This project is designed to allow a developer to quickly get a Drupal environment setup for both local development and production on a single server.
The project uses the fig to orchestrate docker containers so that Drupal works with PHP-FPM/nginx and MySQL database backend.
Use git clone --recursive to download the project because of the Drupal submodule.
Use fig up -d build and start the project. (If you modify anything in the containers folder, then you should run fig build)
The Drupal website should be available at (http://localhost/) You'll want to go to (http://localhost/install.php) for the first time loading the site.
If you want to top the containers then run fig stop. If you want to start it up again, use fig up -d.
This repository is intended for Drupal site building by add modules, themes and libraries to the respective directories. However, Drupal core could also be modified by replacing the drupal submodule with our own Drupal core.
Two scripts have can be used to use Drush (or other command line tools) in the PHP container.
The drush script can be used to run single drush commands on the PHP container. This should only be used for simple commands such as drush status because the script has know bugs when using " characters.
The explore script runs bash on the PHP container so that drush and a number of other useful commands can be run such as mysql.
