Minimalist docker container to run a Laravel project with php7.2-fpm, nginx and mysql-5.7 with xdebug support.

This container was created to have a minimalist and easy-to-run docker container for laravel applications.

Before using this docker container, you should be sure to have Docker already installed on your system. Also, you need to install composer to create your Laravel project.

Clone this repository inside your Laravel's project folder (or one level above).

git clone https://github.com/deleonn/laravel-docker.git

Next, you need to editdocker-compose.override.yml to add your project path to both nginx and php volumes. This will sync your local code with docker.

[...]nginx:    volumes:        - ./path/to/project:/var/www/laravelphp:    volumes:        - ./path/to/project:/var/www/laravel

An additional but not necessary step, you need to navigate toimages/nginx/vhost.conf and replace theserver_name laravel.test; with your own server name (remember that you need to modify your HOSTS to map 127.0.0.1 to your server_name to access your project from the browser).

Finally, replace mysql environment variables with your own configuration.

  environment:    MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: root_password    MYSQL_DATABASE: my_database    MYSQL_USER: my_user    MYSQL_PASSWORD: my_password

To run your now dockerized laravel application, rundocker-compose up to start your docker services (Additionally, you can use the-d flag to run docker at the background).

And that's it. Navigate to laravel.test to see your project running.
