elzekool/magdev repository overview

⁠Docker Image for Magento#

This repository creates a Docker image for Magento (as of this writing version 1.9.2.2). It is not meant for production but for easy development.

It is based on alexcheng1982/docker-magento⁠. The main difference is that it uses a volume for hosting magento, making it posible to edit the source outside the container.

⁠Usage

This image is intented to be used with docker-compose⁠. A sample configuration file ([docker-compose.yml]) is included in this repository. This file references env⁠ for it's environment.

Steps:

1. Download or create docker-compose.yml and env in a folder

2. Execute docker-compose up -d this starts the MySQL, Redis en PHP/Apache box

3. Execute docker exec -it -u www-data $(docker-compose ps | grep web | awk '{print $1;}') download-magento to download Magento

4. (Optional) Execute docker exec -it -u www-data $(docker-compose ps | grep web | awk '{print $1;}') install-sampledata to install the sample data. This has to be done before the Magento installation

5. Execute docker exec -it -u www-data $(docker-compose ps | grep web | awk '{print $1;}') install-magento to run the magento installer.

⁠Usefull information

• The default volume mount (configured in docker-compose.yml) is ./src
• Make sure the configured host (as configured in env) is in your hostfile
• Xdebug is configured to connect back
• This box is not meant for production as it exposes the root password for MySQL as an environment variabele
• The two scripts exec-magerun.sh and exec-php-cli.sh allow running n98-magerun and PHP inside the docker container, the local directory inside the container is /var/www/htdocs
• The user www-data is given an user id of 1000. On most linux systems this is the id of the first non-root user. This makes the files under ./src writable by this user. If the user you want to use has an other id you need to change this, this can be done with docker exec -it $(docker-compose ps | grep web | awk '{print $1;}') usermod -u $(id -u USERNAME) www-data where USERNAME is replaced by the user you want www-data to correspond with.
