Edited from https://github.com/ger86/symfony-docker version -> https://github.com/ger86/symfony-docker/tree/fc89a899ac58fb1f6ee5758377c001ad4ef4f389

Description 📋

This is a complete stack for running Symfony 5 into Docker containers using docker-compose tool and with Certbot for the HTTPS certificate.

It is composed by 4 containers:

• nginx, acting as the webserver.
• php, the PHP-FPM container with the 7.4 PHPversion.
• mysql which is the MySQL database container with a MySQL 8.0 image.
• certbot generates the SSL certificate for your personal domain.

Installation ⌨

0. You need Docker and Docker-compose where you are going to launch this so, if you do not have it... click HERE or go to the end of this .md ^^

1. Clone this rep.

2. Check that the dir. data/certbot/www/.well-known exist. If it is not, create it 😀.

3. Edit init with your domain and an email.

4. Edit the docker-compose.yml with your DB information.

5. Run ./init.

6. Generate your Symfony proyect going to the php container docker-compose exec php bash. Then, go to symfony folder, /var/www/certbot/phpDir, and run composer create-project symfony/skeleton NAME_OF_THE_PROJECT. If you need to install Composer click HERE or go to the end of this .md ^^

7. Edit data/nginx/web.conf with your domain and your project dir.

8. Run docker-compose down

9. Run docker-compose up -d

10. The 4 containers are deployed:

Creating docker_db_1      ... done
Creating docker_php_1     ... done
Creating docker_nginx_1   ... done
Creating docker-certbot-1 ... done

11. Remember to edit the env file at the root of the Symfony's project. mysql is the name of the container that has your database:

DATABASE_URL=mysql://db_user_name:db_user_pass@mysql:3306/db_name?serverVersion=5.7

Docker's useful commands 📑

• Run Docker-compose: docker-compose up -d / docker-compose up

• Check Docker-compose's volumens status: docker-compose ps -a / docker-compose ps

• Check Docker's images: docker images -a

• Remove Docker's images: docker rmi -f imageID1 imageID2 ... (-f = force)

• Enter to a Docker's volumen: docker-compose exec VolumenID sh / docker-compose exec VolumenID bash

• Copy a file to the docker we want to: docker cp file docker_id:/dir

• Remove all dangling (not tagged or associated with a container) containers, volumes, networks and images: docker system prune

• Remove all unused containers and images with at least one container associated to them: docker system prune -a

• Shows all unused local images: docker images ls -f dangling=true

• Shows all unused local volumes: docker volume ls -f dangling=true

• Remove all local volumes not used by at least one container: docker volume prune

Installing Docker, Docker-compose and Composer 🛠

Adjust the installation to your OS. Here you have the one for EC2(AWS) with CentOS

• Docker installation

1. Download and install Docker: yum install docker

2. Gives permisions so you can run it everywhere: usermod -a -G docker ec2-user

3. Starts Docker's service: service docker start

4. Starts Docker's service each time you run the SO: chkconfig docker on

• Docker-compose installation

1. Download and install Docker-compose: curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.26.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

2. Make it executable from anywhere: chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

3. Makes an direct access for docker-compose: ln -s /usr/local/bin/docker-compose /usr/bin/docker-compose

4. Check the version and the installation: docker-compose --version

• Composer installation

1. Download and install Composer: curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

2. Moves the config file to the composer dir: mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

3. Makes an direct access of composer.phar file: ln -s /usr/local/bin/composer /usr/bin/composer
