Installation

Firstly: will create external volume

docker volume create --driver local --opt type=none --opt device=${PWD}/certbot --opt o=bind certbot-etc
docker compose up -d

then reloading for webserver ssl configuration

docker container restart webserver

The containers are now built and running. You should be able to access the Joomla installation with the configured IP in the browser address. https://example.com.

For convenience you may add a new entry into your hosts file.

Portainer

docker compose -f portainer-docker-compose.yml -p portainer up -d 

manage docker with Portainer is the definitive container management tool for Docker, Docker Swarm with it's highly intuitive GUI and API.

You can also visit https://example.com:9001 to access portainer after starting the containers.

Usage

You could manage docker containers without command line with portainer.

Show both running and stopped containers

The docker ps command only shows running containers by default. To see all containers, use the -a (or --all) flag:

docker ps -a

Starting containers

You can start the containers with the up command in daemon mode (by adding -d as an argument) or by using the start command:

docker compose start

Stopping containers

docker compose stop

Removing containers

To stop and remove all the containers use the down command:

docker compose down

to remove portainer and the other containers:

docker rm -f $(docker ps -a -q)

Use -v if you need to remove the database volume which is used to persist the database:

docker compose down -v

to remove external certbot-etc and portainer and the other volumes:

docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -q)

Delete all images, containers, volumes, and networks that are not associated with a container (dangling):

docker system prune

To additionally remove any stopped containers and all unused images (not just dangling ones), add the -a flag to the command:

docker system prune -a

to remove portainer and the other images:

docker rmi $(docker image ls -q)

Project from existing source

Copy all files into a new directory:

You can now use the up command:

docker compose up -d

https://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.file.php

You should make changes custom host configurations ./php-fpm/php-fpm.d/z-www.conf then must restart service, FPM uses php.ini syntax for its configuration file - php-fpm.conf, and pool configuration files.

https://www.php.net/manual/en/install.fpm.configuration.php

docker container restart joomla

add and/or remove joomla site folders and files with any ftp client program in ./joomla folder.
You can also visit https://example.com to access website after starting the containers.

The authorize screen, username: ${PMA_HTPASSWD_USERNAME} and password: ${PMA_HTPASSWD_PASSWORD} in the .env file.

phpMyAdmin

You can add your own custom config.inc.php settings (such as Configuration Storage setup) by creating a file named config.user.inc.php with the various user defined settings in it, and then linking it into the container using:

./phpmyadmin/config.user.inc.php

You can also visit https://example.com:9090 to access phpMyAdmin after starting the containers.

The first authorize screen(htpasswd;username or password) and phpmyadmin login screen the username and the password is the same as supplied in the .env file.

backup

This will back up the all files and folders in database/dump sql and html volumes, once per day, and write it to ./backups with a filename like backup-2023-01-01T10-18-00.tar.gz

can run on a custom cron schedule
