This project is a basic minimalistic 3 container build that allows data from a database to get displayed on your browser's localhost. Refresh = New Data.
The project uses 3 seperate Docker containers:
- Nginx - Used as the web-server to serve data to a webpage
- MySQL - The database holding 100 records of random data
- PHP & PHP-FPM - PHP was used as the language of choice in order to create a connection to the database and manipulate the data. PHP-FPM accepts the web server's request and compiles and executes the PHP script.
Install Docker and Docker Compose on your local machine
sudo apt update && sudo apt install docker.io && sudo apt install docker-compose
The repository contains the files needed to run the application. From within the root of the project directory, follow the below steps in order to run the environment.
docker-compose up -d
In this step, Docker Compose builds the 3 containers in the background. (You can remove the -d flag to see detailed logs of the process.)
In any browser, got to localhost:80 in order to see the database entry.
