Laravel boilerplate

Version: 6.2.*

Requisites

• Docker
• Docker-compose

Project configuration

First, clone the docker project:

[https://github.com/LFTroya/laravel-docker.git]

Note: Clone the project at the same level of your project. Be careful, if you are using docker on windows. Make sure it is using Linux containers instead of Windows Container, otherwise, the configuration won't work.

Second, cd into laravel-docker directory, and execute docker-compose up -d. This will mount 4 containers: redis, postgres, nginx and app. Feel free to use all of them.

After docker-compose finished. Make sure the configuration is OK visiting [http://localhost:8001]. You should see the laravel home page.

Finally, configure laravel to use the configuration:

• Copy .env.example to .env
• Install dependencies composer install
• Generate key php artisan key:generate
• Update .env and setting connection to postgres

 DB_CONNECTION=pgsql
 DB_HOST=postgres
 DB_PORT=5432
 DB_DATABASE=postgres
 DB_USERNAME=root
 DB_PASSWORD=secret

That's all. You can now start developing your site!

Things to consider:

Make sure you don't have the following ports in use: 5432, 8001, 80 and 6379. To see if docker is using any of your ports, use docker ps

Composer is available inside of the container. If you want to access to it, you need to enter on it. On laravel-docker directory, execute docker-compose exec app bash. This follows the name of the services on docker-compose file.

Node and npm are also available on the container as composer.

Postgres creates an initial db to use postgres. The credentials are the following:

DB_HOST: postgres # Because the connection to the database will be internal on docker. Using internal dns names matching docker-compose
DB_USER: root
DB_PASSWORD: secret
DB_DATABASE: postgres
DB_DRIVER: pgsql
DB_PORT: 5432

Nginx configuration sites are available on nginx/sites

Redis credentials are:

DB_HOST: redis
DB_PORT: 6379
