About

Simple app to demonstrate how to run Laravel app using container. The app will read markdown data from MySQL and display the rendered result.

Requirements

You need following softwares to run this app on your machine.

  • Docker v19 or v20

Download or Clone the App

You can either download the archive or clone the app from GitHub repository.

git clone https://github.com/rioastamal-examples/laravel-hello-markdown.git

Then you can enter to the directory to install all dependencies.

cd laravel-hello-markdown/laravel

Use Composer via Docker.

docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/app \
  public.ecr.aws/docker/library/composer:2.4 \
  composer install --no-dev

Build Docker Image for Local Development

You need to build image from Dockerfile.local since it will contains PHP extensions that needed to run Laravel app. Make sure to go back to laravel-hello-markdown/ directory.

cd ../
docker build -t php-mysql-ext:8.1-apache -f Dockerfile.local .

Check the image that has been created.

docker images
REPOSITORY                               TAG          IMAGE ID       CREATED        SIZE
php-mysql-ext                            8.1-apache   6039dbf8b82e   14 hours ago   459MB
public.ecr.aws/docker/library/composer   2.4          7c7139e3be94   6 days ago     200MB
public.ecr.aws/docker/library/php        8.1-apache   a35da485f274   5 weeks ago    458MB

Build Docker Image for Production

We will package entire files on the project to the container image. We will build the image using file Dockerfile.

As an example we will tag this container image as version 1.0.

docker build -t laravel-markdown:1.0 .

Then you can push laravel-markdown:1.0 to the registry and start using it on your production deployment.

Create configuration

Copy sample configuration to .env.local and also for .env.prod

cd laravel/
cp .env.example .env.local
cp .env.example .env.prod

Generate Laravel application key.

docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/var/www/html \
  php-mysql-ext:8.1-apache \
  php artisan --env=local key:generate

Edit all the required configuration such as MySQL hostname, user and password.

How to Run

Run migration first.

docker run --rm -it \
  -v $(pwd):/var/www/html php-mysql-ext:8.1-apache \
  php artisan migrate:refresh --seed

To run locally we can use artisan serve.

docker run --rm -it -p 8080:8000 \
  -v $(pwd):/var/www/html php-mysql-ext:8.1-apache \
  php artisan server --host=0.0.0.0

Now open your browser and go to http://localhost:8080. You should see list of articles written in Markdown.
