Setup

• Clone this repository and de-gitify it (rm -r .git)
• Place a Symfony app in /symfony, either by symfony new app or by importing an existing project
• Run setup-file-permissions.sh to make Symfony app's var directory writeable by Apache using setfacl (if running under an OS that doesn't support setfacl, you may need to do this an alternative way. See https://symfony.com/doc/current/setup/file_permissions.html)
• Change your parameters.yml file to match the database settings, which you can do with environment variables (from .env file): database_name: "%env(MYSQL_DATABASE)%" database_user: "%env(MYSQL_USER)%" database_password: "%env(MYSQL_PASSWORD)%"
• docker-compose up -d

Includes

• Apache/PHP7.1
• MariaDB
• Composer

Expects a symfony app within /symfony directory

Running commands

Symfony commands can be run using the symfony container, e.g.

docker-compose exec symfony bin/console debug:router

Setting up an alias within your shell for docker-compose exec symfony php bin/console is a good idea.

Using Composer

Composer commands can be run within the composer service container:

docker-compose run composer info

Setting up an alias within your shell for docker-compose run composer is a good idea.

Using services

Elasticsearch is available at elasticsearch:9200 from any other container.

Redis is available at redis:5379 from any other container.

ELK stack is available at localhost:8080
