Drupal Base Image for Docker

This image provides a basic runtime for Drupal projects. It's designed for CI but is also suitable for local development environments using docker-compose. This image is similar to the official Drupal image but does not include the Drupal core files, allowing you to mount your own codebase.

Image Variants

This repository contains two main variants of the Drupal base image:

• apache-bookworm: Based on Debian Bookworm with Apache.
• fpm-alpine: Based on Alpine Linux with PHP-FPM.

Choose the image that best fits your needs. The Apache image is a good choice for a simple, all-in-one container, while the FPM image is ideal for use with a separate web server like Nginx.

Usage

Apache

The Apache image is straightforward to use. Mount your Drupal codebase to /var/www/html in the container.

Here is an example docker-compose.yml snippet:

services:
  drupal:
    image: hussainweb/drupal-base:php8.4
    volumes:
      - ./path/to/your/drupal/root:/var/www/html
    ports:
      - "8080:80"
    restart: always

FPM-Alpine

The FPM-Alpine image requires a separate web server. The following example uses Nginx.

Here is an example docker-compose.yml snippet:

services:
  drupal:
    image: hussainweb/drupal-base:php8.4-alpine
    volumes:
      - ./path/to/your/drupal/root:/var/www/html
    restart: always

  nginx:
    image: nginx:latest
    ports:
      - "8080:80"
    volumes:
      - ./path/to/your/drupal/root:/var/www/html
      - ./path/to/your/nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
    depends_on:
      - drupal
    restart: always

You will also need an nginx.conf file. Here is a basic example:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name your-domain.com;
    root /var/www/html;

    location / {
        try_files $uri /index.php?$query_string;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        fastcgi_pass drupal:9000;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        include fastcgi_params;
    }
}
