Nginx + php-fpm (v8) + nodejs

Based on php:8.4.1-fpm-alpine3.20, node:23.3.0-alpine3.20 (nodejs is not included in most of other nginx-php images...but needed by a lot of php frameworks), with nginx:alpine and richarvey/nginx-php-fpm's Docker script

• Since php8.4.1_node23.3.0, PHP brotli module is added and swoole module is removed (it doesn't support 8.4 by now).
• Since php8.3.6_node22.1.0, PHP imagick module is added.
• Since php8.2.8_node20.5.0, PHP mongodb module is added and GD module's JPEG and FreeType support are enabled.
• Since php8.1.8_node18.4.0, PHP amqp module is added.
• Since php8.1.10_node18.8.0, PHP swoole module is added.
• Since php8.1.12, added _withoutNodejs build for some pure PHP API frameworks like Lumen

NOTE If you are upgrading from PHP 8.0 to 8.1, 8.1 to 8.2, 8.2 to 8.3 or 8.3 to 8.4, you may need to run composer update to upgrade php packages, because some packages under 8.0/8.1/8.2/8.3 are not supported in 8.1/8.2/8.3/8.4 .

How to use

For example, use this docker image to deploy a Laravel 10 project.

Dockerfile:

FROM tangramor/nginx-php8-fpm

# copy source code
COPY . /var/www/html

# If there is a conf folder under /var/www/html, the start.sh will
# copy conf/nginx.conf to /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
# copy conf/nginx-site.conf to /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
# copy conf/nginx-site-ssl.conf to /etc/nginx/conf.d/default-ssl.conf

# copy ssl cert files
COPY conf/ssl /etc/nginx/ssl

# China alpine mirror: mirrors.ustc.edu.cn
ARG APKMIRROR=""

# start.sh will set desired timezone with $TZ
ENV TZ Asia/Shanghai

# China php composer mirror: https://mirrors.cloud.tencent.com/composer/
ENV COMPOSERMIRROR=""
# China npm mirror: https://registry.npmmirror.com
ENV NPMMIRROR=""

# start.sh will replace default web root from /var/www/html to $WEBROOT
ENV WEBROOT /var/www/html/public

# start.sh will use redis as session store with docker container name $PHP_REDIS_SESSION_HOST
ENV PHP_REDIS_SESSION_HOST redis

# start.sh will create laravel storage folder structure if $CREATE_LARAVEL_STORAGE = 1
ENV CREATE_LARAVEL_STORAGE "1"

# download required node/php packages, 
# some node modules need gcc/g++ to build
RUN if [[ "$APKMIRROR" != "" ]]; then sed -i "s/dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/${APKMIRROR}/g" /etc/apk/repositories ; fi\
    && apk add --no-cache --virtual .build-deps gcc g++ libc-dev make \
    # set preferred npm mirror
    && cd /usr/local \
    && if [[ "$NPMMIRROR" != "" ]]; then npm config set registry ${NPMMIRROR}; fi \
    && npm config set registry $NPMMIRROR \
    && cd /var/www/html \
    # install node modules
    && npm install \
    # install php composer packages
    && if [[ "$COMPOSERMIRROR" != "" ]]; then composer config -g repos.packagist composer ${COMPOSERMIRROR}; fi \
    && composer install \
    # clean
    && apk del .build-deps \
    # build js/css
    && npm run dev \
    # set .env
    && cp .env.test .env \
    # change /var/www/html user/group
    && chown -Rf nginx.nginx /var/www/html

You may check start.sh for more information about what it can do.

Develop with this image

Another example to develop with this image for a Laravel 11 project, you may modify the docker-compose.yml of your project.

Here we only modified fields image and environment under services -> laravel.test.

Make sure you have correct environment parameters set:

Add extra PHP modules

You may use this image as the base image to build your own. For example, to add mongodb module in images before php8.2.8_node20.5.0:

• Create a Dockerfile

FROM tangramor/nginx-php8-fpm:php8.2.7_node20.3.1

RUN apk add --no-cache --update --virtual .phpize-deps $PHPIZE_DEPS \
    && apk add --no-cache --update --virtual .all-deps $PHP_MODULE_DEPS \
    && pecl install mongodb \
    && docker-php-ext-enable mongodb \
    && rm -rf /tmp/pear \
    && apk del .all-deps .phpize-deps \
    && rm -rf /var/cache/apk/* /tmp/* /var/tmp/*

• Build image

docker build -t my-nginx-php8-fpm .
