The devilbox is a modern and highly customisable dockerized PHP stack supporting full LAMP and MEAN and running on all major platforms. The main goal is to easily switch and combine any version required for local development. It supports an unlimited number of projects for which vhosts, SSL certificates and DNS records are created automatically. Email catch-all and popular development tools will be at your service as well. Configuration is not necessary, as everything is pre-setup with mass virtual hosting.

Requirements

• Docker Engine 1.12.0+
• Docker Compose 1.9.0+

You are up and running in four simple steps:

# Get the devilbox
$ git clone https://github.com/cytopia/devilbox
$ cd devilbox

# Create docker-compose environment file
$ cp env-example .env

# Edit your configuration
$ vim .env

# Start all containers
$ docker-compose up

The above will start all containers, you can however also just start the containers you actually need. This is achieved by simply specifying them in the docker-compose command.

$ docker-compose up httpd php mysql redis

Every single attachable container comes with many different versions. In order to select the desired version for a container, simply edit the .env file and uncomment the version of choice. Any combination is possible.

You can also work directly inside the php container. Simply use the bundled scripts shell.sh. The PS1 will automatically be populated with current chosen php version.

# Enter as user devilbox (normal operation / development)
host> ./shell.sh
[email protected] in /shared/httpd $

# Enter as root user (do root stuff)
host> ./shell.sh
[email protected] in /shared/httpd $ sudo su -
[email protected] in /shared/httpd $

Your projects can be found in /shared/httpd. DNS records are automatically available inside the php container. Also every other service will be available on 127.0.0.1 inside the php container (tricky socat port-forwarding).

The devilbox has everything setup for you. The only thing you will have to install is docker and docker-compose. Virtual hosts and DNS entries will be created automatically, just by adding new project folders.

The following tools will assist you on creating new projects easily as well as helping you check your code against guidelines.

Well-known and popular tools will be at your service as well:

The devilbox is a development stack, so it is made sure that a lot of PHP modules are available out of the box in order to work with many different frameworks.

amqp, apcu, bcmath, bz2, calendar, Core, ctype, curl, date, dba, dom, enchant, exif, fileinfo, filter, ftp, gd, gettext, gmp, hash, iconv, igbinary, imagick, imap, interbase, intl, json, ldap, libxml, mbstring, mcrypt, memcache, memcached, mongodb, msgpack, mysqli, mysqlnd, openssl, pcntl, pcre, PDO, pdo_dblib, PDO_Firebird, pdo_mysql, pdo_pgsql, pdo_sqlite, pgsql, phalcon, Phar, posix, pspell, readline, recode, redis, Reflection, session, shmop, SimpleXML, snmp, soap, sockets, SPL, sqlite3, standard, swoole, sysvmsg, sysvsem, sysvshm, tidy, tokenizer, uploadprogress, wddx, xdebug, xml, xmlreader, xmlrpc, xmlwriter, xsl, Zend OPcache, zip, zlib

You can also copy any custom modules into mod/(php-fpm)-<VERSION> and add a custom *.ini file to load them.

As far as tested there are no limitations and you can use any Framework or CMS just as you would on your live environment. Below are a few examples of extensively tested Frameworks and CMS:

The devilbox comes with a pre-configured intranet on http://localhost. This can be explicitly disabled or password-protected. The intranet will not only show you, the chosen configuration, but also validate the status of the current configuration, such as if DNS records exists (on host and container), are directories properly set-up. Additionally it provides external tools to let you interact with databases and emails.

• Virtual Host overview (validates directories and DNS)
• Database overview (MySQL, PgSQL, Redis, Memcache, ...)
• Email overview
• Info pages (Httpd, MySQL, PgSQL, Redis, Memcache, ...)
• phpMyAdmin
• Adminer
• OpcacheGUI

A few examples of how the built-in intranet looks like.
