Suppose you are buiding a project that you want to provide Docker Container as well so that other team members can use the same project using same machine environment like your product machine:

First I am creating laravel app named MyApp::
# composer create-project laravel/laravel MyApp

Create a Folder docker-setup, copy the folder MyApp contents to laravel11-docker/src/
Not in the folder but top of that folder, write docker-compose.yaml, Dockerfile:

Dockerfile: [github link:  https://github.com/arzerin/docker-laravel/blob/main/Dockerfile]

docker-compose.yaml: [github link: https://github.com/arzerin/docker-laravel]

Key Points:

1. PHP Version: The Dockerfile uses php:8.2.10 (as per your request).
2. Dependencies: The required PHP extensions (pdo, pdo_pgsql, pdo_mysql) are installed.
3. Composer: Composer is globally installed for dependency management.
4. Laravel App: The app is mounted into the /app directory in the container.
5. PostgreSQL Database: The docker-compose.yml includes a PostgreSQL service (db), which is configured with environment variables for the database.
6. Ports: The application is accessible at localhost:8000 on your machine.

How to Use:

1. Place the Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml at the root of your project.
2. Ensure your Laravel project is located at laravel11-docker/src.
3. Run the following command to build and start the containers:docker-compose up –build
4. You should now be able to access your Laravel application at http://localhost:8000.
5. To use any command or file in container: docker exec -it laravel-app bash
   In the above line “laravel-app ” is the container name. You will be logged in that folder where you can run laravel basic command like php artisan serve etc
