Dockerfile
for running Nginx HTTP server with PHP FPM:
FROM phpearth/php:7.3-nginx
Build Docker image and run Docker container:
docker build -t custom-php .
docker run --name custom-php-container -p 80:80 -d custom-php
To run a CLI PHP script:
docker run -it --rm -v `pwd`:/usr/src/myapp -w /usr/src/myapp phpearth/php php script.php
To install Composer:
FROM phpearth/php:7.3-nginx
RUN apk add --no-cache composer
To install PHPUnit:
FROM phpearth/php:7.3-nginx
RUN apk add --no-cache phpunit
To run OpenLiteSpeed web server:
FROM phpearth/php:7.3-litespeed
To run Lighttpd web server:
FROM phpearth/php:7.3-lighttpd
To install additional PHP extensions, you can use packages from the PHP.earth Alpine repository:
FROM phpearth/php:7.3-nginx
RUN apk add --no-cache php7.3-sodium php7.3-intl php7.3-pdo_mysql
or install them with pecl
:
apk add --no-cache php7.3-dev gcc g
pecl install {extension-name}
To configure extra php.ini: settings,
create application specific php.ini
and copy the file into docker image:
# php.ini
memory_limit = 512M
FROM phpearth/php:7.3-nginx
COPY php.ini $PHP_INI_DIR/conf.d/my-app.ini
In case you'd need an additional extension in the PHP.earth repository, open an issue.
Docker Stack is way of orchestration of Docker services and simplifies running multiple services of your application. In this example we'll run an Nginx web server with PHP 7.3 FPM with docker-compose.yml
file. In a new project directory create a Dockerfile
:
FROM phpearth/php:7.3-nginx
The docker-compose.yml
file:
version: '3.3'
services:
app:
image: my-dev-image
volumes:
- .:/var/www/html
ports:
- mode: host
target: 80
published: 80
The index.php
file:
<?php
phpinfo();
Finally we run:
# Initialize a new Swarm for development
docker swarm init
# Build above image
docker build -t my-dev-image -f Dockerfile .
# Deploy the above stack up and running
docker stack deploy -c docker-compose.yaml mystack
And there should be phpinfo()
output visible on http://localhost
. Make sure there isn't any other service listening on port 80 before running above command.
To use older versions PHP 7.0, 7.1, or 7.2 use Docker images with 7.0
, 7.1
, or 7.2
:
FROM phpearth/php:7.2-nginx
RUN apk add --no-cache composer
These Docker images include the latest PHP versions and packages for Alpine Linux via the 3rd party PHP.earth Alpine repository.
FROM alpine:3.8
ADD https://repos.php.earth/alpine/phpearth.rsa.pub /etc/apk/keys/phpearth.rsa.pub
RUN echo "https://repos.php.earth/alpine" >> /etc/apk/repositories \
&& apk add --no-cache php7.3
PHP.earth Alpine packages are prefixed with php7.3
, php7.2
, php7.1
, and php7.0
.
Images are automatically build on Docker Hub.
Docker Cloud and therefore Docker Hub also provides overriding and customization of various commands when building images automatically.
There are some hooks defined in the docker/hooks
folder:
hooks/build
- executed when building imagehooks/post_push
- executed after building image, used to push additional tags to Docker Hub.
Labels are neat way to expose additional metadata about particular Docker object. We use Label Schema when defining image labels:
build-date
- Date and time of the build. Defined asorg.label-schema.build-date=$BUILD_DATE
, where$BUILD_DATE
is set dynamically via abovehooks/build
scriptvcs-url
- Repository location on GitHub. Defined asorg.label-schema.vcs-url="https://github.com/phpearth/docker-php.git"
vcs-ref
- Reference to commit in Git repositoryschema-version
- Version of the Label Schema in use.vendor
- Vendor name of the image creators.name
