Docker LEMP Stack

Here is how I setup a Docker LEMP stack on Ubuntu 14.04 w/ Mariadb and redis

Below is my default nginx site file

server {

        listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on;                                   
                                                                                     
        root /var/www/html/;

        location ~ \.php$ {

            include fastcgi_params;                                                                                      
            fastcgi_index index.php;                                                                                     
            fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME  $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;       
        }                                                                            
                                                                                     
}

Lets build our image

docker build -t nginx_1

Then run the following to set it all up

docker run --name mariadb -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=docker -e MYSQL_DATABASE=db1 -p 3306:3306 -d mariadb
docker run --name redis -d redis
docker run --name nginx --link mariadb:mariadb --link redis:redis -p 80:80 -v /path/to/local/docker/www/:/var/www/html -d nginx_1

If we want to connect to our nginx container shell:

docker run --rm -t -i --volumes-from nginx --link redis:redis --link mariadb:mariadb nginx_1 /bin/bash

docker cleanup:
occasionally I want to clean everything up and start fresh

docker stop $(docker ps -q)
docker rm $(docker ps -aq)
docker rmi $(docker images|grep "^<none>" | awk '{print $3}')
