kkovacs/php repository overview

IMPORTANT: These images are automatically rebuilt every month, using the latest PHP images and the latest Laravel Sail.

It has two things:

⁠1. PHP with PostgreSQL

Exactly the same as https://hub.docker.com/_/php⁠ , but with the pgsql (PostgreSQL) module built in.

⁠2. Laravel Sail, pre-built

Laravel Sail pre-built from https://github.com/laravel/sail/⁠ , with WWWGROUP=1000, as this covers ~98% of cases, making a local build unnecessary, and startup much faster.

You only need to edit the docker-compose.yml file that Sail has generated, like this:

version: '3'
services:
    laravel.test:
        #build:
        #    context: ./vendor/laravel/sail/runtimes/8.3
        #    dockerfile: Dockerfile
        #    args:
        #        WWWGROUP: '${WWWGROUP}'
        #image: sail-8.3/app
        image: kkovacs/php:8.3-sail
[...]

⁠3. A static-php-cli⁠ built with PostgreSQL

You can use it like this, for example:

cd some-laravel-project
docker run --rm -it -v $PWD:/app -p 80:80 kkovacs/php:8.3-static-php-cli artisan serve --host 0.0.0.0 --port 80

You can also solve Laravel Sail's "chicken-and-egg" problem with composer like this:

wget https://github.com/composer/composer/releases/latest/download/composer.phar
docker run --rm -it -v $PWD:/app -p 80:80 kkovacs/php:8.3-static-php-cli composer.phar

⁠Deprecated: the sail-swoole image

There used to be a section here about using Laravel Sail with Swoole which had it's own kkovacs/php:8.x-sail-swoole image, but that's unnecessary anymore: just use the kkovacs/php:8.3-sail image, and the instructions from Laravel Octane⁠ on using SUPERVISOR_PHP_COMMAND.
