Add new service using laravel sail - laravel

Question

I have a laravel 8 project created with composer. Then I added laravel sail by composer require laravel/sail and then executed command php artisan sail:install.
After sail up command, only mysql container was created and everything works well. But now I want to add redis to my docker container. How can I do this? I have no knowledge with Docker but laravel sail has made it very easy to use Docker. I want to add redis with the help of laravel sail. Is there any way to do that?

Answer 1

you can edit docker-compose.yml
In the services
laravel.test:
...
depends_on:
- mysql
- redis
...
redis:
image: 'redis:alpine'
ports:
- '${FORWARD_REDIS_PORT:-6379}:6379'
volumes:
- 'sailredis:/data'
networks:
- sail
healthcheck:
test: ["CMD", "redis-cli", "ping"]
then finally, in volumes:
volumes:
sailmysql:
driver: local
sailredis:
driver: local
You may also can start a fresh new project with
curl -s "https://laravel.build/example-app?with=mysql,redis" | bash
then refer the generated docker-compose.yml
after you edit, save it then run ./vendor/bin/sail build then only saild up -d

Answer 2

You can just issue the command php artisan sail:install again
Now select the services you need and separate them with ,
So for example 0, 3, 7
This will update your docker-compose.yml file and add the lines for MySQL, Redis, Mailhog. It might overwrite some of your old settings though!
Once you start sail again it will pull the services and you're good to go.

Answer 3

I know it is not the best solution but I think it's so easy.
Update your docker-compose.yml file using following lines:
version: '3'
services:
laravel.test:
build:
context: ./vendor/laravel/sail/runtimes/8.0
dockerfile: Dockerfile
args:
WWWGROUP: '${WWWGROUP}'
image: sail-8.0/app
extra_hosts:
- 'host.docker.internal:host-gateway'
ports:
- '${APP_PORT:-80}:80'
environment:
WWWUSER: '${WWWUSER}'
LARAVEL_SAIL: 1
XDEBUG_MODE: '${SAIL_XDEBUG_MODE:-off}'
XDEBUG_CONFIG: '${SAIL_XDEBUG_CONFIG:-client_host=host.docker.internal}'
volumes:
- '.:/var/www/html'
networks:
- sail
depends_on:
- mysql
- redis
mysql:
image: 'mysql:8.0'
ports:
- '${FORWARD_DB_PORT:-3306}:3306'
environment:
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: '${DB_PASSWORD}'
MYSQL_DATABASE: '${DB_DATABASE}'
MYSQL_USER: '${DB_USERNAME}'
MYSQL_PASSWORD: '${DB_PASSWORD}'
MYSQL_ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD: 'yes'
volumes:
- 'sailmysql:/var/lib/mysql'
networks:
- sail
healthcheck:
test: ["CMD", "mysqladmin", "ping", "-p${DB_PASSWORD}"]
retries: 3
timeout: 5s
redis:
image: 'redis:alpine'
ports:
- '${FORWARD_REDIS_PORT:-6379}:6379'
volumes:
- 'sailredis:/data'
networks:
- sail
healthcheck:
test: ["CMD", "redis-cli", "ping"]
retries: 3
timeout: 5s
networks:
sail:
driver: bridge
volumes:
sailmysql:
driver: local
sailredis:
driver: local
