< h1 > Introduction < / h1 >
< p > LaraDock strives to make the PHP development experience easier and faster.< / p >
< p > It contains pre-packaged Docker Images that provides you a wonderful < em > development< / em > environment without requiring you to install PHP, NGINX, MySQL, Redis, and any other software on your machines.< / p >
< p > LaraDock is configured to run Laravel Apps by default, and it can be modified to run all kinds of PHP Apps (Symfony, CodeIgniter, WordPress, Drupal… ).< / p >
< h2 id = "quick-overview" > Quick Overview< / h2 >
< p > Let’ s see how easy it is to install < code > NGINX< / code > , < code > PHP< / code > , < code > Composer< / code > , < code > MySQL< / code > , < code > Redis< / code > and < code > beanstalkd< / code > :< / p >
< p > 1 - Clone LaraDock inside your PHP project:< / p >
< pre > < code class = "language-shell" > git clone https://github.com/Laradock/laradock.git
< / code > < / pre >
< p > 2 - Enter the laradock folder and run this command:< / p >
< pre > < code class = "language-shell" > docker-compose up -d nginx mysql redis beanstalkd
< / code > < / pre >
< p > 3 - Open your < code > .env< / code > file and set the following:< / p >
< pre > < code class = "language-shell" > DB_HOST=mysql
REDIS_HOST=redis
QUEUE_HOST=beanstalkd
< / code > < / pre >
< p > 4 - Open your browser and visit localhost: < code > http://localhost< / code > .< / p >
< pre > < code class = "language-shell" > That's it! enjoy :)

< p > < a name = "what-is-docker" > < / a > < / p >
< h2 id = "what-is-docker" > What is Docker?< / h2 >
< p > < a href = "https://www.docker.com" > Docker< / a > is an open-source project that automates the deployment of applications inside software containers, by providing an additional layer of abstraction and automation of < a href = "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating-system-level_virtualization" > operating-system-level virtualization< / a > on Linux, Mac OS and Windows.< / p >
< p > < a name = "why-docker-not-vagrant" > < / a > < / p >
< h2 id = "why-docker-not-vagrant" > Why Docker not Vagrant!?< / h2 >
< p > < a href = "https://www.vagrantup.com" > Vagrant< / a > creates Virtual Machines in minutes while Docker creates Virtual Containers in seconds.< / p >
< p > Instead of providing a full Virtual Machines, like you get with Vagrant, Docker provides you < strong > lightweight< / strong > Virtual Containers, that share the same kernel and allow to safely execute independent processes.< / p >
< p > In addition to the speed, Docker gives tons of features that cannot be achieved with Vagrant.< / p >
< p > Most importantly Docker can run on Development and on Production (same environment everywhere). While Vagrant is designed for Development only, (so you have to re-provision your server on Production every time).< / p >
< p > < a name = "laradock-vs-homestead" > < / a > < / p >
< h2 id = "laradock-vs-homestead-for-laravel-developers" > LaraDock VS Homestead (For Laravel Developers)< / h2 >
< blockquote >
< p > LaraDock It’ s like Laravel Homestead but for Docker instead of Vagrant.< / p >
< / blockquote >
< p > LaraDock and < a href = "https://laravel.com/docs/master/homestead" > Homestead< / a > both give you complete virtual development environments. (Without the need to install and configure every single software on your own Operating System).< / p >
< ul >
< li > < p > Homestead is a tool that controls Vagrant for you (using Homestead special commands). And Vagrant manages your Virtual Machine.< / p > < / li >
< li > < p > LaraDock is a tool that controls Docker for you (using Docker & Docker Compose official commands). And Docker manages your Virtual Containers.< / p > < / li >
< / ul >
< p > Running a virtual container is much faster than running a full virtual Machine. Thus < strong > LaraDock is much faster than Homestead< / strong > .< / p >
