Yet another WordPress installation repository :)
This repository shows the steps that I used for publishing my personal website.

Features

Pre-defined themes
Deploy with either docker run or docker compose
Reverse proxy and ssl offloading support via nginx-proxy
Automated backup support via docker-db-backup

Detailed version of step by step installation in Turkish is here.

Installation

1. Build your custom WordPress `Dockerfile`

docker build . -t custom-wordpress

2. Set up your MySQL database

docker run -d --restart always -p 3306:3306 --name wordpress-db -v wordpress-db:/var/lib/mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=root-pwd -e MYSQL_DATABASE=blog -e MYSQL_USER=mute -e MYSQL_PASSWORD=user-pwd mysql

3. Create your website with your docker image

docker run -d --restart always -p 8888:80 --name wordpress -e WORDPRESS_DB_HOST=your-db-host -e WORDPRESS_DB_NAME=blog -e WORDPRESS_DB_USER=mute -e WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD=user-pwd custom-wordpress

(Optional) Creating your environment using docker-compose.yml

Once you completed step 1 and pushed your image to a container registry, docker-compose.yml file can be used as another solution.

Set your respective environment variables in .env
Set DOCKER_NETWORK env var in order to use a pre-existing network on docker
VIRTUAL_HOST and LETSENCRYPT_HOST env vars can be used to set up an nginx-proxy configuration properly which I achived here

docker-compose up -d
