- Volume mounts for application code, assets, and configuration files.
- Environment variables for PHP and Xdebug configuration.
- Traefik labels for reverse proxy and SSL termination.
For a comprehensive, real-world example of how to use this image in a Docker Compose setup, please refer to the wayofdev/laravel-starter-tpl repository. This template provides a fully configured development environment for Laravel projects using the wayofdev/php-dev
image.
The Nginx image is pre-configured for optimal performance with PHP applications, but you can customize it further to suit your specific needs.
The default configuration is generated using Ansible templates and includes:
- Optimized settings for PHP-FPM
- SSL/TLS support with self-signed certificates
- Gzip compression enabled
- Basic security headers
While the configuration is primarily managed through Ansible templates, you can override specific settings:
-
Environment Variables: The image uses the following environment variables:
Variable Default Value Description PHP_UPSTREAM_CONTAINER app The name of the PHP-FPM container PHP_UPSTREAM_PORT 9000 The port of the PHP-FPM container Set these in your
docker-compose.yml
file:services: web: image: wayofdev/nginx:k8s-alpine-latest environment: - PHP_UPSTREAM_CONTAINER=my-php-app - PHP_UPSTREAM_PORT=9001
-
Volume Mounts: For more extensive customizations, you can mount your own config files:
services: web: image: wayofdev/nginx:k8s-alpine-latest volumes: - ./custom-nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf - ./custom-default.conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
The image includes self-signed SSL certificates. To use your own:
services:
web:
image: wayofdev/nginx:k8s-alpine-latest
volumes:
- ./certs/cert.pem:/etc/nginx/ssl/cert.pem
- ./certs/key.pem:/etc/nginx/ssl/key.pem
For more advanced configurations:
- Fork this repository
- Modify the Ansible templates in the
src
directory - Regenerate the Dockerfiles using
make generate
- Build your custom image
This project uses a set of tools for development and testing. The Makefile
provides various commands to streamline the development process.
- Docker
- Make
- Ansible
- goss and dgoss for testing
Clone the repository:
git clone git@github.com:wayofdev/docker-nginx.git && \
cd docker-nginx
Ansible is used to generate Dockerfiles and configurations. To generate distributable Dockerfiles from Jinja template source code:
make generate
-
Build the default image:
make build
This command builds the image specified by the
IMAGE_TEMPLATE
variable in the Makefile. By default, it's set tok8s-alpine
. -
Build a specific image:
make build IMAGE_TEMPLATE="k8s-alpine"
Replace
8.3-fpm-alpine
with your desired PHP version, type, and OS. -
Build all images:
make build IMAGE_TEMPLATE="k8s-alpine" make build IMAGE_TEMPLATE="dev-alpine"
These commands will build all supported image variants.
This project uses a testing approach to ensure the quality and functionality of the Docker images. The primary testing tool is dgoss, which allows for testing Docker containers.
You can run tests using the following commands:
-
Test the default image:
make test
This command tests the image specified by the
IMAGE_TEMPLATE
variable in the Makefile (default isk8s-alpine
). -
Test a specific image:
make test IMAGE_TEMPLATE="k8s-alpine"
Replace
k8s-alpine
with your desired image type, and OS. -
Test all images:
make test IMAGE_TEMPLATE="k8s-alpine" make test IMAGE_TEMPLATE="dev-alpine"
The test configurations are defined in goss.yaml
files, which are generated for each image variant. These files specify the tests to be run, including:
- File existence and permissions
- Process checks
- Port availability
- Package installations
- Command outputs
When you run the make test
command, the following steps occur:
- The specified Docker image is built (if not already present).
- dgoss runs the tests defined in the
goss.yaml
file against the Docker container. - The test results are displayed in the console.
This project has a security policy.
