Symfony project

Here is an example of a Symfony project configured with Protocode:

https://github.com/protocode-tech/symfony-template

Project Content

It contains a .protocode directory that holds all the configuration:

└── symfony-template/
   ├── .protocode/
   │  └── docker-compose.yml
   │  └── lifecycle/
   │    └── preUp.sh
   │    └── postUp.sh
   │ ... Rest of the files

• The docker-compose.yml file contains the Docker Compose configuration. It creates an app container based on PHP 8.2, exposes it publicly, creates a database container, manages file synchronization between the container and the host machine, and adds the most relevant Docker aliases.
• The lifecycle folder contains the project's initialization scripts. The preUp.sh file creates the environment files expected by Symfony and installs the official Intelephense extension for VSCode, and the postUp.sh file installs the dependencies with Composer.

How to Use It

In a similar project, you can either:

• Version the files in your repository and reference them in the repository configuration on Protocode. Retrieve the content of this directory and version it within your project, then in the Protocode repository virtualization configuration, select "Use the docker-compose file within the repository", and specify the location .protocode/docker-compose.yml. Then, in the "Initialization" section, under "Before container build", place .protocode/lifecycle/preUp.sh, and under "After container build", place .protocode/lifecycle/postUp.sh.
• Copy the content of the files into the repository configuration on Protocode without versioning them in the project. In the Protocode repository virtualization configuration, select "Create a custom docker-compose file", paste the content of .protocode/docker-compose.yml into the form field. Then, in the "Initialization" section, under "Before container build", paste the content of .protocode/lifecycle/preUp.sh, and under "After container build", paste the content of .protocode/lifecycle/postUp.sh.
