PHP Boilerplate

A highly opinionated repository with a collection of files to quickly spin up a PHP Project with sane defaults. It is meant to make PHP Development painless. This setup is NOT meant for production.

Vision

This repository should contain only the most common components like nginx, PHP, composer and a DB. All less common setups will not be covered in this repo. I leave it up to you to configure and extend the setup.

If you are looking for a setup where everything is pre-installed, you might be better served by something like Laradock

Getting Started

To get started clone the repo. Note: replace the my-project at end of the following command.

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Dmitrev/php-boilerplate.git my-project

Delete files you don't need

Right now the only way to get the files is using git clone which also gets you a copy of the git folder, you will not need it, so you should delete it!

rm -rf .git

create a source directory

This is mostly only need for Linux to ensure that the directory is created with your user's ownership

mkdir src

Create docker ENV file

creates an .env file with your user and group id which will be used to build the docker containers

echo "UID=$(id -u)\nGID=$(id -g)" >> .env

Run docker

docker compose up -d

Optionally install framework

If you want to use something like laravel, just run this. This will install Laravel in src/

docker compose exec php composer create-project laravel/laravel .
