Since CakePHP apps require MySQL PDO to be installed, I found this to be a very time-consuming. I spent around 5 hours to get this properly configured. CakePHP requires the following:
- Apache Module: Rewrite: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_rewrite.html
- Apache Module: Headers: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_headers.html
- PHP Module: MySQL PDO: http://php.net/manual/en/pdo.installation.php, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13375061/installing-pdo-driver-on-mysql-linux-server
This image's parent is the latest PHP/Apache image. See more at https://hub.docker.com/_/php/.
Here's a Dockerfile that will work for your CakePHP Application.
FROM marcellodesales/php-apache-cakephp-mysql
ADD . /var/www/html
# In case you need write permissions in a given directory, do it here
RUN mkdir /var/www/html/api/tmp && chmod 777 /var/www/html/api/tmp
CMD ["apache2-foreground"]
After that, just perform a regular build:
docker build -t myCakePhpApp .Then you simply run your app!
docker run -ti myCakePhpApp
