Docker Compose setup to run php5.3, php5.6 or php7 with php-fpm via nginx and mysql.

Create the ultimate development environment.

Install Docker and docker-compose. On Windows 10 install Docker Toolbox and disable Hyper-V.

• The webroot is at ./app/web
• You can put initial MySQL dump to the ./mysql/dump directory, it will be applied at the db container build. Format *.sql or *.sql.gz. Use dump.sql.example as an example.
• The MySQL data will be stored at the ./mysql/databases directory. So data will be persistent between docker-compose runs.
• The MySQL root password is at docker-compose.yml
• Database access is host: db user: root password: (password from docker-compose.yml) database name: (name from dump in ./mysql/dump)

• On Linux.
  • git clone https://github.com/soft-industry/docker-compose-php.git
  • cd docker-compose-php
  • docker-compose build
  • docker-compose up -d
• On Windows 10.
  • Place the project within the Users directory
  • Open Docker quickstart terminal
  • Using command prompt navigate to the project directory
  • Run docker-compose build and docker-compose up -d as usual

By default the setup creates a php5.6 environment, see docker-compose-php-7.yml how to use php7.

• On Linux.
  • Open url http://localhost:8000
• On Windows 10.
  • In the Docker quickstart terminal run docker-machine ls
  • Open the ip of your docker machine with port 8000.

• docker-compose exec db bash will open shell on the running db container.
• docker-compose stop will stop running containers.
• docker-compose rm db will erase built db container. So when you run docker-compose up it will be built again, and the initial dump will apply.
• $ docker exec some-mysql-contaner sh -c 'exec mysqldump -uroot -p"$MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD" db_name' > /some/path/on/your/host/db_name.sql will make dump from some-mysql-contaner and database db_name into local file.
