base

Base docker environment for LAMP projects

How to use

This docker based environment can be used for local development without installing the needed applications locally. Instead only docker and docker-compose and some configuration is required.

Structure

Basically there are two main folders: build and www. The build folder consists of dockerfiles and configurations for every application. The www folder is the folder that should contain your application code. Also it serves as a share between all applications.

How to setup / use

• Install docker and docker-compose
• Go into the root folder and run sh scripts/install/create-env.sh. This creates your .env file with additional data.
• Optional additional configuration:
  • To rename the containers, change COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME in .env.
  • To persist mysql data, uncomment volumes of mysql in docker-compose.yml.
• Build everything folder with docker-compose build
• Start it with sh scripts/start.sh. (Or use command docker-compose up, use the parameter -d to run ist in background.)
• Stop with sh scripts/stop.sh or use command docker-compose down
• (To check the running docker container use docker ps. When there are docker container running, you will see a list that shows information about every container. You can use the container name to execute commands.
• Connect with sh scripts/ssh.sh to your running server container.)
• Copy your app content into the www folder. If you use composer, the composer.json file should be inside this folder too. The www folder is your app root folder.
• If you use composer, and run composer install (in ssh connection), otherwise sh scripts/install/composer-install.sh. This installs your dependencies.
• If you use oforge and want to rebuild the templates, run sh scripts/build-templates.sh
