DCMP Stack

A Docker, Caddy (v1), Mariadb & PHP-FPM starting template for your PHP projects

Getting started

1. cp docker/db/.env.example docker/db/.env
2. Optionally add an initial SQL file to the docker/db/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d directory
3. Run docker-compose up app web db
4. Visit 127.0.0.1:8080 in your web browser

Configuring the Caddy server

All Caddy server configuration is in the file docker/caddy/Caddyfile See the Caddy V1 documentation for further configuration options

Configuring the database

The default database credentials are copied from the file docker/db/.env.example during the first step of Getting Started. You can change the values to suit your project. More information about these values can be found at the Mariadb docker hub page

MYSQL_DATABASE=app
MYSQL_USER=user
MYSQL_PASSWORD=password
MYSQL_RANDOM_ROOT_PASSWORD=true

Running your code

This base template should get you running with most PHP applications. The PHP extensions: gd, iconv & pdo (mysql) are installed from the start, should you need to you can configure more extensions in the file docker/php/Dockerfile.

Now just add your code to the src folder.

Running a Laravel app

Before Getting Started, run the command docker-compose run composer composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel . to install the latest version of Laravel.

Then update the file docker/caddy/Caddyfile to point the root to the public directory

0.0.0.0

root /var/www/html/public

fastcgi / app:9000 php {
	root /var/www/html/public
}

rewrite {
    regexp .*
    ext /
    to /index.php?{query}
}

gzip

tls off

Don't forget to update your applications src/.env file to match the database configuration values you set in docker/db/.env.
