Wordpress DOCKER Starter

Example of using wordpress official Docker image.

This is just an example template: to use remove wordpress folder files from .gitignore (see ./wordpress/README.txt)!

In all of the containers the local folder is shared in '/loc' so it can be used for backup purposes.

Important: on the first run build an the start only the databse container

docker-compose build
docker-compose up wpd_db

When you red "ready for connections" or similiar, press <CTRL>-<C>. Then, and only then, run

docker-compose up

wordpress should copy all php files in './wordpress'. If for some reason the local folder remains empty it means you have problems in sharing files with docker. This typically happends in Windows. In this case try to reset credentials in "Docker settings" dialog and, as suggested in the dialog, run:

docker run --rm -v c:/Users:/data alpine ls /data

You should see your c:\Users folder in /data. If this is not the case, try to fix the prblem.

Env vars

NOTES:

• MariaDB/MySQL's env variables must be set in a file called

  .secret_env_wpd_db.env
  

  (copy ".secret_env_wpd_db.EXAMPLE.env" to ".secret_env_wpd_db.env" and set passwords)

• Similarly wordpress uses

   .secret_env_wpd_wp.env
  

  (copy ".secret_env_wpd_wp.EXAMPLE.env" to ".secret_env_wpd_wp.env" and set passwords)

Notes

NOTES:

• On Linux you can add

   user: $UID
  

  to all services

TODO

• Add https with self signed certs: ° already done in other projects, must choose between only adding instructions or actual example certs
• Write better nginx config, the one here is just for having things up & running fast
• Enable php debug
