Docker containers for Symfony development & production

This repository provides Dockerfiles for setting up ready to use Symfony development and production environments.

The configuration used in this repository makes use of Docker's layered image approach in the sense that the development environment image is simply an additional layer on top of the base image of the production environment. This means your development environment will be practically identical to the production environment.

Production images built from this repository are immutable and can be easily deployed to off-the-shelf Docker instances with all application code, dependencies, folders, etc. already included.

Structure

There is a worker-base image file that contains PHP-FPM and NGINX. Both processes expect a Symfony project at /var/www/app at runtime inside the container.

There is a worker-dev development image that extends worker-base and adds development functionality such as Xdebug and turns on PHP debug output. The image also sets Nginx's configuration to load web/app_dev.php instead of web/app.php. This development image expects application files to be mounted into the container to /var/www/app from the host which means any code changes will immediately take effect.

There is a worker-prod production image that extends worker-base and simply bakes a Symfony project into the container. This image can be easily deployed as an immutable throwaway instance of the entire application. This image should be built by executing worker-prod/build-release.sh.

Configuration

Container environment variables are used to adapt application behavior to the respective environment.

Add a app/config/parameters.php file to your project and include it after app/config/parameters.yml in your configuration file:

# app/config/config.yml
imports:
    - { resource: parameters.yml }
    - { resource: parameters.php }

# ...

In parameters.php, set Symfony parameters from environment variables as follows:

// app/config/parameters.php
$parameters = [
    // ENV_VAR_NAME => symfony parameter name
    'DB_1_PORT_3306_TCP_ADDR' => 'database_host',
    'DB_1_PORT_3306_TCP_PORT' => 'database_port',
    'DB_1_ENV_MYSQL_DATABASE' => 'database_name',
    'DB_1_ENV_MYSQL_USER' => 'database_user',
    'DB_1_ENV_MYSQL_PASSWORD' => 'database_password',
    // ...
];

foreach ($parameters as $envVar => $sfParam) {
    $value = getenv($envVar);
    if ($value !== false && $value !== '') {
        $container->setParameter($sfParam, $value);
    }
}

Note: All environment variables which are to be used as parameters need to be defined in worker-base/fpm/app.pool.conf, otherwise they will not be visible to PHP code.

Running app/console

To have Symfony's app/console utility work as expected, it needs to be run from inside the container so that all environment variables are available for Symfony.

Simply execute the following from the path of this repository:

docker-compose run worker /var/www/app/app/console

Building SfDocker images

To build the development images, run the following commands in the repository's top folder:

docker build -t symfony/worker-base worker-base
docker build -t symfony/worker-dev worker-dev

Then simply launch the development server with

docker-compose up

To build a production image, run the following command in the repository's top folder:

./worker-prod/build-release.sh
