bcardiff/nginx-4-wordpress-fpm repository overview

⁠nginx-4-wordpress-fpm

nginx-4-wordpress-fpm docker images complements wordpress:*-fpm official images⁠. Apache alternatives serves http request. In order to allow PHP-fpm serve http request a webserver is needed (nginx).

This image uses PHP_FPM_SOCK environment variable to customize the location of the socket (usually port 9000 of php-fpm container).

This image serves the static files directly without going to the wordpress container.

This image is prepared to work with nginx-cache⁠ wordpress plugin using /data/nginx/cache as cache zone path. The plugin running in the wordpress container will remove the /data/nginx/cache directory cleaning up the cache for the nginx running in the nginx-4-wordpress-fpm container.

Note that both container need to share cache and html volumes.

Following, a docker-compose.yml that prepares a ready to use wordpress installation.
