DOCKERISED CODEIGNITER

A development environment for codeigniter developers

How to Install

Mac OS / Linux / Unix

If you are Mac OS X user you will need to install the docker toolbox. This will come with the docker-machine ( a light-weight virtual machine to run your docker containers in ), the docker client and docker compose.

Linux

Install docker

Install docker compose

Building / Starting

./start.sh

How it works

The bash script builds and brings up the 2 containers defined in the docker-compose.yml based on the Dockerfile for each named container. The script also pulls the ip address of the apache container and writes to your hosts file so the host codeigniter.dev is accessible. On stopping the containers all entries added to the hosts file are removed this is done by token added to each entry.

Stopping

./stop.sh

Destroying the environment

Remove all images

docker rmi $(docker images -q)

Stop and remove the docker-machine ( Mac OS X only)

docker-machine stop codeigniter
docker-machine rm codeigniter

Windows

Sorry windows people :-(

TODO TASKS

• Figure out how to Docker on Windows
• Convert bash scripts into something portable
• Write better docs
