Here is a Makefile template. It provides some shortcuts for the most common tasks.
To use it, create a new Makefile
file at the root of your project. Copy/paste
the content in the template section. To view all the available commands, run make
.
For example, in the getting started section, the
docker compose
commands could be replaced by:
- Run
make build
to build fresh images - Run
make up
(detached mode without logs) - Run
make down
to stop the Docker containers
Of course, this template is basic for now. But, as your application is growing, you will probably want to add some targets like running your tests as described in the Symfony book. You can also find a more complete example in this snippet.
If you want to run make from within the php
container, in the Dockerfile,
add:
gettext \
git \
+make \
And rebuild the PHP image.
Note
If you are using Windows, you have to install chocolatey.org or Cygwin to use the make
command. Check out this StackOverflow question for more explanations.
