Production Setup on Digital Ocean

Install Docker

• Visit DigitalOcean and login.
• Click the Create Droplet button.
• Open the One-click apps tab.
• Select Docker with your preferred version.
• Continue creating the droplet as you normally would.
• If needed, check your e-mail for the droplet root password.

SSH to your Server

Find the IP address of the droplet in the DigitalOcean interface. Use it to connect to the server.

ssh root@ipaddress

You may be prompted for a password. Type the one you found within your e-mailbox. It'll then ask you to change the password.

You can now check if Docker is available:

$root@server:~# docker

Set Up Your Laravel Project

$root@server:~# apt-get install git
$root@server:~# git clone https://github.com/laravel/laravel
$root@server:~# cd laravel
$root@server:~/laravel/ git submodule add https://github.com/Laradock/laradock.git
$root@server:~/laravel/ cd laradock

Install docker-compose command

$root@server:~/laravel/laradock# curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.8.0/run.sh > /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
$root@server:~/chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

Create Your Laradock Containers

$root@server:~/laravel/laradock# docker-compose up -d nginx mysql

Note that more containers are available, find them in the docs or the docker-compose.yml file.

Go to Your Workspace

docker-compose exec workspace bash

Install and configure Laravel

Let's install Laravel's dependencies, add the .env file, generate the key and give proper permissions to the cache folder.

$ root@workspace:/var/www# composer install
$ root@workspace:/var/www# cp .env.example .env
$ root@workspace:/var/www# php artisan key:generate
$ root@workspace:/var/www# exit
$root@server:~/laravel/laradock# cd ..
$root@server:~/laravel# sudo chmod -R 777 storage bootstrap/cache

You can then view your Laravel site by visiting the IP address of your server in your browser. For example:

http://192.168.1.1

It should show you the Laravel default welcome page.

However, we want it to show up using your custom domain name, as well.

Using Your Own Domain Name

Login to your DNS provider, such as Godaddy, Namecheap.

Point the Custom Domain Name Server to:

ns1.digitalocean.com
ns2.digitalocean.com
ns3.digitalocean.com

Within DigitalOcean, you'll need to change some settings, too.

Visit: https://cloud.digitalocean.com/networking/domains

Add your domain name and choose the server IP you'd provision earlier.

Serving Site With NGINX (HTTP ONLY)

Go back to command line.

$root@server:~/laravel/laradock# cd nginx
$root@server:~/laravel/laradock/nginx# vim laravel.conf

Remove default_server

    listen 80 default_server;
    listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on;

And add server_name (your custom domain)

    listen 80;
    listen [::]:80 ipv6only=on;
    server_name yourdomain.com;

Rebuild Your Nginx

$root@server:~/laravel/laradock/nginx# docker-compose down
$root@server:~/laravel/laradock/nginx# docker-compose build nginx

Re Run Your Containers MYSQL and NGINX

$root@server:~/laravel/laradock/nginx# docker-compose up -d nginx mysql

View Your Site with HTTP ONLY (http://yourdomain.com)

Run Site on SSL with Let's Encrypt Certificate

Note: You need to Use Caddy here Instead of Nginx

To go Caddy Folders and Edit CaddyFile

$root@server:~/laravel/laradock# cd caddy
$root@server:~/laravel/laradock/caddy# vim Caddyfile

Remove 0.0.0.0:80

0.0.0.0:80
root /var/www

and replace with your https://yourdomain.com

https://yourdomain.com
root /var/www

uncomment tls

#tls self-signed

and replace self-signed with your email address

tls serverbreaker@gmai.com

This is needed Prior to Creating Let's Encypt

Run Your Caddy Container without the -d flag and Generate SSL with Let's Encrypt

$root@server:~/laravel/laradock/caddy# docker-compose up  caddy

You'll be prompt here to enter your email... you may enter it or not

Attaching to laradock_mysql_1, laradock_caddy_1
caddy_1               | Activating privacy features...
caddy_1               | Your sites will be served over HTTPS automatically using Let's Encrypt.
caddy_1               | By continuing, you agree to the Let's Encrypt Subscriber Agreement at:
caddy_1               |   https://letsencrypt.org/documents/LE-SA-v1.0.1-July-27-2015.pdf
caddy_1               | Activating privacy features... done.
caddy_1               | https://yourdomain.com
caddy_1               | http://yourdomain.com

After it finishes, press Ctrl + C to exit.

Stop All Containers and ReRun Caddy and Other Containers on Background

$root@server:~/laravel/laradock/caddy# docker-compose down
$root@server:~/laravel/laradock/caddy# docker-compose up -d mysql caddy

View your Site in the Browser Securely Using HTTPS (https://yourdomain.com)

Note that Certificate will be Automatically Renew By Caddy

Intro

Wiring up Laravel, Laradock [Laravel+Docker] and PHPStorm to play nice together complete with remote xdebug'ing as icing on top! Although this guide is based on PHPStorm Windows, you should be able to adjust accordingly. This guide was written based on Docker for Windows Native.

Installation

• This guide assumes the following:
  • you have already installed and are familiar with Laravel, Laradock and PHPStorm.
  • you have installed Laravel as a parent of laradock. This guide assumes /c/_dk/laravel.

hosts

• Add laravel to your hosts file located on Windows 10 at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts. It should be set to the IP of your running container. Mine is: 10.0.75.2 On Windows you can find it by opening Windows Hyper-V Manager.

