About this repo

The main purpose of this project is to simplify the single server deployment migration of an HTTPS LAMP stack by leveraging docker container official images.

This repo contains a basic docker compose definition and resources for deploying an HTTPS LAMP (Linux, Apache, MariaDB, PHP) stack on docker containers. It is used on Synapp project deployments, including production environments.

I've tried this stuff on CentOS 7 and Debian 9 AWS EC2 AMIs, and DigitalOcean Debian 10 Droplets. So far no issues.

Usage

First you need to set up a host machine with docker and docker compose (You can go to https://docs.docker.com/get-started/ to figure out how). After that, complete these actions:

• (optional) Build a customized docker image from the latest official php-fpm image to enable the desired php extensions (docker build -t redux-php-fpm:latest redux-php-fpm).
• Ensure your /var/lib/mysql files are present on db-data folder. If you leave the folder empty, the volume will be populated with a freshly initialized MariaDB deployment so you can also manually run your app's DDL and DB init scripts.
• Ensure your application folder (e.g. synapp) is present on www-data folder, built and configured as described on the app's main repo.
• Ensure your server public certificate, private key, and ca-bundle are present on redux-httpd/certificates folder
• Make sure /redux-mariadb/mariadb.env is created and populated with the env vars defined on /redux-mariadb/mariadb.env.template.
• Make sure /redux-httpd/httpd.env is created and populated with the env vars defined on /redux-httpd/httpd.env.template.

When all of the above is done, deploy using docker-compose up.

Change Log

• See CHANGELOG.md

Known Issues

• mariadb docker image is known not to work well with data on docker volumes on Windows. Use a Linux VM docker host instead.

Requirements and dependencies

• Docker and docker-compose version 2 or greater.

TODO

• Use this project as a base project for cloud build and deploy a fresh app directly from the repo's latest final release.

About synapp project

This project was completed on 2012 during an Erasmus internship on Akademia Gorniczo-Hutnicza University of Science an Technology (Krakow), under the supervision of Professor Bipin Indurkhya at AGH-UST's Computer Science Department and Professor Juan Carlos Burguillo Rial at the Telematics Engineering Department of Universidade de Vigo.

Its purpose is to present an experiment consisting on a series of crowd-sourcing related activities through an online web platform for exploring and developing its users' cognitive skills related with the creative process.
