Inception-42

Project Overview

• Welcome to Inception! This project sets up an infrastructure with various services using Docker Compose.
• Each service runs in a dedicated container, built from the stable version of Debian: bullseye-slim.
• Inception includes:
  • MariaDB.
  • WordPress with php-fpm.
  • NGINX with TLSv1.2 or TLSv1.3.
  • Volumes and persistent data for WordPress database and website files.

Requirements

• Docker Compose for managing containers.
• Dockerfiles for each service, ensuring containers are built from scratch.
• Containers automatically restart in case of a crash.
• No usage of ready-made Docker images or DockerHub.
• NGINX container is the sole entry point via port 443 using TLSv1.2 or TLSv1.3.
• Prohibited usage of network: host, --link, links:, or infinite loops in commands or entrypoints.
• WordPress database with two users, one being the administrator, following username restrictions.
• Volumes accessible on the host machine in the /home/login/data folder.

Usage

Build Containers

To build the containers, use the following command:

make build

Start Containers

To start the containers, run the command:

make up

You can check many other makefile rules in the Makefile located at the root of the project.

Additional Notes

• NGINX is the only entry point and can be accessed via port 443.
• The domain name points to the local IP address.
• The domain name follows the pattern: login.42.fr.
• The necessary environment variables are set in the .env file at the root of the srcs directory. I included them at this git for educational reasons but never push it to a repository specially if it's public.
