Quick Overview

Let's see how easy it is to setup our demo stack PHP, NGINX, MySQL, Redis and Composer:

1 - Clone Laradock inside your PHP project:

git clone https://github.com/Laradock/laradock.git

2 - Enter the laradock folder and rename env-example to .env.

cp env-example .env

3 - Run your containers:

docker-compose up -d nginx mysql phpmyadmin redis workspace

4 - Open your project's .env file and set the following:

DB_HOST=mysql
REDIS_HOST=redis
QUEUE_HOST=beanstalkd

5 - Open your browser and visit localhost: http://localhost.

That's it! enjoy :)

What is Docker?

Docker is an open platform for developing, shipping, and running applications. Docker enables you to separate your applications from your infrastructure so you can deliver software quickly. With Docker, you can manage your infrastructure in the same ways you manage your applications. By taking advantage of Docker’s methodologies for shipping, testing, and deploying code quickly, you can significantly reduce the delay between writing code and running it in production.

Why Docker not Vagrant!?

Vagrant creates Virtual Machines in minutes while Docker creates Virtual Containers in seconds.

Instead of providing a full Virtual Machines, like you get with Vagrant, Docker provides you lightweight Virtual Containers, that share the same kernel and allow to safely execute independent processes.

In addition to the speed, Docker gives tons of features that cannot be achieved with Vagrant.

Most importantly Docker can run on Development and on Production (same environment everywhere). While Vagrant is designed for Development only, (so you have to re-provision your server on Production every time).
