Before you start make sure you have Docker Compose installed on your machine.

Clone the repo by running the following command

$ git clone https://github.com/prbdias/docker-lumen.git

Before you start your application make sure you have created the file .env with the correct Docker configuration values. Please take a look into the example on the file .env.example

$ cp .env.example .env

To start you application you just need to run the following command

$ docker-compose up -d --build

Give it 5min while composer installs all the Lumen dependencies automatically under the vendor folder.

Once it has finished you should be able to see Lumen's default page on your browser.

In order to run PHP on the command line you can list all the containers by running

$ docker-compose ps

Assuming you left the the config value COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME=app you should see a container running with the name app_workspace_1

All you have to do is to run the following command to use the workspace container as your main bash

$ docker exec -i -t app_workspace_1 /bin/bash

And then you will have PHP ready for you, just give it a try!

$ php artisan
