Building Custom Docker Image

FrankenPHP Docker images are based on official PHP images. Alpine Linux and Debian variants are provided for popular architectures.

How to Use The Images

Create a Dockerfile in your project:

FROM dunglas/frankenphp

COPY . /app/public

Then, run the commands to build and run the Docker image:

$ docker build -t my-php-app .
$ docker run -it --rm --name my-running-app my-php-app

How to Install More PHP Extensions

The docker-php-extension-installer script is provided in the base image. Adding additional PHP extensions is straightforwardd:

FROM dunglas/frankenphp

# add additional extensions here:
RUN install-php-extensions \
    pdo_mysql \
    gd \
    intl \
    zip \
    opcache

# ...

Enabling the Worker Mode by Default

Set the FRANKENPHP_CONFIG environment variable to start FrankenPHP with a worker script:

FROM dunglas/frankenphp

# ...

ENV FRANKENPHP_CONFIG="worker ./public/index.php"

Using a Volume in Development

To develop easily with FrankenPHP, mount the directory from your host containing the source code of the app as a volume in the Docker container:

docker run -v $PWD:/app/public -p 80:80 -p 443:443 my-php-app

With Docker Compose:

# docker-compose.yml

version: '3.1'

services:

  php:
    image: dunglas/frankenphp
    # uncomment the following line if you want to use a custom Dockerfile
    #build: .
    # uncomment the following line if you want to run this in a production environment
    # restart: always
    ports:
      - 80:80
      - 443:443
    volumes:
      - ./:/app/public
