aegir-project/development

A couple of scripts for easier Aegir development using Docker.

development's Issues

Aegir Hostmaster component installed is too old, compared with the Hosting component

Using this project to install Aegir for development, I noticed that it installs an old versoin of Hostmaser:

Hostmaster (Aegir) 2212149-tasks-refresh-config-dev (2017-Nov-23)
Recommended version: | 7.x-3.145 (2018-Mar-28)

By comparison, it install the lastest Hosting component:

Hosting 7.x-3.141+6-dev (2018-Mar-30)

Also, the Status reports mentions:

Info | Install profile | Hostmaster (hostmaster-2212149-tasks-refresh-config-dev)

dockerfiles: No such file or directory

Point 4 in readme
cd dockerfiles

File not found.

gMac:aegir gerard$ docker build --build-arg AEGIR_UID=501 --build-arg AEGIR_GID=501 -t aegir/hostmaster:local .
unable to prepare context: unable to evaluate symlinks in Dockerfile path: lstat /Users/gerard/aegir/Dockerfile: no such file or directory

Network doesn't work after start

Hello.

if I do for the first time

docker-compose up

it works ok and I can connect to http://aegir.local.computer:81

But when I do docker-compose stop
and after starting it again using docker-compose start

I can't connect to http://aegir.local.computer:81

Update drush

I use Aegir in Docker for local frontend development extensively but for latest version of Drupal 8 another version of Drush is required. Could you include it in the scripts?

Keep database in volume?

With the addition of these lines we can get easier access to the mysql database files.

    volumes:
      - ./aegir-db:/var/lib/mysql

This way even after a 'docker-compose rm' you get the same installation back. The instructions to destroy would need an extra line to clear the aegir-db directory.

I was discussing with @webfed that this might be an easy way to be able to transfer a development stack between a desktop and laptop.

prepare.sh should check for a docker deamon

On Mac one can shutdown docker deamon so prepare.sh could failed.

Maybe check for a running docker env / daemon first?

Upgrade PHP

Could you update PHP to 7.2? Use this environment for frontend development extensively. Would like to support further development financially.

How should we debug a drupal site/hostmaster?

The image misses ie xdebug which should be added I guess.

The /var/aegir folder looks like not owned by aegir user. I investigated and found out that it is owned by root
