- git clone
- add cloned repository directory to Docker -> Settings -> Resources -> File Sharing
- docker-compose up -d
To get started, make sure you have Docker installed on your system, and then clone this repository.
Next, navigate in your terminal to the directory you cloned this, and spin up the containers for the web server by running docker-compose up -d --build site
.
After that completes, follow the steps from the src/README.md file to get your Laravel project added in (or create a new blank one).
Bringing up the Docker Compose network with site
instead of just using up
, ensures that only our site's containers are brought up at the start, instead of all of the command containers as well. The following are built for our web server, with their exposed ports detailed:
- nginx -
:8080
- mysql -
:3306
- php -
:9000
Three additional containers are included that handle Composer, NPM, and Artisan commands without having to have these platforms installed on your local computer. Use the following command examples from your project root, modifying them to fit your particular use case.
docker-compose run --rm composer update
docker-compose run --rm npm run dev
docker-compose run --rm artisan migrate
By default, whenever you bring down the Docker network, your MySQL data will be removed after the containers are destroyed. If you would like to have persistent data that remains after bringing containers down and back up, do the following:
- Create a
mysql
folder in the project root, alongside thenginx
andsrc
folders. - Under the mysql service in your
docker-compose.yml
file, add the following lines:
volumes:
- ./mysql:/var/lib/mysql
