Wordpress Docker-Compose

A simple docker-compose Wordpress with Nginx, PHP-FPM, MariaDB, and Redis stack

What is Wordpress

WordPress is an online, open source website creation tool written in PHP. But in non-geek speak, it’s probably the easiest and most powerful blogging and website content management system (or CMS) in existence today.

Explanation: docker-compose.xml

• Create persistant volume mount to match directories on host for wordpress containers
• mysql: The database files for MariaDB
• nginx: The Nginx configuration files
• wordpress: The WordPress root folder
• logs/nginx: The Nginx log files (error.log, access.log)
• ssl: certificate folder for HTTPS configuration
