To add an image (software), just edit the `docker-compose.yml` and add your container details, to do so you need to be familiar with the [docker compose file syntax](https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/).

## View the Log files
The NGINX Log file is stored in the `logs/nginx` directory.
However to view the logs of all the other containers (MySQL, PHP-FPM,...) you can run this:
Before installing PHP extensions, you have to decide first whether you need `FPM` or `CLI`, because each of them has it's own different container, if you need it for both, you have to edit both containers.
>The PHP-FPM is responsible of serving your application code, you don't have to change the PHP-CLI version if you are planning to run your application on different PHP-FPM version.
>Note: it's not very essential to edit the PHP-CLI version. The PHP-CLI is only used for the Artisan Commands & Composer. It doesn't serve your Application code, this is the PHP-FPM job.
The PHP-CLI is installed in the Workspace container. To change the PHP-CLI version you need to simply change the `PHP_VERSION` in te .env file as follow:
For information on how to configure xDebug with your IDE and work it out, check this [Repository](https://github.com/LarryEitel/laravel-laradock-phpstorm) or follow up on the next section if you use linux and PhpStorm.
- Create a server with name `laradock` (matches **PHP_IDE_CONFIG** key in environment file) and make sure to map project root path with server correctly.
To control the behavior of xDebug (in the `php-fpm` Container), you can run the following commands from the Laradock root folder, (at the same prompt where you run docker-compose):
Note: If `.php-fpm/xdebug` doesn't execute and gives `Permission Denied` error the problem can be that file `xdebug` doesn't have execution access. This can be fixed by running `chmod` command with desired access permissions.
It's recommended for production to create a custom `docker-compose.yml` file. For that reason, Laradock is shipped with `production-docker-compose.yml` which should contain only the containers you are planning to run on production (usage example: `docker-compose -f production-docker-compose.yml up -d nginx mysql redis ...`).
Note: The Database (MySQL/MariaDB/...) ports should not be forwarded on production, because Docker will automatically publish the port on the host, which is quite insecure, unless specifically told not to. So make sure to remove these lines:
```
ports:
- "3306:3306"
```
To learn more about how Docker publishes ports, please read [this excellent post on the subject](https://fralef.me/docker-and-iptables.html).
1 - Run the NetData Container (`netdata`) with the `docker-compose up` command. Example:
```bash
docker-compose up -d netdata
```
2 - Open your browser and visit the localhost on port **19999**: `http://localhost:19999`

<aname="Use-Jenkins"></a>
## Use Jenkins
1) Boot the container `docker-compose up -d jenkins`. To enter the container type `docker-compose exec jenkins bash`.
2) Go to `http://localhost:8090/` (if you didn't chanhed your default port mapping)
3) Authenticate from the web app.
- Default username is `admin`.
- Default password is `docker-compose exec jenkins cat /var/jenkins_home/secrets/initialAdminPassword`.
(To enter container as root type `docker-compose exec --user root jenkins bash`).
4) Install some plugins.
5) Create your first Admin user, or continue as Admin.
Note: to add user go to `http://localhost:8090/securityRealm/addUser` and to restart it from the web app visit `http://localhost:8090/restart`.
You may wanna change the default security configuration, so go to `http://localhost:8090/configureSecurity/` under Authorization and choosing "Anyone can do anything" or "Project-based Matrix Authorization Strategy" or anything else.
If you're using Laravel, and you don't find the `REDIS_HOST` variable in your `.env` file. Go to the database configuration file `config/database.php` and replace the default `127.0.0.1` IP with `redis` for Redis like this:
3 - To enable Redis Caching and/or for Sessions Management. Also from the `.env` file set `CACHE_DRIVER` and `SESSION_DRIVER` to `redis` instead of the default `file`.
```env
CACHE_DRIVER=redis
SESSION_DRIVER=redis
```
4 - Finally make sure you have the `predis/predis` package `(~1.0)` installed via Composer:
```bash
composer require predis/predis:^1.0
```
5 - You can manually test it from Laravel with this code:
**Note:** We've locked Adminer to version 4.3.0 as at the time of writing [it contained a major bug](https://sourceforge.net/p/adminer/bugs-and-features/548/) preventing PostgreSQL users from logging in. If that bug is fixed (or if you're not using PostgreSQL) feel free to set Adminer to the latest version within [the Dockerfile](https://github.com/laradock/laradock/blob/master/adminer/Dockerfile#L1): `FROM adminer:latest`
_Note: You can customize the port on which beanstalkd console is listening by changing `BEANSTALKD_CONSOLE_HOST_PORT` in `.env`. The default value is *2080*._
1 - Run the Selenium Container (`selenium`) with the `docker-compose up` command. Example:
```bash
docker-compose up -d selenium
```
2 - Open your browser and visit the localhost on port **4444** at the following URL: `http://localhost:4444/wd/hub`
<br>
<aname="Use-RethinkDB"></a>
## Use RethinkDB
The RethinkDB is an open-source Database for Real-time Web ([RethinkDB](https://rethinkdb.com/)).
