laravel 8, docker , boilerplate

Ubuntu 20.04, maria-db, memcached, mailhog, volumes bridged

You can install a fresh copy and make your own change with :

composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app && composer require laravel/sail --dev

Or if you have laravel installer installed with:
composer global require laravel/installer

laravel new example-app && composer require laravel/sail --dev

Sail is just required for the docker-compose.yml and Dockerfile files (robust ubuntu and php installation)

Based on the docker-compose.yml file from sail and the Dockerfile from vendor/laravel/sail/runtimes/8.0

changes in docker-compose.yml : WWWGROUP: '1000' AND WWWUSER: 'sail'

Start the first time with : docker-compose up -d --build

next, Start with : docker-compose up -d

Stop with : docker-compose down (stop and remove cont. )

docker-compose pause and docker-compose unpause (pause without removing cont. )

go and interact with the container with :
docker exec -it example-app_laravel.test_1 /bin/bash
or
docker exec -it example-app_laravel.test_1 /bin/sh
