Simple WordPress Development with Docker

Leverage Docker and Composer to create a simple dev environment for building WordPress sites.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Prerequisites

Before you can get started with using this starter, you'll need to install and set up both Docker Compose and Composer:

• Install Docker Compose
• Download Composer

Installing

Once both of the above are installed and set up, you can install the dependencies in composer.json:

composer install

Then, to get the project running, all you have to do is build and setup the project using Docker Compose:

docker-compose up

This command may take a minute to run. But afterwards, you should be able to navigate to localhost:8080 and see the WordPress 5-minute install screen:

Deployment

To deploy a site built with this site, you can either deploy this container project and run it using the default WordPress image or you can deploy the theme and plugins directory using any method you'd like.
