After downloading:

  > cd Docker
  > cp .env.dist .env

• change the APP_NAME env variable in the .env file to whatever you want your application to be called. Also, change the DB credentials and timezone if you wish.

• You can initialise the project with a tools container and a Makefile command by:

    > cd Docker
    > # create a Symfony project from symfony/skeleton
    > make init-symfony
    > # if you want to initialise with Encore, this will run the above command if the application directory doesn't exists (becasue Symfony is required)
    > make init-symfony-encore

• start the dev containers:

    > make start

• browse your localhost and you'll see the Symfony welcome page

• start the docker container:

  	> # note that here we are using the dev containers rather than the tools one
    > docker-compose up --build -d

• login to the php container:

    > docker exec -it docker_php_1 bash

• install the Symfony4 project with composer as you'd normally do (locally in the folder):

    > composer create-project symfony/skeleton .

• If you need to initialise the Encore, you will need to use the tools container:

  	> docker-compose -f docker-compose-dev.yml up --build -d
  	> # login to the container, note that the files are mapped to /tmp
  	> docker exec -it docker_tools_1 bash
  	> # following the Guidlines on 
  	> # https://symfony.com/doc/current/frontend/encore/installation.html
  	> yarn add @symfony/webpack-encore --dev
  	> composer require encore
  	> yarn install

• browse your localhost and you'll see the Symfony welcome page

• sy-require: this command will do a composer require command inside the container. Use as follows:

    > make sy-require PACK=<packname>
    > # example: make sy-require PACK=annotations

• sy-remove: this command will do a composer remove command inside the container. Use as follows:

    > make sy-remove PACK=<packname>
    > # example: make sy-remove PACK=annotations

• sy-run: this command will run a command on Symfony console inside the container. Use as follows:

    > make sy-run C=<symfony_command>
    > # example: make sy-run C=debug:router

• run: this command will run a command on Symfony console inside the tools container. Use as follows:

    > make run C="<any command>"
    > # example: make run C="pwd && ls"

• it is recommended to make use of the Makefile, type make to get documentation on usage.
• the tools container is based on php-fpm 7.1 and also has node and yarn installed globally. It also uses a non-root user tools for permissions for the composer, npm and yarn commands.
• the tools container is only for project initialisation purposes
• the nginx config maps to the public folder as root folder as the new SF4 now changed from web
• php is build based on php:7.1 and added on that is the composer, pdo, xdebug and other libraries (see Docker/php/Dockerfile)
