Contur

Contur is an open-source command line application simplifying your local web development environment. It hosts your site using Docker containers so you don't have to install Apache, MySQL, PHP and PHP extensions on your own machine. Contur is written in Ruby and uses the Docker HTTP API.

• Ruby 2.6.0+ (recommended installation method via rvm)
• Docker (for Mac see this)

1. Install requirements (see above)
2. gem install contur

1. Create a .contur.yml file in the root of your repository
2. Launch docker
3. Run $ contur start to build the image, launch the MySQL container and the Contur container
4. Run $ contur restart to restart the Contur container

When you run the start command the following will happen:

1. Contur builds a Docker image with apache, php-fpm and a couple of PHP extensions and configure them to work together
2. Contur downloads and starts a MySQL container (of your choice or the latest one if undefined in the YAML)
3. Contur starts the container
4. Contur runs the init script
5. You can access the site on localhost:8088
6. If your root directory is empty, Contur will create an index.php file with a phpinfo inside

When you run the restart command the following will happen:

1. Contur checks if your image is up-to-date and builds a new one if needed
2. Contur kills the currently running Contur container
3. Contur starts a new container and re-runs the init script

The following happens in the container when you start it:

1. Export the specified envrionment variables (env section)
2. Runs the commands from the before section
3. Starts apache
4. Starts php-fpm to keep alive the container

The build file consists of sections: version, use, before, env. The minimal YAML file for contur to work properly:

---
version: 1.0

Version of the build file. Currently this is the only required section.

Allowed values: 1.0

---
version: 1.0

Specify the MySQL and PHP versions you want to use.

Current default PHP version: 5.6.25

At the moment specifying a PHP version is not working (to be implemented soon).

Default is the latest from Dockerhub

To connect:

• no username
• password is 'admin'
• host address: $MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_ADDR

---
version: 1.0
use:
  mysql: 5.6.20

Specify environment variables to use them in the before script or in your site

---
version: 1.0
env:
  THE_ANSWER: 42
  DOCTOR: Who

Run scrips before starting php-fpm.

---
version: 1.0
before:
  - composer install

---
version: 1.0
use:
  mysql: 5.6.20
env:
  YAML_DEFINED: envvar
  ANOTHER_ENV_VAR: Contur
before:
  - echo "Hello, $ANOTHER_ENV_VAR!<br />Generated at $(date)<br /> MySQL version $MYSQL_ENV_MYSQL_VERSION" > /www/index.php
