Here is the repository for the course PHP PROGRAMMING WITH MYSQL II (CEWP 559).

In this course we will be using Docker for setting up our environment.

To install Docker you can follow the instructions as follow:

• Windows 7 or Windows 10 without virtualization: Docker toolbox
• Windows 10 with virtualization: Docker for Windows
• Mac OSX: Docker for Mac

After a successful installation of docker, use bash or git bash (on windows) to go to the root of the project and execute the followings:

docker-compose build
docker-compose up -d

After a successful initialization, in your browser you can anvigate to http://localhost and you should be able to see the phpinfo page. Also navigating to http://localhost/test_db.php should give you 2 record that are already in the database.

If you want to check the execution of docker images inside your system, in a new instance of terminal or git bash, you can execute the following to see what's running:

docker ps 

and to ssh to the (php) machine:

docker ps
docker exec -it 7faf3ec980be /bin/bash

7faf3ec980be is the ID of the machine retrieved from docker ps. Replace it with your own Container ID.

If you want to kill everything and start Fresh?

docker-compose down

and start from the beginning.

If fo any reason, you have difficulties installing Docker on your machine and get yourself setup, you can fall back to Vagrant. You need to install VirtualBox and Vagrant then all you need to run:

vagrant up
