Example stack.yml for mybb:

services:
  mybb:
    image: mybb/mybb:latest
    volumes:
    - ${PWD}/mybb:/var/www/html:rw

  nginx:
    image: nginx:mainline-alpine
    ports:
    - published: 8080
      target: 80
    volumes:
    - ${PWD}/nginx:/etc/nginx/conf.d:ro
    - ${PWD}/mybb:/var/www/html:ro

  postgresql:
    environment:
      POSTGRES_DB: mybb
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD: changeme
      POSTGRES_USER: mybb
    image: postgres:14-alpine
    volumes:
    - ${PWD}/postgres/data:/var/lib/postgresql/data:rw

version: '3.8'

Note, you'll also need a virtual host configuration file for the provided nginx container. You can find a very basic example here. Create this file as nginx/default.conf, respective to the location of your docker-compose.yml file.

You should note that static content such as images and JavaScript or CSS files must be cross-mounted between the mybb and nginx containers - as PHP-FPM is not capable of serving those natively.

If you wish to run this image and preserve any updated lang or config files, you can add the following flag:

docker run mybb/mybb --skip-old-files php-fpm

or, within your compose file, specify the following command argument:

services:
  mybb:
    image: mybb/mybb:latest
    command: --skip-old-files php-fpm
    volumes:
    - ${PWD}/mybb:/var/www/html:rw

    ...

You must provide four build-time arguments when building this Docker image; BUILD_AUTHORS, BUILD_DATE, BUILD_SHA512SUM and BUILD_VERSION.

docker build \
  --build-arg BUILD_AUTHORS="Kane 'kawaii' Valentine <[email protected]>" \
  --build-arg BUILD_DATE=$(date -u +'%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ') \
  --build-arg BUILD_SHA512SUM=be3bdec9617050abbabbfcfa40e9cd145db3a57ae70e740bc62d807b04c08a5fa42ac690a5502c344f0f7452276aa0f3802501e6d62fa76edc64ac36da25b3cd \
  --build-arg BUILD_VERSION=1830 \
  --tag mybb/mybb:1.8 \
  --tag mybb/mybb:1.8.30 \
  --tag mybb/mybb:latest \
  $PWD

The resulting image can then be pushed to the mybb/mybb Docker Hub repository:

docker push mybb/mybb:1.8.30
