  wp_volume:

.env

WP_PORT=1234
WP_URL=localhost:1234
WP_USER=admin
WP_PASSWORD=password
WP_EMAIL=not@real.com
WP_TITLE=WordPress
WP_DESCRIPTION=Just Another WordPress Blog
WP_DEBUG=true
WP_THEME=twentynineteen
WP_PLUGINS="leaflet-map quote-tweet"

But Why

This will auto-install WordPress, so you can docker-compose down -v and docker-compose up without having to re-install WordPress each time.

You can also use this image to run WP CLI commands, like so: docker-compose run cli wp plugin list or docker-compose run cli wp post create --post_type=post --post_title='New Post' --post_content='Another post' --post_status=publish

Also

You can execute any script within the cli container with an initialize.sh file:

initialize.sh

wp post create \
  --post_type=post \
  --post_title='Leaflet Map' \
  --post_content='[leaflet-map] [leaflet-marker]' \
  --post_status='publish'

And add it to the container in a volume:

docker-compose.yml

cli:
  image: bozdoz/wordpress-initialize
  volumes:
    - wp_volume:/var/www/html
+   - ./initialize.sh:/app/initialize.sh
