Phalcon Installation In Docker - windows

Question

I am trying to install phalcon in docker and I cannot figure out how to do it.
I am searching through the web for solutions and couldn't manage to make it work.
I successfully installed docker for windows and it seems to work fine but i cannot find a way to install docker.
Can anyone help me to install phalcon in docker ?
Thanks in advance

Answer 1

You can create a Dockerfile which is compiling Phalcon for you:
FROM php:7.2-fpm
ENV PHALCON_VERSION=3.4.2
RUN curl -sSL "https://codeload.github.com/phalcon/cphalcon/tar.gz/v${PHALCON_VERSION}" | tar -xz \
&& cd cphalcon-${PHALCON_VERSION}/build \
&& ./install \
&& cp ../tests/_ci/phalcon.ini $(php-config --configure-options | grep -o "with-config-file-scan-dir=\([^ ]*\)" | awk -F'=' '{print $2}') \
&& cd ../../ \
&& rm -r cphalcon-${PHALCON_VERSION}

Answer 2

if you are looking for php7+apache+mysql with phalcon 3.4.2 then here is my solution. for phalcon 4 there needs to be done addition steps like installing psr otherwise it will give error for required dependencies.
CONSIDER FOLLOWING STUCTURE AND PUT FILES ACCORDINGLY
docker-compose.yml
www(directory where you will put your code)
index.php
.docker(directory)
Dockerfile
dump(directory just to persist your mysql data)
here is Dockerfile which you will put in .docker directory
FROM php:7.1.2-apache
RUN docker-php-ext-install pdo_mysql
RUN sed -i '/jessie-updates/d' /etc/apt/sources.list # Now archived
RUN apt update
RUN apt install -y \
apt-transport-https \
lsb-release \
ca-certificates \
wget \
curl \
nano \
dialog \
net-tools \
git \
sudo \
openssl \
libpcre3-dev
RUN wget -O /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/php.gpg https://packages.sury.org/php/apt.gpg
RUN sh -c 'echo "deb https://packages.sury.org/php/ $(lsb_release -sc) main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/php.list'
RUN apt update && apt install -y \
php7.1-curl \
php7.1-mbstring \
php7.1-gettext \
php7.1-gd \
php7.1-fileinfo \
php7.1-json \
php7.1-mcrypt \
php7.1-redis \
php7.1-intl \
php7.1-xml \
php7.1-zip
ARG PHALCON_VERSION=3.4.2
ARG PHALCON_EXT_PATH=php7/64bits
RUN set -xe && \
# Compile Phalcon
curl -LO https://github.com/phalcon/cphalcon/archive/v${PHALCON_VERSION}.tar.gz && \
tar xzf ${PWD}/v${PHALCON_VERSION}.tar.gz && \
docker-php-ext-install -j $(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN) ${PWD}/cphalcon-${PHALCON_VERSION}/build/${PHALCON_EXT_PATH} && \
# Remove all temp files
rm -r \
${PWD}/v${PHALCON_VERSION}.tar.gz \
${PWD}/cphalcon-${PHALCON_VERSION}
RUN a2enmod rewrite
this will be for you php and phalcon settings along with apache
and you can use docker compose to run all your required container to make up your application
here is your docker-compose file
version: "2"
services:
www:
build: ./.docker
ports:
- "8001:80"
volumes:
- ./www:/var/www/html/
links:
- db
networks:
- default
db:
image: mysql:5.7.13
ports:
- "3306:3306"
environment:
MYSQL_DATABASE: myDb
MYSQL_USER: user
MYSQL_PASSWORD: test
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: test
volumes:
- ./dump:/var/lib/mysql
phpmyadmin:
image: phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin
links:
- db:db
ports:
- 8000:80
environment:
MYSQL_USER: user
MYSQL_PASSWORD: test
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: test
after this just add index.php in www
<?php echo phpinfo();?>
after this localhost:8001 should b accessible.. happy coding. and if there is any improvements need to be done in this. please let me know. as of now this one is working super cool for me and my first phalcon configuration. wasted lot of time on it.....

Answer 3

You can install it through Dockerfile
Kindly, fetch this link according to your operating system
https://github.com/phalcon/dockerfiles
Plus you can make it through repo
https://hub.docker.com/u/phalconphp

Answer 4

For phalcon its important to compile on same hardware/cpu. Or you pass the flags to
phpize \
&& ./configure CFLAGS="-O2 -g" \
&& make -B \
&& make install
