LAMP Dev Env with HTTPS

For different versions of PHP, check the releases section.

Mac Instructions

1. Clone This Repo
2. $ cp example.env .env
3. Change the SITE_URL field in .env to the domain you want (by default it's mycustomdomain.test)
4. $ brew install mkcert nss
5. $ ./generate-certs-mac.sh
6. Add an entry to your /etc/hosts file. 127.0.0.1 mycustomdomain.test
7. $ docker-compose up

Then open up https://mycustomdomain.test. Put your PHP app in the /www folder.

Tips + Tricks

• If you want different ports (other than localhost:80), edit the docker-compose.yml file. (If you want to access the https website on port 1337, then change 443:443 to 1337:443 under phpwebserver.)
• If you want to access variables from your env file, by default in the docker-compose.yml I mount it as /etc/environment in the container. In PHP you can grab the vars like this:

$env = parse_ini_file("/etc/enviornment", true, INI_SCANNER_RAW);

• If you want to ssh into the container, run the following:

$ docker exec -it lamp-boilerplate-phpwebserver /bin/bash

(Replace "lamp-boilerplate-phpwebserver" with whatever you name the container in docker-compose.yml.)

Gotchas

• PHP MyAdmin only works over http... I'm open to a PR that fixes this.
• If you want to use this with multiple projects, make sure to change the container_names in docker-compose.yml.