  • 

• Hosts File Editor makes it easy to change your hosts file.

  • Set laravel to your docker host IP. See Example.

Firewall

Your PHPStorm will need to be able to receive a connection from PHP xdebug either your running workspace or php-fpm containers on port 9000. This means that your Windows Firewall should either enable connections from the Application PHPStorm OR the port.

• It is important to note that if the Application PHPStorm is NOT enabled in the firewall, you will not be able to recreate a rule to override that.
• Also be aware that if you are installing/upgrade different versions of PHPStorm, you MAY have orphaned references to PHPStorm in your Firewall! You may decide to remove orphaned references however in either case, make sure that they are set to receive public TCP traffic.

Edit laradock/docker-compose.yml

Set the following variables:

### Workspace Utilities Container ###############

    workspace:
        build:
            context: ./workspace
            args:
                - INSTALL_XDEBUG=true
                - INSTALL_WORKSPACE_SSH=true
                ...


### PHP-FPM Container #####################

    php-fpm:
        build:
            context: ./php-fpm
            args:
                - INSTALL_XDEBUG=true
                ...

Edit xdebug.ini files

• laradock/workspace/xdebug.ini
• laradock/php-fpm/xdebug.ini

Set the following variables:

xdebug.remote_autostart=1
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_connect_back=1
xdebug.cli_color=1

Need to clean house first?

Make sure you are starting with a clean state. For example, do you have other Laradock containers and images? Here are a few things I use to clean things up.

• Delete all containers using grep laradock_ on the names, see: Remove all containers based on docker image name. docker ps -a | awk '{ print $1,$2 }' | grep laradock_ | awk '{print $1}' | xargs -I {} docker rm {}

• Delete all images containing laradock. docker images | awk '{print $1,$2,$3}' | grep laradock_ | awk '{print $3}' | xargs -I {} docker rmi {} Note: This will only delete images that were built with Laradock, NOT laradock/* which are pulled down by Laradock such as laradock/workspace, etc. Note: Some may fail with: Error response from daemon: conflict: unable to delete 3f38eaed93df (cannot be forced) - image has dependent child images

• I added this to my .bashrc to remove orphaned images.

  dclean() {
      processes=`docker ps -q -f status=exited`
      if [ -n "$processes" ]; thend
        docker rm $processes
      fi
  
      images=`docker images -q -f dangling=true`
      if [ -n "$images" ]; then
        docker rmi $images
      fi
  }
  

• If you frequently switch configurations for Laradock, you may find that adding the following and added to your .bashrc or equivalent useful:

# remove laravel* containers
# remove laravel_* images
dcleanlaradockfunction()
{
	echo 'Removing ALL containers associated with laradock'
	docker ps -a | awk '{ print $1,$2 }' | grep laradock | awk '{print $1}' | xargs -I {} docker rm {}

	# remove ALL images associated with laradock_
	# does NOT delete laradock/* which are hub images
	echo 'Removing ALL images associated with laradock_'
	docker images | awk '{print $1,$2,$3}' | grep laradock_ | awk '{print $3}' | xargs -I {} docker rmi {}

	echo 'Listing all laradock docker hub images...'
	docker images | grep laradock

	echo 'dcleanlaradock completed'
}
# associate the above function with an alias
# so can recall/lookup by typing 'alias'
alias dcleanlaradock=dcleanlaradockfunction

Let's get a dial-tone with Laravel

# barebones at this point
docker-compose up -d nginx mysql

# run
docker-compose ps

# Should see:
          Name                        Command             State                     Ports
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
laradock_mysql_1            docker-entrypoint.sh mysqld   Up       0.0.0.0:3306->3306/tcp
laradock_nginx_1            nginx                         Up       0.0.0.0:443->443/tcp, 0.0.0.0:80->80/tcp
laradock_php-fpm_1          php-fpm                       Up       9000/tcp
laradock_volumes_data_1     true                          Exit 0
laradock_volumes_source_1   true                          Exit 0
laradock_workspace_1        /sbin/my_init                 Up       0.0.0.0:2222->22/tcp

Enable xDebug on php-fpm

In a host terminal sitting in the laradock folder, run: .php-fpm/xdebug status You should see something like the following:

xDebug status
laradock_php-fpm_1
PHP 7.0.9 (cli) (built: Aug 10 2016 19:45:48) ( NTS )
Copyright (c) 1997-2016 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v3.0.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2016 Zend Technologies
    with Xdebug v2.4.1, Copyright (c) 2002-2016, by Derick Rethans

Other commands include .php-fpm/xdebug start | stop.

If you have enabled xdebug=true in docker-compose.yml/php-fpm, xdebug will already be running when php-fpm is started and listening for debug info on port 9000.

  • 

Let's shell into workspace

Assuming that you are in laradock folder, type: ssh -i workspace/insecure_id_rsa -p2222 root@laravel Cha Ching!!!!

• workspace/insecure_id_rsa.ppk may become corrupted. In which case:
  • fire up puttygen
  • import workspace/insecure_id_rsa
  • save private key to workspace/insecure_id_rsa.ppk

KiTTY

Kitty KiTTY is a fork from version 0.67 of PuTTY.
