docker-lamp

Docker use for create a LAMP configuration

This project slice in several containers :

• a base container which is used as a support for he others
• three containers for MySQL :
  • one for data
  • one for server
  • one for client
• several containers for web servers :
  • Nginx :
    • one container for the web server
    • one container for php5-fpm
  • Apache : one container contains apache and php5

For each container we have a Dockerfile and a build.sh script to build it.

For each container, except the base, we have a run.sh script for run the container.

base container

This container prepare the building of other container. Configure apt, select timezone and install some application.

mysql containers

data container

You must wonder why use a container for the data. This container is used for share the /var/lib/mysql directory with one or more mysql containers. We have just to use the --volumes-from argument with the name of the data container. As the folder /var/lib/mysql is indicate as a VOLUME in docker file, datas is persistent.

This container disappear of docker ps list after docker run because is already finished. But we can use it's volumes.

This container is named fferriere-mysql-data.

server container

It's the most important container of mysql containers. It contains the server (of course).

The run.sh script accept some arguments :

• -h, --help for show this help
• -r, --rerun for delete container and run a new container with same name
• -b, --bash=false run container with "-i -t --rm /bin/bash" arguments, incompatible with -d
• -d, --daemon=true run container as a daemon, incompatilble with -b
• -p, --bind-port=3306 bind localhost port (give by arg) with mysql port (3306)

This container is named fferriere-mysql-server.

By default, root as password only from host % and not from localhost.

client container

This container is optional. With, you can use a mysql-client compatible with the mysql-server.

The run.sh script of this container link and mount volumes of fferriere-mysql-server. So just with execute the script you are connected on root without password by socket protocol. Each arguments give on run script are send to docker run for launch command in container.

We don't use the ENTRYPOINT in Dockerfile, it replace by CMD. Like this we can use the command below for run bash in container.

./run.sh /bin/bash

aphpache container

This container run apache with php5 and xdebug (you must remove xdebug on prod).

The run.sh script accept some argument :

• -h, --help for show this help
• -P add the -P argument for docker run
• -p bind host web port with container web port (-p 80:80)
• --port=80 as -p but you can replace default web port on host
• -b, --bash=false run container with "-i -t --rm /bin/bash" arguments, incompatible with -d
• -d, --daemon=true run container as a daemon, incompatible with -b
• -s, --src=$(pwd) set the webapp source directory (-v $src:/var/www)
• -l, --log bind log volume with $src/../logs
• --log-reset remove all *.log files in logpath

By default the container's /var/www is bind with the working directory, you can change it with -s/--src option

./run.sh --src /home/user/public

By default no port is bind with host, you can bind with default web port (80) with -p option which add -p 80:80 option to docker run

./aphpache/run.sh -p # => docker run -p 80:80

You can use th --port option for select another port to bind with host

./aphpache/run.sh --port 8080 # => docker run -p 8080:80

The -l option bind the /va/log/apache2 (on container) with $src/../logs (on host). You can clean there log with --log-reset option
