Working with PHP project under WSL2 Docker on Windows

Setting up

Make sure you have installed WSL2 and Docker.

Organize your project. Prepare file structure.

Enable Docker WSL integration

Writing nginx.conf

In order to setup your web-project you have to configure Nginx or any other web-server:

server {
    listen 443 default_server ssl http2;
    server_name $hostname;

ssl_certificate     /etc/nginx/ssl/server.crt;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/server.key;
    ssl_protocols       TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2;
    ssl_ciphers         HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5;

client_max_body_size 10M;

access_log /var/log/nginx/application.access.log;

root /application;
    index index.php;

location ~ \.(js|css|png|jpg|gif|swf|ico|pdf|mov|fla|zip|rar)$ {
        try_files $uri =404;
        expires        +2d;
        access_log      off;
    }

if (!-e $request_filename) {
        rewrite ^.*$ /index.php last;
    }

location ~ \.php$ {
        fastcgi_pass php-fpm:9000;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        fastcgi_param PHP_VALUE "error_log=/var/log/nginx/application_php_errors.log";
        fastcgi_buffers 16 16k;
        fastcgi_buffer_size 32k;
        include fastcgi_params;
    }
}

server {
    listen 80;
    rewrite ^ https://$host$request_uri? permanent;
}

Here is a command for generating self-signed certificates:

And the main docker-compose file:

All right! That's all!
