Drop Fabrik

"Drop Fabrik" is configuration of Docker to help development more speedy for Drupal. You will be able to build a Drupal environment on Docker in 5 to 10 minutes with the following steps. And you can also deploy the extactly same environment to the cloud service such as AWS.

Overview

Example configuration includes the following containers:

Container	Service name	Image	Exposed port
Nginx Proxy	nginx-proxy	jwilder/nginx-proxy	80
Nginx	web	nginx
MariaDB	db	mariadb	3306
PHP-FPM 5.6 / 7.0 / 7.1	php	blauerberg/drupal-php
mailhog	mailhog	mailhog/mailhog	8025 (HTTP server)

Prerequisites

• Lastest version of Docker for MAC on macOS Sierra
• Lastest version of Docker for Windows on Windows 10
• Lastest version of Docker engine on linux
• If you use Docker for Windows, enable shared drives

Getting started

Start containers

First, get a configurations.

$ git clone https://github.com/blauerberg/dropfabrik.git
$ cd dropfabrik

Next, create a directory to mount source code of Drupal.

$ mkdir -p volumes/drupal

download & extract Drupal source code.

# Note: replace "X.Y.Z" in below to  Drupal's version you'd like to use.
$ curl https://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/drupal-X.Y.Z.tar.gz | tar zx --strip=1 -C volumes/drupal

If you use macOS, highly recommend using docker-sync to avoid performance problems. please see Use docker-sync.

create & start containers.

$ docker-compose up -d

if you use Linux host, you have to fix permissions for your Drupal directory with:

$ docker-compose exec php chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/sites/default

Access your Drupal site.

$ open http://localhost # or open http://localhost on your browser.

Install Drupal

Credentials of database is configured in docker-compose.override.yml. Default value is below:

• Database Name: drupal
• Username: drupal
• Password: drupal

Please see also "Environment Variables" section in https://hub.docker.com/_/mariadb/

In this container set, nginx, mariadb and php-fpm run on the separate containers. Therefore, please note that hostname of database server when installing Drupal is db, not localhost.

Instead of the installation wizard, you can install Drupal using Drush as follows:

$ docker-compose exec php drush -y --root="/var/www/html" site-install standard --site-name="Drupal on Docker" --account-name="drupal" --account-pass="drupal" --db-url="mysql://drupal:drupal@db/drupal"
$ docker-compose exec php drush -y config-set system.theme admin bartik

Stop containers

$ docker-compose stop

Other tips

Access inside the containers

You should use docker-compose exec instead of ssh.

$ docker-compose exec {Service name} /bin/bash
# ex. docker-compose exec php /bin/bash

Use Drush

Drush is installed in php container.

$ docker-compose exec php drush st

Restore database from existing site

Put gzipped sql dump as initdb.sql.gz and uncomment below line at docker-compose.override.yml. It will be loaded by mariadb and will restore once only at generating the container.

- ./initdb.sql.gz:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/initdb.sql.gz

Connect database

Via Drush:

$ docker-compose exec php drush sql-cli

Database container is exposing port 3306 on 127.0.0.1. So you can access database in the container from GUI application on Host OS such as MysqlWorkbench, Sequel Pro.

Use docker-sync

If you use macOS, highly recommend installing docker-sync as follows to avoid performance problems.

Also you have to some changes into docker-compose.override.yml.

• comment out volumes_from block (2 places):

# - ./volumes/drupal:/var/www/html:cached

• uncomment drupal_source block (2 places):

# Replace volume to this to use docker-sync for mac OS users to resolve performance issue.
# See also: https://github.com/docker/for-mac/issues/77
- drupal_source:/var/www/html:rw

• uncomment volumes block at the bottom

volumes:
  drupal_source:
    external: true

Start the synchronization with docker-sync command

$ docker-sync start

Finally, start container in new shell.

$ docker-compose up -d

Alternatively, you can also run docker-sync start and docker-compose up together.

$ docker-sync-stack start

Please see also: https://github.com/EugenMayer/docker-sync/wiki

Deploy to production environment (example)

You can also deploy this container set to production environment such as Amazon EC2. For example, to deploy Amazon EC2, you can following instruction below.

First, create your docker engine on Amazon EC2.

$ docker-machine create --driver amazonec2 --amazonec2-instance-type t2.large --amazonec2-region ap-northeast-1 --amazonec2-zone c dropfabrik

Note: in default, this instance use security group named docker-machine and it will be rejected any http traffic. So you have to change setting of the security group to accept http.

And Then, set the environment variables to use remote docker engine.

eval $(docker-machine env dropfabrik)

Next, download your drupal code and database dump.

$ git clone https://github.com/blauerberg/dropfabrik.git

# download your drupal code.
$ mkdir volumes
$ git clone {YOUR_GIT_REPO_URI} volumes/drupal
# copy your database dump of existing site as mysql/initdb.sql.gz
$ cp /some/path/your_site_db.sql.gz mysql/initdb.sql.gz

or download vanila drupal to launch new site

$ mkdir -p volumes/drupal
$ curl https://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/drupal-X.Y.Z.tar.gz | tar zx --strip=1 -C volumes/drupal
# if you want to install drupal with your language, you have to create sites/default/files/translation dir.
$ mkdir -p volumes/drupal/sites/default/files/translations

Finally, build your docker image and deploy it.

$ docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.production.yml up --build

Note: Note: docker-compose.production.yml is an example configuration for simple use case.
