Local WordPress server setup with Docker

A local server setup for running WordPress with Docker

Requirements

• Docker
• mkcert for making locally-trusted development certificates.

Instructions

1. Copy .env.example to .env and edit your preferences.
2. Run the create-cert.sh script in the bin folder with sh create-script.sh commando. This script will create the certificates for your custom DOMAIN and place them in the certs folder.
3. Make sure your /etc/hosts file has a record for the used domains:

sudo nano /etc/hosts

Add your selected domain like this:

127.0.0.1 domain.local

4. Move to the root folder (where the docker-compose.yml file lives) and run docker-compose up --build to build your containers.
