Docker Setup for Laravel/Lumen projects

Local dev guide (Linux)

1. Clone the repo:

   git clone https://github.com/TOA-Anakin/lumen-docker-dev.git

2. Rename the cloned repo as desired:

   mv lumen-docker-dev your_project_name

3. Check your user ID using the id -u command and update the .docker/.env file accordingly.
4. cd into the .docker directory and build the Docker containers:

   cd your_project_name/.docker
   docker compose up -d --build

   Before the end of the process you should see a list of newly created (now running) containers:

   [+] Running 2/2
   ✔ Network lumen_docker_app      Created      0.1s 
   ✔ Container lumen_docker-api-1  Started      0.1s

5. Open the terminal of the PHP container (mine is named lumen_docker-php-1) and create a Lumen project using composer:

   docker exec -it lumen_docker-php-1 bash
   composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/lumen tmpdir

   Move the contents of temp_dir into the project root:

   mv tmpdir/* . && mv tmpdir/.[!.]* . && rmdir tmpdir

6. Access your Lumen web app at http://localhost
