A Docker container for Laravel web apps
Docker-laravel is a LEMP image for running Laravel web applications.
It extends docker-base, which contains Supervisor for process supervision, and other basic utilities. It is loosely inspired by phusion/baseimage-docker.
All packages for running a Laravel web app are bundled into a single image, based on Ubuntu 16.04 server.
These services run with process supervision:
These packages are preinstalled:
1. Download the public Docker image from Dockerhub:
docker pull mtmacdonald/docker-laravel:version
2. Run the Docker image as a new Docker container:
docker run -d \ -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -p 3306:3306 \ -v /home/app:/share \ --restart=always \ --name=appname \ mtmacdonald/docker-laravel:version
Replace '/home/app' with the path to the Laravel application's root directory in the host. This directory is a shared volume and so can be used to access the application files in either the host or the container.
See the instructions in docker-base.
Laravel is not bundled in the Docker image. Laravel, or your own application, need to be installed manually:
In the container (see docker exec):
cd /share git clone https://github.com/laravel/laravel . composer install chmod -R guo+w storage cp .env.example .env php artisan key:generate
The XDebug PHP extension is installed but not enabled by default. To enable it:
phpenmod xdebug phpenmod -s cli xdebug