A package ([Laravel RethinkDB](https://github.com/duxet/laravel-rethinkdb)) is being developed and was released a version for Laravel 5.2 (experimental).
1 - Run the RethinkDB Container (`rethinkdb`) with the `docker-compose up` command.
```bash
docker-compose up -d rethinkdb
```
2 - Access the RethinkDB Administration Console [http://localhost:8090/#tables](http://localhost:8090/#tables) for create a database called `database`.
3 - Add the RethinkDB configurations to the `config/database.php` configuration file:
```php
'connections' => [
'rethinkdb' => [
'name' => 'rethinkdb',
'driver' => 'rethinkdb',
'host' => env('DB_HOST', 'rethinkdb'),
'port' => env('DB_PORT', 28015),
'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', 'test'),
]
// ...
],
```
4 - Open your Laravel's `.env` file and update the following variables:
4 - To start using eb cli inside the container, initialize your project first by doing 'eb init'. Read the [aws eb cli](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/eb-cli3-configuration.html) docs for more details.
3 - The NGINX sites include a default config file for your Symfony project `symfony.conf.example`, so edit it and make sure the `root` is pointing to your project `web` directory.
To change the timezone for the `workspace` container, modify the `TZ` build argument in the Docker Compose file to one in the [TZ database](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones).
For example, if I want the timezone to be `New York`:
```yml
workspace:
build:
context: ./workspace
args:
- TZ=America/New_York
...
```
We also recommend [setting the timezone in Laravel](http://www.camroncade.com/managing-timezones-with-laravel/).

<aname="CronJobs"></a>
## Adding cron jobs
You can add your cron jobs to `workspace/crontab/root` after the `php artisan` line.
MySQL 8.0 is a development release. You may prefer to use the latest stable version, or an even older release. If you wish, you can change the MySQL image that is used.
Open up your .env file and set the `MYSQL_VERSION` variable to the version you would like to install.
```
MYSQL_VERSION=5.7
```
Available versions are: 5.5, 5.6, 5.7, 8.0, or latest. See https://store.docker.com/images/mysql for more information.
You can forward the MySQL/MariaDB port to your host by making sure these lines are added to the `mysql` or `mariadb` section of the `docker-compose.yml` or in your [environment specific Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/extends/) file.
```
ports:
- "3306:3306"
```

<aname="MySQL-root-access"></a>
## MySQL root access
The default username and password for the root MySQL user are `root` and `root `.
1 - Enter the MySQL container: `docker-compose exec mysql bash`.
2 - Enter mysql: `mysql -uroot -proot` for non root access use `mysql -uhomestead -psecret`.
3 - See all users: `SELECT User FROM mysql.user;`
4 - Run any commands `show databases`, `show tables`, `select * from.....`.
Create `createdb.sql` from `mysql/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/createdb.sql.example` in `mysql/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/*` and add your SQL syntax as follow:
```sql
CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `your_db_1` COLLATE 'utf8_general_ci' ;
Modify the `mysql/my.cnf` file to set your port number, `1234` is used as an example.
```
[mysqld]
port=1234
```
If you need <ahref="#MySQL-access-from-host">MySQL access from your host</a>, do not forget to change the internal port number (`"3306:3306"` -> `"3306:1234"`) in the docker-compose configuration file.
Enabling Global Composer Install during the build for the container allows you to get your composer requirements installed and available in the container after the build is done.
3 - Re-build the container `docker-compose build workspace`

<aname="Install-Yarn"></a>
## Install Node + YARN
Yarn is a new package manager for JavaScript. It is so faster than npm, which you can find [here](http://yarnpkg.com/en/compare).To install NodeJS and [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/) in the Workspace container:
Linuxbrew is a package manager for Linux. It is the Linux version of MacOS Homebrew and can be found [here](http://linuxbrew.sh). To install Linuxbrew in the Workspace container:
When you start your docker container, Laradock will copy the `aliases.sh` file located in the `laradock/workspace` directory and add sourcing to the container `~/.bashrc` file.
Docker on the Mac [is slow](https://github.com/docker/for-mac/issues/77), at the time of writing. Especially for larger projects, this can be a problem. The problem is [older than March 2016](https://forums.docker.com/t/file-access-in-mounted-volumes-extremely-slow-cpu-bound/8076) - as it's a such a long-running issue, we're including it in the docs here.
