services: php-fpm: image: jkaninda/laravel-php-fpm:latest container_name: php-fpm restart: unless-stopped user: www-data # For production volumes: - ./:/var/www/html networks: - default nginx-server: image: jkaninda/nginx-fpm:alpine container_name: nginx-server restart: unless-stopped ports: - 80:80 volumes: - ./:/var/www/html environment: - DOCUMENT_ROOT=/var/www/html/public - CLIENT_MAX_BODY_SIZE=20M - PHP_FPM_HOST=php-fpm:9000  networks: - default

• Start Containers

  docker compose up -d

• Create a Laravel Project

  docker compose exec php-fpm composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel .

• Generate Application Key

  docker compose exec php-fpm php artisan key:generate

• Create Storage Symlink

  docker compose exec php-fpm php artisan storage:link

• Fix Permissions

  docker compose exec php-fpm chmod -R 777 storage bootstrap/cache

• Run Laravel Migrations

  docker compose exec php-fpm php artisan migrate

• Access the Container Shell

  docker exec -it php-fpm bash

Example of using a custom nginx config:

version: '3' services: php-fpm: image: jkaninda/laravel-php-fpm container_name: php-fpm restart: unless-stopped volumes: - ./:/var/www/html networks: - default nginx-server: image: nginx:alpine container_name: nginx-server restart: unless-stopped ports: - 80:80 volumes: - ./:/var/www/html - ./default.conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf environment: - DOCUMENT_ROOT=/var/www/html/public - CLIENT_MAX_BODY_SIZE=20M - PHP_FPM_HOST=php-fpm:9000 networks: - default

server { listen 80; index index.php index.html; root /var/www/html/public; location ~ \.php$ { try_files $uri =404; fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$; fastcgi_pass php-fpm:9000; fastcgi_index index.php; include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info; } location / { try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string; gzip_static on; } client_max_body_size 15M; server_tokens off; fastcgi_hide_header X-Powered-By; } 

FROM jkaninda/laravel-php-fpm:8.3 # Copy Laravel project files COPY . /var/www/html VOLUME /var/www/html/storage WORKDIR /var/www/html # Fix permissions RUN chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html USER www-data

Place configurations in /etc/supervisor/conf.d/.
Example Kafka consumer process:

[program:kafkaconsume-worker] process_name=%(program_name)s_%(process_num)02d command=php /var/www/html/artisan kafka:consumer autostart=true autorestart=true numprocs=1 user=www-data redirect_stderr=true stdout_logfile=/var/www/html/storage/logs/kafka.log 

Place your custom php.ini file at:

/usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/ 

If you encounter permission issues, run:

docker compose exec php-fpm /bin/bash chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html chmod -R 775 /var/www/html/storage

Are you building a microservices architecture? Do you need a powerful yet lightweight API Gateway or a high-performance reverse proxy to secure and manage your services effortlessly?

Check out my other project — Goma Gateway.

Goma Gateway is a high-performance, declarative API Gateway built for modern microservices. It comes with a rich set of built-in middleware, including:

• Basic, JWT, OAuth2, LDAP, and ForwardAuth authentication
• Caching and rate limiting
• Bot detection
• Built-in load balancing
• Simple configuration with minimal overhead
• ...and more!

Protocol support: REST, GraphQL, gRPC, TCP, and UDP

Security: Automatic HTTPS via Let’s Encrypt or use your own TLS certificates

Whether you're managing internal APIs or exposing public endpoints, Goma Gateway helps you do it efficiently, securely, and with minimal complexity.

If this project helped you, do not skip on giving it a star. Thanks!
