Container for running Drupal7 based sites.

Create a data volume container

See https://docs.docker.com/engine/userguide/containers/dockervolumes/

	
	# docker create -v /var/www --name drupal-data alpine:latest /bin/true

Including SSL, custom nginx configs

Before building container, you can customize it, including your own nginx config files for your sites into sites/available directory, alongside with certificates into ssl directory.

Build current container

	# docker build -t solfisk/drupal7 .

Now spin up the drupal7 container

	# docker run --volumes-from drupal-data -l mariadb-percona:mysql --name drupal7 solfisk/drupal7

Verify, that container works - it have to show php_info on http://172.22.0.4/ and http://172.22.0.4/robots.txt

This container has this:

• nginx running on 0.0.0.0:80, 0.0.0.0:443 ports

• PHP-FPM running on 127.0.0.1:9000 port

• memcached running on 127.0.0.1:11211 port

• drupal files saved in /var/www/localhost/htdocs

• script to backup data

• script to restore data

• script to generate nginx site - config + directory for it

Backup data

	# docker exec -ti drupal7 backup > /var/tmp/drupal7.backup

Restore data

	# cat /var/tmp/drupal7.backup | docker exec -ti drupal7 restore 

Create new site

	# docker exec -ti drupal7 createSite drupal7.local

It will create directory of /var/ww/drupal7.local, the corresponding config in /etc/nginx/sites-available/drupal7.local, enable it by means of symlinking it to /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/drupal7.local, than test and reload nginx config.

Download drupal core

Execute this script to download drupal-7 from official repo using drush into newly created directory for drupal7.local

	# docker exec -ti drupal7 drush dl --destination /var/www/drupal7.local drupal-7.x

Set up a site

We can configure drupal using drush tool like this:

 	# docker exec -ti drupal7 cd /var/www/drupal7.local && drush site-install standard \
	--site-name=drupal7.local \
    --account-name=admin \
    --account-pass=admin \
    --db-url=mysql://admin:admin@mysql:3306/my-site

We can run mysql database using this command:

    docker run --name mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=my-secret-pw -d solfisk/mariadb-percona:latest

Than we need to inspect it to get it's IP address on local network being bridged

    # docker inspect mysql

I have it running on IPAddress": "172.17.0.2".

Than we need to create database on this host.

    $ mysql_setpermission --host 172.17.0.2 -user root --password

You need to create user admin with password admin and database of name of nota_dk and grant SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE,CREATE,DROP,INDEX,ALTER permissions on it from any host. I used mysql workbench for doing this.

Start and link mysql container in private network

Start and link drupal container in private network

docker -t docker-drupal7 build .
