Docker PHP images
---
Compatibility docker images.
### PHP 5.6
Built from the latest official PHP 5.6 Dockerfiles ([this](https://github.com/docker-library/php/tree/783878384a8f3953ed571e5a34ba0fe546726c85) commit),
with PHP compiled to use MariaDB's `libmysqlclient` connector. This fixes connections with MySQL 8.0+, which uses a default
collation not recognized by the official image's `mysqlnd` connector (`utf8mb4`).
## Available tags
- `5.6`
- `5.6-apache`
- `5.6-fpm`
## Installed extensions
The following modules and extensions have been enabled,
in addition to those you can already find in the [official PHP image](https://hub.docker.com/r/_/php/):
- `amqp`
- `bcmath`
- `bz2`
- `calendar`
- `event`
- `exif`
- `gd`
- `gettext`
- `iconv`
- `imagick`
- `intl`
- `ldap`
- `mbstring`
- `mcrypt` (_only PHP ≤ 7.1_)
- `memcached`
- `mysql` (_only PHP 5.x_)
- `mysqli`
- `pcov`
- `pdo_mysql`
- `pdo_pgsql`
- `pgsql`
- `redis`
- `soap`
- `sockets`
- `xsl`
- `Zend OPcache`
- `zip`
You will probably not need all this stuff. Even if having some extra extensions loaded ain't a big issue in most cases (especially in a development environment), you will very likely want to checkout this repository, remove unwanted extensions from the `Dockerfile`, and build your own image — for sometimes removing is easier than adding. 😉
## Composer
[Composer](https://getcomposer.org) is installed globally in all images. Please, refer to their documentation for usage hints.
Since 2020/11/01 both version 1 and 2 are installed, available through `composer1` and `composer2` commands respectively (`composer` in now a symlink to `composer2`).
[Prestissimo (composer plugin)](https://github.com/hirak/prestissimo) is installed globally in all images, for use with Composer version 1. It's a plugin that downloads packages in parallel to speed up the installation process of Composer packages.
## Contributing
If you find an issue, or have a special wish not yet fulfilled, please [open an issue on GitHub](https://github.com/chialab/docker-php/issues) providing as many details as you can (the more you are specific about your problem, the easier it is for us to fix it).
Pull requests are welcome, too! 😁 Please, run `make build` and `make test` before attempting a pull request. Also, it would be nice if you could stick to the [best practices for writing Dockerfiles](https://docs.docker.com/articles/dockerfile_best-practices/).
