This project is my Docker setup for a typical Laravel project.
The approach for this setup is to have the Docker setup-related files outside the main codebase. This allows me to have a unified Docker setup for all my projects using this main repository. I consider this as my Docker-based development environment. And, this also allows me to have Docker files inside the main source folder which is project-specific and might also go to production.
I have a q
sh file which has some shortcuts for easy use of the docker commands. I used q because this is the most easy to reach character for me and with just that one alphabet, I would be able to get into the commands that the file exposes.
Clone the repository with your project name using the following command
git clone https://github.com/amitavroy/docker-setup.git my-blog
Once this is done, we will delete the README.md file from inside the src
directory and using the composer service to create a new Laravel project.
rm src/README.md
./q composer create-project laravel/laravel .
This project keeps a node container up with npm run dev
command. This means any changes that you do to the CSS or JS file would automatically reflect through vite.
However, for this to happen, you have to make a small change to your vite
config.
Add this after the plugins
array.
