Dockerized Symfony3+

Docker containers configured for you to start developing your Symfony3 applications.

What's Included?

• PHP 7.1, Apache2, MySQL, Git, Nano, Composer, Symfony Installer
• opcache, apcu, intl, XDebug, pdo_mysql, mcrypt, and more...

Requirements

You need to have Git, and Docker natively installed on your computer.

Installation / Setup

Clone this repository somewhere in your computer, for this example i'm cloning it to ~/Developer/ directory

$ cd ~/Developer
$ git clone https://github.com/muzfr7/DockerizedSymfony3.git

Rename cloned repository with something like your project name and cd into it, in my case I am renaming it to blog

mv DockerizedSymfony3 blog
cd blog

Build and Start Containers

It will take a moment for the first time to build and setup image, subsequent builds from the same image should be faster

$ docker-compose up -d

List Containers

Note, use mysql container name 'blog_db_1' as mysql hostname in blog/www/app/config/parameters.yml file

$ cd ~/Developer/blog
$ docker-compose ps

        Name                      Command               State            Ports          
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
blog_db_1    docker-entrypoint.sh mysqld      Up      0.0.0.0:33060->3306/tcp 
blog_web_1   docker-php-entrypoint apac ...   Up      0.0.0.0:8080->80/tcp 

Access Container

Here blog_web_1 refers to php:7.1-apache container.

$ docker exec -it blog_web_1 bash

Create New Project

While in blog_web_1 container shell, create a new symfony project

$ cd /var/www/html
$ symfony new symfony-project

Move all files off symfony-project back to /var/www/html directory, and finaly remove symfony-project directory

$ cd symfony-project
$ mv -f * ../
$ cd ..
$ rm -rf symfony-project

Running

Now head to your browser on your host computer, and navigate to

http://localhost:8080

Directory Structure
