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 proxy ssl configuration
docker container restart proxy
The containers are now built and running. You should be able to access the WordPress installation with the configured IP in the browser address. https://example.com
.
For convenience you may add a new entry into your hosts file.
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.
The docker ps command only shows running containers by default. To see all containers, use the -a (or --all) flag:
docker ps -a
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
docker compose stop
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)
Copy all files into a new directory:
You can now use the up
command:
docker compose up -d

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

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

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
