docker-compose-laravel VS DBngin

They did... for example https://github.com/aschmelyun/docker-compose-laravel/issues/145 was an ascii art penis but it was deleted by github staff. Another one I saw was anime hentai art.

I've been maintaining and iterating on a basic Docker Compose setup for Laravel over the last year or so. It's worked well enough for local development, which was what I originally intended it for. Ever since I released it though, I've had multiple people sending me concerns and GitHub issues surrounding permissions problems.

If you'd like to dive into my setup, you can check it out on GitHub: github.com/aschmelyun/docker-compose-laravel/blob/main/docker-compose.yml

Here's a laravel project template that includes mysql, nginx, php, and redis as a docker-compose file: https://github.com/aschmelyun/docker-compose-laravel

I honestly just rolled my own with Docker and Docker Compose. You can check out what I've been using for every new project in this repo here if you want to see how I did it. If I was starting again from scratch today, I'd still probably go the same route (maybe consolidating the webserver/php containers into one image, but it's worked great for local dev so far).

I have a repo that I've been tweaking over the course of the last year that's my go-to starter kit for all of my local project's dev environments.

Check out DBngin or StackBricks.

My option of choice is DBngin. It is a simple tool which lets you add databases quickly for whatever you need including MySQL, Postgres, and even Redis.

Laravel Valet + PHP Monitor + DBngin

DBngin provides a free, all-in-one database management tool that includes MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Redis. After DBngin has been installed, you can connect to your database at 127.0.0.1 using the root username and an empty string for the password.

DBNgin is a great tool for spinning up a DB (MySQL/Postgres/Redis)

Ok I see what you mean, yeah that's a pain. You could turn off MySQL in MAMP and run a separate DB app such as DBngin (https://dbngin.com/), which makes it easier to start/stop different DB's but only offers different versions of MySQL, not MariaDB.

Laravel has a built in server which leverages local PHP. I use that combined with https://dbngin.com/ for MySQL + Redis. Then frontend is ran with local node (via https://volta.sh/, also very quick)
