Docker environment for a Symfony4 project

Add to your project

Move the docker-compose.yml and the folder named phpdocker containing nginx and php-fpm config for it to the root of your Symfony4 project.

Ensure the webserver config on docker\nginx.conf is correct for your project. For instance, for Symfony4 it should look for the public/index.php, instead of the web/app.php from Symfony2 and Symfony3

Note: you may place the files elsewhere in your project. Make sure you modify the locations for the php-fpm dockerfile, the php.ini overrides and nginx config on docker-compose.yml if you do so.

How to run

Dependencies:

• Docker engine v1.13 or higher. Your OS provided package might be a little old, if you encounter problems, do upgrade. See https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation
• Docker compose v1.12 or higher. See docs.docker.com/compose/install

Once you're done, simply cd to your project and run docker-compose up -d. This will initialise and start all the containers, then leave them running in the background.

Docker compose cheatsheet

Note: you need to cd first to where your docker-compose.yml file lives.

• Start containers in the background: docker-compose up -d
• Start containers on the foreground: docker-compose up. You will see a stream of logs for every container running.
• Stop containers: docker-compose stop
• Kill containers: docker-compose kill
• View container logs: docker-compose logs
• Execute command inside of container: docker-compose exec SERVICE_NAME COMMAND where COMMAND is whatever you want to run. Examples: * Shell into the PHP container, docker-compose exec php-fpm bash * Run symfony console, docker-compose exec php-fpm bin/console * Open a mysql shell, docker-compose exec mysql mysql -uroot -pCHOSEN_ROOT_PASSWORD

Docker general cheatsheet

Note: these are global commands and you can run them from anywhere.

• To clear containers: docker rm -f $(docker ps -a -q)
• To clear images: docker rmi -f $(docker images -a -q)
• To clear volumes: docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -q)
• To clear networks: docker network rm $(docker network ls | tail -n+2 | awk '{if($2 !~ /bridge|none|host/){ print $1 }}')
