  • vim .env
    • change DB_HOST=mysql, password too
• add to /etc/hosts -> 127.0.0.1 project-1.test
• git clone https://github.com/Laradock/laradock.git
• cd laradock
  • cp env-example .env
  • vim .env
    • change the root password for mysql
• cd laradock/nginx/sites
  • cp laravel.conf.example project_1.conf (name isn't important other than for organization)
  • vim project_1.conf
    • make two changes:

    server_name project-1.test;
    root /var/www/project-1/public;
    

• cd laradock
  • docker-compose up -d nginx mysql phpmyadmin
  • docker-compose exec workspace bash to enter container shell
    • cd project-1
    • artisan key:generate
    • exit back to local shell
• cd project-1
  • sudo chmod -R 777 storage bootstrap/cache, some folders need to be writable to web server user
• cd laradock
  • docker-compose exec mysql bash enter mysql container
    • mysql -uroot -p enter password
      • mysql> create database project1;
      • mysql> exit
    • exit
• cd project-1
  • vim .env
    • change DB_DATABASE=project1
• cd laradock
  • docker-compose exec workspace bash
    • container> cd project-1
    • container> artisan migrate

Result:

• http://laravel-blog.test/ should work to the test page
• http://laravel-blog.test:8081/ should work to phpmyadmin