So since sharing code into Docker containers with osxfs have very poor performance compared to Linux. Likely there are some workarounds:
[Dinghy](https://github.com/codekitchen/dinghy) creates its own VM using docker-machine, it will not modify your existing docker-machine VMs.
Quick Setup giude, (we recommend you check their docs)
1) `brew tap codekitchen/dinghy`
2) `brew install dinghy`
3) `dinghy create --provider virtualbox` (must have virtualbox installed, but they support other providers if you prefer)
4) after the above command is done it will display some env variables, copy them to the bash profile or zsh or.. (this will instruct docker to use the server running inside the VM)
You can use the d4m-nfs solution in 2 ways, the first is by using the built-in Laradock integration, and the second is using the tool separately. Below is show case of both methods:
In simple terms, docker-sync creates a docker container with a copy of all the application files that can be accessed very quickly from the other containers.
On the other hand, docker-sync runs a process on the host machine that continuously tracks and updates files changes from the host to this intermediate container.
Out of the box, it comes pre-configured for OS X, but using it on Windows is very easy to set-up by modifying the `DOCKER_SYNC_STRATEGY` on the `.env`
Laradock comes with `sync.sh`, an optional bash script, that automates installing, running and stopping docker-sync. Note that to run the bash script you may need to change the permissions `chmod 755 sync.sh`
1) Configure your Laradock environment as you would normally do and test your application to make sure that your sites are running correctly.
2) Make sure to set `DOCKER_SYNC_STRATEGY` on the `.env`. Read the [syncing strategies](https://github.com/EugenMayer/docker-sync/wiki/8.-Strategies) for details.
Specify the services you want to run, as you would normally do with `docker-compose up`
```bash
./sync.sh up nginx mysql
```
Please note that the first time docker-sync runs, it will copy all the files to the intermediate container and that may take a very long time (15min+).
Opening bash on the workspace container (to run artisan for example):
```bash
./sync.sh bash
```
Manually triggering the synchronization of the files:
```bash
./sync.sh sync
```
Removing and cleaning up the files and the docker-sync container. Use only if you want to rebuild or remove docker-sync completely. The files on the host will be kept untouched.
- You may run laradock with or without docker-sync at any time using with the same `.env` and `docker-compose.yml`, because the configuration is overridden automatically when docker-sync is used.
- You may inspect the `sync.sh` script to learn each of the commands and even add custom ones.
- If a container cannot access the files on docker-sync, you may need to set a user on the Dockerfile of that container with an id of 1000 (this is the UID that nginx and php-fpm have configured on laradock). Alternatively, you may change the permissions to 777, but this is **not** recommended.
Visit the [docker-sync documentation](https://github.com/EugenMayer/docker-sync/wiki) for more details.
5) Create (or edit) the file `/etc/exports`, make sure it exists and is empty. (There may be collisions if you come from Vagrant or if you already executed the `d4m-nfs.sh` script before).
*Note: If you faced any errors, try restarting Docker, and make sure you have no spaces in the `d4m-nfs-mounts.txt` file, and your `/etc/exports` file is clear.*
Make sure the ports for the services that you are trying to run (22, 80, 443, 3306, etc.) are not being used already by other programs on the host, such as a built in `apache`/`httpd` service or other development tools you have installed.
This error sometimes happens because your Laravel application isn't running on the container localhost IP (Which is 127.0.0.1). Steps to fix it:
* Option A
1. Check your running Laravel application IP by dumping `Request::ip()` variable using `dd(Request::ip())` anywhere on your application. The result is the IP of your Laravel container.
2. Change the `DB_HOST` variable on env with the IP that you received from previous step.
As stated on [#749](https://github.com/laradock/laradock/issues/749#issuecomment-293296687), removing the line `RUN sed -i 's/dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/mirrors.aliyun.com/' /etc/apk/repositories` from `nginx/Dockerfile` solves the problem.
## Custom composer repo packagist url and npm registry url
In China, the origin source of composer and npm is very slow. You can add `WORKSPACE_NPM_REGISTRY` and `WORKSPACE_COMPOSER_REPO_PACKAGIST` config in `.env` to use your custom source.
## I get `Module build failed: Error: write EPIPE` while compiling react application
When you run `npm build` or `yarn dev` building a react application using webpack with elixir you may receive a `Error: write EPIPE` while processing .jpg images.
This is caused of an outdated library for processing **.jpg files** in ubuntu 16.04.
To fix the problem you can follow those steps
1 - Open the `.env`.
2 - Search for `WORKSPACE_INSTALL_LIBPNG` or add the key if missing.
