kingsquare/php-tools repository overview

⁠PHP tools for easier docker based development

This is a simple docker image for running various PHP tools from the CLI / IDE.

⁠Usage

Go to your regular directory root of your app and choose what to do

⁠PHPUnit

docker run -it --rm -w /app -v $(pwd):/app kingsquare/php-tools:latest /phpunit

⁠PHPCodesniffer

docker run -it --rm -w /app -v $(pwd):/app kingsquare/php-tools:latest /phpcs

⁠PHPDocumentor

docker run -it --rm -w /app -v $(pwd):/app kingsquare/php-tools:latest /phpdoc

⁠Composer

docker run -it --rm -w /app -v $(pwd):/app kingsquare/php-tools:latest /composer

⁠Additional notes

⁠Xdebug

XDebug is loaded so no need to worry :)

⁠scripts

One handy trick is to create a few run commands for even easier use

i.e. ~/bin/phpunit

#!/bin/bash
docker run \
	-it \
	--rm \
	-v $(pwd):/app \
	-w /app \
	kingsquare/php-tools:latest /phpunit $*

for the other tools, you could replace phpunit with composer, phpdoc or phpcs

⁠ownership

One of the downsides of this way of using PHP tools is newly added files aren't owned by you. Thats something that leaves to be desired. You could use the -u $(id -u) flag for the docker run command but that way the group of the newly created files would still be root

⁠version information

In order to allow easier switching of the various tools between PHP versions. We've tagged the PHP version as the image tag. Thus using php-tools:latest will use the latest PHP stable, but php-tools:5.4 will use 5.4 ;)
