debug :

• docker exec -ti <container-name> bash to run bash inside a running container
• docker logs <container_name> to see the logs on standard output of a container
• docker ps to list the container, and see their names
• duplicator
  • in installer.php :
    • delete first blank line
    • close last line comment
  1. download .zip and installer.php
  2. put them on the server :
     • in an empty file, accessible with url
     • then go to this file with url, and go to installer.php

todo :

• VOLUMES : it still not clear the better way to deal with volumes :
  • if i use named bind volumes with :

    services:
    	wordpress:
    	volumes:
    		- wp_plugin:/path/inside/container
    
    volumes:
    	wp_plugins:
    		driver: local
    		driver_opts:
    			type: none
    			o: "bind"
    			device: /path/on/local/machine
    

    • the folder on host has its ownerships changed, because it's recreated by docker
    • so the pbm is that if the plugin folder has no content yet, you need to use sudo to change its owner back to the user
    • instead i can use bind mount like in this answer :
    • https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77949712/docker-compose-ownership-of-named-bind-volume-with-specified-path?noredirect=1#comment137421603_77949712

    		- /path/on/local/machine:/path/inside/container
    

    • but if i do it with mariadb volume, container mariadb cannot work anymore
    • i dont have time to understand why, but certainly it doesn't have the appropriates rights anymore
    • and anyway what is the difference with this :
    • https://docs.docker.com/storage/bind-mounts/
    • https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/compose-file-v3/#volumes

    		- type: bind
    			source: ./static
    			target: /opt/app/static
    

• ERRORS LOG : it would be better to have a way to see all the error logs from all containers maybe with a volume for logs
  • in the meantime, here are the logs :
    • wordpress : /var/www/html/wp-content/ as precised in the wp-config.php file with DEBUG_LOGS variable, that i create in wp_entrypoint.sh
    • mariadb :
    • nginx :
• PROJECT NAME :
  • for the moment we need to modify the project name and url in the model.env file
  • that would be better to do it in the parent directory
• LOCAL URL :
  • adding local url in /etc/hosts don't work
  • makefile don't warn it's not there
  • it should also print the path
• SUDO :
  • some action needs sudo access :
    • writing localhost alias in /etc/hosts
    • erasing volumes
  • So, either :
    • testing if doing everything in sudo works well (right access to plugin dir for example)
    • or is it possible to run make as sudo, but inside of make only certain rules are made as sudo ?
    • or is it possible to do everything without sudo ?
• MULTIPLE SITES :
  • for the moment it's not possible to launch a second wordpress container since it will use the same containers names
  • so maybe doing something with prefixing names ?
