Docker containers with Vagrant

Requirements

• Vagrant >= 1.7.0

Important notice for Windows Users

If you are working with Git repositories, make sure Git is not changing your line endings to CRLF, because you'll run these files in development in a Linux container. You can find more information about this topic on GitHub.

Get started!

Download or clone:

git clone https://github.com/phundament/app.git
cd app

Initialize

Setup your environment

cp .env-dist .env

Get the vendor folder for development like so

vagrant up db
vagrant docker-run web -- composer install --prefer-dist

Note! We manually start the db container since it's linked from the web container.

Run

After initialization and setup you can bring up the containers

vagrant up --no-parallel

Now, you're ready to access the application under

• frontend application
• backend module

Database migrations

To run your database migrations you have to open a bash in your web container with:

vagrant docker-run -t web -- /bin/bash

On this bash you can run yii with:

./yii migrate

Platform specific information

Windows and OS X Users

If you need to debug Docker, it is recommended to login to the dockerhost with

OS X Users:

VAGRANT_VAGRANTFILE=Vagrantfile-dockerhost vagrant ssh

Windows Users:

set VAGRANT_VAGRANTFILE=Vagrantfile-dockerhost && vagrant ssh

and run docker from there.

If you want to reuse the Vagrant VM for your Docker containers across projects, follow these guidelines

cp build/dockerhost/Vagrantfile \
   ~/vagrant-dockerhost/Vagrantfile

and update the docker.vagrant_vagrantfile setting in your Vagrantfile.

Linux Users

Our Vagrant vagrant-docker-vm registers a private network interface with the IP 192.168.7.6. If you'd like to use your system docker installation comment the docker.vagrant_vagrantfile sections in the Vagrantfile in the project root folder.

Reading values from fig setup

You can also load values from a fig.yml into a Vagrantfile if you need to support both setups...

require "yaml"
fig = YAML.load(File.open(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "fig.yml"), File::RDONLY).read)

Assign a parameter from a fig file...

docker.env = {
  "VIRTUAL_HOST" => fig["api"]["environment"]["VIRTUAL_HOST"]
}
