We always wanted a quicker better depployment for both new Wordpress projects and legacy WP projects.
Deploying WP projects in a old school way seemed no longer a good idea
That's why we worked carefully to create this template for docker compose
Thus, we create a composition with the following services
- Wordpress fpm
- Nginx - nginx-wordpress
- MySQL
- Redis
- carefully check configs - your domwin in nginx-conf/default.conf, mapping of source files to volumes in docker-compose.yml, presence of backup files and migrate (one-time sql script), domain name in secure.sh etc
Also check config from
your_wp_source_folder/wp-config.php - provide
wp-dbbackup.sql.gz - Provide migrate script to update urls
docker-compose up -d- sometimes you can get permission error, then dive into container and run chown -R command:
docker exec -it files_wordpress_1 /bin/bash
chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html
- run sh secure.sh to propagate certificates for cert bot
sudo docker stop $(sudo docker ps -aq) - stops containers
sudo docker rm $(sudo docker ps -aq) - deletes all containers
sudo docker volume rm $(sudo docker volume ls --filter dangling=true -q) - deletes volumes
docker logs --since 5m files_nginx_1 - reads logs from detached running container
