Docker Setup for Symfony 6.3.* Web Apps

Docker containers for traditional Symfony 6.3.* web apps, i.e., apps that you would usually create using the --webapp Symfony CLI option or the composer require webapp command.

What is inside

Nginx webserver
PHP 8.2 (with composer)
MySQL 8.0
phpMyAdmin

Local dev guide (Linux)

Clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/TOA-Anakin/symfony-webapp-docker-dev.git

Rename the cloned repo as desired:

mv symfony-webapp-docker-dev your_project_name

Find your user ID using the id -u command and update the .docker/.env file accordingly.

cd into the .docker directory and build the Docker containers:

cd your_project_name/.docker
docker compose up -d --build

Before the end of the process you should see a list of newly created (now running) containers:

Open the terminal of the PHP container (mine is named symfony_webapp_docker-php-1) and create a Symfony skeleton project using composer:
```
docker exec -it symfony_webapp_docker-php-1 bash
composer create-project symfony/skeleton:"6.3.*" tmp_dir
```
Move the contents of temp_dir into the project root:
```
mv tmp_dir/* . && mv tmp_dir/.[!.]* . && rmdir tmp_dir
```
Install Symfony web app packages:
```
composer require webapp
```
Note: If you are prompted with a question Do you want to include Docker configuration from recipes?, answer n [No].
Access your Symfony web app at http://localhost, phpMyAdmin is accessible at http://localhost:8081
