Sample configuration files to create laravel project with docker using wsl (window subsystem linux)

Created at 16-Mar-2024 , By samar

Here we have two most important files we have to configure to create a laravel project using docker on wsl (window subsystem linux)

Create file named Dockerfile and copy/paste below code in it

FROM php:7.4-apache

# Install dependencies
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
    git \
    unzip \
    libzip-dev \
    && docker-php-ext-install zip pdo pdo_mysql \
    && a2enmod rewrite

# Copy application files
COPY . /var/www/html

# Set permissions
RUN chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/storage /var/www/html/bootstrap/cache

# Expose port
EXPOSE 80

Create file named docker-compose.yml if not already exists and copy/paste code or make changes as per your requirement as per below code
