Docker-First Attempt

Introduction

This is an attempt to include Drupal 8 & Reactjs (Node based Frontend) together within a docker. You can use it to learn or develop headless Drupal applications.

List of containers included:

• Traefik - prabhakarhub_traefik
• Mailhog - prabhakarhub_mailhog
• Portainer - prabhakarhub_portainer
• PHP - prabhakarhub_php
• PMA - prabhakarhub_pma
• Mariadb - prabhakarhub_mariadb
• Node - prabhakarhub_node

To ssh into containers run command docker exec -it <container_name> bash

Steps to use:

1. Make sure you are inside drupal8_with_reactjs (prahub is updated more frequently) or directory containing docker-compose.yml
2. Make copy of .env.example & rename to .env
3. Run docker-compose up -d
4. SSH into PHP container (docker exec -it prabhakarhub_php bash in this case) and run composer install
5. SSH into PHP container and run drush cim -y
6. Exit from PHP container.

Paths to remember:

1. Drupal 8 - http://prahub.docker.localhost:8888
2. Reactjs - http://app.prahub.docker.localhost:8888

You can change port number, container names, paths etc by editing .env file.

@TODOs:

1. Consolidate multiple setup commands to single command
2. Preservation of container data even after removal
3. Pass environment variables from .env to reactjs
4. Better documentation

Any help or suggestion are always welcome.
