# Docker + Lumen with Nginx, MySQL, and Memcached

![image](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/saada/docker-lumen/master/Lumen_splash.png)

## Why?

Setting up an entire Lumen stack can be time consuming. This repo is a quick way to write apps in PHP using Lumen from an any Docker client. It uses docker-compose to setup the application services, databases, cache, etc...

## Clone this repo

```bash
git clone https://github.com/saada/docker-lumen.git
cd docker-lumen
```

## Create Lumen App

now, create the app in the `images/php` directory named `app`

```bash
docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd)/images/php:/app $(docker build -q .) composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/lumen ./app
```

### Configuration

There are two configurations using `.env` files. One `.env` file for docker-compose.yaml and another for the php application.

```sh
# copy both files and make changes to them if needed
cp .env.docker.example .env
cp .env.app.example images/php/app/.env
```

To change configuration values, look in the `docker-compose.yml` file and change the `php` container's environment variables. These directly correlate to the Lumen environment variables.

## Docker Setup

### [Docker for Mac](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/)

### [Docker for Windows](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/)

### [Docker for Linux](https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/linux/)

### Build & Run

```bash
docker-compose up --build -d
```

Navigate to [http://localhost:80](http://localhost:80) and you should see something like this

Success! You can now start developing your Lumen app on your host machine and you should see your changes on refresh! Classic PHP development cycle. A good place to start is `images/php/app/routes/web.php`.

Feel free to configure the default port 80 in `docker-compose.yml` to whatever you like.

### Stop Everything

```bash
docker-compose down
```

## Running Artisan commands

```sh
docker-compose exec php sh
# inside the container
cd ..
php artisan migrate
php artisan cache:clear
```
