A basic LAMP stack environment built using Docker Compose. It consists of the following:
- PHP
- Apache
- MySQL
- phpMyAdmin
- Redis
As of now, we have several different PHP versions. Use appropriate php version as needed:
- 5.4.x
- 5.6.x
- 7.1.x
- 7.2.x
- 7.3.x
- 7.4.x
- 8.0.x
- 8.1.x
- Clone this repository on your local computer
- configure .env as needed
- Run the
docker-compose up -d.
git clone https://github.com/sprintcube/docker-compose-lamp.git
cd docker-compose-lamp/
cp sample.env .env
// modify sample.env as needed
docker-compose up -d
// visit localhostYour LAMP stack is now ready!! You can access it via http://localhost.
This Docker Stack is build for local development and not for production usage.
This package comes with default configuration options. You can modify them by creating .env file in your root directory.
To make it easy, just copy the content from sample.env file and update the environment variable values as per your need.
There are following configuration variables available and you can customize them by overwritting in your own .env file.
PHPVERSION Is used to specify which PHP Version you want to use. Defaults always to latest PHP Version.
PHP_INI
Define your custom php.ini modification to meet your requirments.
DOCUMENT_ROOT
It is a document root for Apache server. The default value for this is ./www. All your sites will go here and will be synced automatically.
APACHE_DOCUMENT_ROOT
Apache config file value. The default value for this is /var/www/html.
VHOSTS_DIR
This is for virtual hosts. The default value for this is ./config/vhosts. You can place your virtual hosts conf files here.
Make sure you add an entry to your system's
hostsfile for each virtual host.
APACHE_LOG_DIR
This will be used to store Apache logs. The default value for this is ./logs/apache2.
For Apple Silicon Users: Please select Mariadb as Database. Oracle doesn't build their SQL Containers for the arm Architecure
DATABASE
Define which MySQL or MariaDB Version you would like to use.
MYSQL_INITDB_DIR
When a container is started for the first time files in this directory with the extensions .sh, .sql, .sql.gz and
.sql.xz will be executed in alphabetical order. .sh files without file execute permission are sourced rather than executed.
The default value for this is ./config/initdb.
MYSQL_DATA_DIR
This is MySQL data directory. The default value for this is ./data/mysql. All your MySQL data files will be stored here.
MYSQL_LOG_DIR
This will be used to store Apache logs. The default value for this is ./logs/mysql.
Apache is configured to run on port 80. So, you can access it via http://localhost.
By default following modules are enabled.
- rewrite
- headers
If you want to enable more modules, just update
./bin/phpX/Dockerfile. You can also generate a PR and we will merge if seems good for general purpose. You have to rebuild the docker image by runningdocker-compose buildand restart the docker containers.
You can connect to web server using docker-compose exec command to perform various operation on it. Use below command to login to container via ssh.
docker-compose exec webserver bashThe installed version of php depends on your .envfile.
By default following extensions are installed. May differ for PHP Versions <7.x.x
- mysqli
- pdo_sqlite
- pdo_mysql
- mbstring
- zip
- intl
- mcrypt
- curl
- json
- iconv
- xml
- xmlrpc
- gd
If you want to install more extension, just update
./bin/webserver/Dockerfile. You can also generate a PR and we will merge if it seems good for general purpose. You have to rebuild the docker image by runningdocker-compose buildand restart the docker containers.
phpMyAdmin is configured to run on port 8080. Use following default credentials.
http://localhost:8080/
username: root
password: tiger
Xdebug comes installed by default and it's version depends on the PHP version chosen in the ".env" file.
Xdebug versions:
PHP <= 7.3: Xdebug 2.X.X
PHP >= 7.4: Xdebug 3.X.X
To use Xdebug you need to enable the settings in the ./config/php/php.ini file according to the chosen version PHP.
Example:
# Xdebug 2
#xdebug.remote_enable=1
#xdebug.remote_autostart=1
#xdebug.remote_connect_back=1
#xdebug.remote_host = host.docker.internal
#xdebug.remote_port=9000
# Xdebug 3
#xdebug.mode=debug
#xdebug.start_with_request=yes
#xdebug.client_host=host.docker.internal
#xdebug.client_port=9003
#xdebug.idekey=VSCODE
Xdebug VS Code: you have to install the Xdebug extension "PHP Debug". After installed, go to Debug and create the launch file so that your IDE can listen and work properly.
Example:
VERY IMPORTANT: the pathMappings depends on how you have opened the folder in VS Code. Each folder has your own configurations launch, that you can view in .vscode/launch.json
{
"version": "0.2.0",
"configurations": [
{
"name": "Listen for Xdebug",
"type": "php",
"request": "launch",
// "port": 9000, // Xdebug 2
"port": 9003, // Xdebug 3
"pathMappings": {
// "/var/www/html": "${workspaceFolder}/www" // if you have opened VSCODE in root folder
"/var/www/html": "${workspaceFolder}" // if you have opened VSCODE in ./www folder
}
}
]
}Now, make a breakpoint and run debug.
Tip! After theses configurations, you may need to restart container.
It comes with Redis. It runs on default port 6379.
We are happy if you want to create a pull request or help people with their issues. If you want to create a PR, please remember that this stack is not built for production usage, and changes should be good for general purpose and not overspecialized.
Please note that we simplified the project structure from several branches for each php version, to one centralized master branch. Please create your PR against master branch.
Thank you!
We want to empower developers to quickly create creative Applications. Therefore we are providing an easy to set up a local development environment for several different Frameworks and PHP Versions. In Production you should modify at a minimum the following subjects:
- php handler: mod_php=> php-fpm
- secure mysql users with proper source IP limitations
