Stable release and Laravel Versions?
Hi Larry,
Great repository. Looks very promising. I was wondering whether this repository is under active development and whether there is a stable release for the repository.
Also, I was wondering what exactly was changed from the original Laravel 5.2 repository in this project. Say I wanted to clone Laravel 5.1 or Laravel 5.3 instead, how hard would it be to modify those versions so it would play nicely with laradock and phpstorm?
Thanks!
@edmundluong Actually, this project is intended as a robust example. It is best/better to fork LaraDock. From there, create a branch for your own use-case that can be kept current by merging updates from the 'upstream' LaraDock master. I am working on a PHPStorm configuration _guide that will be submitted as a PR to LaraDock. At that point this project will be deprecated.
@LarryEitel Great, thanks for the update. Looking forward to that configuration guide!
It will to the extent that Mac users can contribute as I run on Windows. :) I am on the road for a couple weeks so I don't have a clear thought as to when I will find the time to do this. :( Stay tuned. :)
Great @LarryEitel, I'm running Laravel dev on Mac Homestead Vagrant with PhpStorm and Xdebug working.
I have an iMac 27 with SSD, i7, 16GB Ram and i don't think it is slow. I'm curious and i would like to switch to Docker but do you think i will gain anything from that?
And can i have my databases preserved when shutting down my computer like on my Homestead Vagrant mashine?
I ran Vagrant before switching to Docker. I have enabled opcache with seems to speed things up. I do not have a prob with performance.
As for databases, yes they are preserved between restarts. HOWEVER, if you delete the volume image for some reason you WILL lose data.
I have not gone back to Vagrant. There was a modest investment of time to wrap your head around Docker ... but I think it was worth it. :)
Thank you @LarryEitel for answering my questions.
I have a feeling i two wont use Vagrant if i just can get LaraDock to work on my Mac. I also need to be able to run all my project in the same containers and just ad new paths in thew docker-compose.yml and edit my host file with domain aliases pointing to the Docker container.
I get "Server not available" on http://localhost and http://127.0.0.1 even thought all containers are running. In the docker-compose.yml it says "IMPORTANT: Replace with your Docker Host IP" but i cant figure out how to retrieve that IP. When i used Docker Machine i could run an command to get the IP but now i run Docker Native for Mac and i cant?
I feel i'm almost there so i would be so grateful for some hints on how to get this working.
