This has been archived, as the original vendor now supports PHP 8+. Please see them here: original vendor

TL;DR

Local workspace

$ mkdir ~/myapp && cd ~/myapp
$ curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/runthis/docker-laravel/main/docker-compose.yml
$ docker-compose up

Warning: This quick setup is only intended for development environments. You are encouraged to change the insecure default credentials and check out the available configuration options for the MariaDB container for a more secure deployment.

This CVE scan report contains a security report with all open CVEs. To get the list of actionable security issues, find the "latest" tag, click the vulnerability report link under the corresponding "Security scan" field and then select the "Only show fixable" filter on the next page.

Purpose

The purpose of this fork is to use PHP 8 with this vendor. Vendor upstreams are merged every few weeks.

Getting started

The quickest way to get started with the Laravel Development Container is using docker-compose.

Begin by creating a directory for your Laravel application:

mkdir ~/myapp
cd ~/myapp

Download the docker-compose.yml file in the application directory:

$ curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/runthis/docker-laravel/main/docker-compose.yml

Finally launch the Laravel application development environment using:

$ docker-compose up

Among other things, the above command creates a container service, named myapp, for Laravel development and bootstraps a new Laravel application in the application directory. You can use your favorite IDE for developing the application.

Note

If no application available at http://localhost:3005 and you're running Docker on Windows, you might need to uncomment privileged setting for myapp container. Later, re-launch the Laravel application development environment as stated before.

In addition to the Laravel Development Container, the docker-compose.yml file also configures a MariaDB service to serve as the database backend of your Laravel application, as well as a PHPMyAdmin service available at http://localhost:3010.

Executing commands

Commands can be launched inside the myapp Laravel Development Container with docker-compose using the exec command.

Note:

The exec command was added to docker-compose in release 1.7.0. Please ensure that you're using docker-compose version 1.7.0 or higher.

The general structure of the exec command is:

$ docker-compose exec <service> <command>

, where <service> is the name of the container service as described in the docker-compose.yml file and <command> is the command you want to launch inside the service.

Following are a few examples of launching some commonly used Laravel development commands inside the myapp service container.

List all artisan commands:

$ docker-compose exec myapp php artisan list

List all registered routes:

$ docker-compose exec myapp php artisan route:list

Create a new application controller named UserController:

$ docker-compose exec myapp php artisan make:controller UserController

Installing a new composer package called phpmailer/phpmailer with version 5.2.*:
```
$ docker-compose exec myapp composer require phpmailer/phpmailer:5.2.*
```

Special Thanks

We want to thank the following vendor for supplying this awesome package.
