Requirements

• Docker

Installation

composer create-project brettt89/silverstripe-docker ./my/website/folder

./my/website/folder should be the root directory where your codebase and configuration files will live.

Applications packaged in docker-compose.yml

• Apache Webserver
• MySQL Database
• Composer
• SSPAK

Setup

These commands should be run from within the project folder created during Installation.

E.g. ./my/website/folder

Clone website into public/ directory

git clone <repo> public

NOTE: It is important that the website codebase exists in the public/ directory

Install composer dependencies:

docker-compose run composer install

Import database with sspak:

NOTE: Copy your sspak into the snapshots/ directory

docker-compose run sspak load snapshots/<sspak> public

Finally, bring up the site and the asset builder:

docker-compose up -d web

The asset builder uses gulp to watch the swift directory for any changes and rebuilds as necessary

The site will then be available at http://localhost/.
