## Wordpress Dev env with Docker

Makesure docker is installed: check version by
```sh
sudo docker --version
```

Create the dev folder and create docker-compose.yml:
```sh
mkdir wordpress_dev
vim docker-compose.yml
```

Paste following and save the file: docker-compose.yml
```sh
version: '3.3'

services:
   db:
     image: mysql:5.7
     volumes:
       - db_data:/var/lib/mysql
     restart: always
     ports:
       - "3306:3306"
     environment:
       MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: somewordpress
       MYSQL_DATABASE: wordpress
       MYSQL_USER: wordpress
       MYSQL_PASSWORD: wordpress

   wordpress:
     volumes:
       - ./wp-content:/var/www/html/
     depends_on:
       - db
     image: wordpress:latest
     ports:
       - "8000:80"
     restart: always
     environment:
       WORDPRESS_DB_HOST: db:3306
       WORDPRESS_DB_USER: wordpress
       WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD: wordpress
volumes:
    db_data:
```

Then start your wordpress docker container by:
```sh
sudo docker-compose up -d
```
Open localhost:8000 on web-browser

To stop the container:
```sh
sudo docker-compose down
```
That's all, wordpres dev folders will be availble in /wordpress folder
