Running all the required php extensions for ProcessWire and also the following:

• PHP 7.4-apache
• ImageMagick

Clone the ProcessWire repository.

git clone https://github.com/processwire/processwire.git app/public

Now run docker compose command and you are good to go.

docker-compose up

The docker container where ProcessWire is installed can be accessed via 127.0.0.1, visit this I.P. in your browser to start the ProcessWire installation.

Information about the mysql connection can be found in docker-compose.yml.

I run this all in vscode with the Docker Remote extension. View all my extensions here.

• When starting the docker container for the first time the mysql settings (database name, user, pass) from docker-compose.yml will be loaded and are annoyingly persistent. Remember to use the command "docker-compose down -v" in terminal, even after closing in vscode when changing these and not being able to connect.

• When connecting to database from within the container, do not use localhost or 127.0.0.1. Use mysql (the service name), especially useful on the /install.php script for processwire.

• Run yarn && yarn build && yarn watch locally in app/site after site buiild.
