Docker MAC OSX Wordpress Quickstart

1. Launch Docker Quickstart Terminal. Note the IP address given to you. Edit your hosts file with sudo nano /etc/hosts. Add this to the bottom of your hosts file:

   <ipaddressfromdockerwithoutbrackets> mywordpresssite.dev

2. Navigate to folder (Must be under /Users/ due to boot2docker for Mac restrictions) and run docker-compose up

3. Visit http://mywordpresssite.dev:8081 and login to phpMyAdmin as root/root. Note the IP address at the top for Server. (e.g. Server: 172.17.0.2:3306). Copy resources/wp-config-starter.php to wordpress/wp-config.php. Edit wordpress/wp-config.php and set your DB_HOST to that IP.

   define('DB_HOST', '172.17.0.2:3306')

4. Visit http://mywordpresssite.dev:8080. Wordpress is already installed and working.

-How do I get the latest backup? Run the WP Migrate DB tool on the Dev server. Use the Docker profile. Import this into phpMyAdmin, or replace resources/mysql/wordpress-starter.sql, stop your docker container, then run docker-compose up.

-How do I delete all my docker instances and start with a fresh copy?

1. docker stop $(docker ps -a -q) && docker rm $(docker ps -a -q)
2. docker-compose up
