Docker based development environment for WordPress- Includes Caddy, MariaDB, PHP, Memcached, Mailhog and PHPMyAdmin.
WPDev creates a full development environment for WordPress containing:
- Caddy Web Server
- MySQL Database
- Memcached
- PHP (5.6 / 7.2 / 7.3)
- Mailhog
- PHPMyAdmin
You can easily customize this further by editing the docker-compose.yml file yourself.
The easiest way to use this is by cloning it into a directory for each site you want.
git clone https://github.com/PeterBooker/wpdev.git dir-name
Next, from the newly created directory, start up the Docker containers:
docker-compose up -d
During startup WordPress will be installed if needed. Once running you can access WordPress at localhost, Mailhog at mailhog.localhost and PHPMyAdmin at phpmyadmin.localhost. WordPress files are persisted to /.docker/wordpress/ and DB files to /.docker/data/db/.
From this point you can start and stop the containers with:
docker-compose start and docker-compose stop
Finally, you can remove the containers:
docker-compose down
- Replace Caddy with NGINX and Apache, switched via Environment Variable.
- Add convenience scripts for DB backups, DB imports and adding content like Theme Unit Test data.
