Mautic docker server on alpine/nginx/php 7.1/local config volume

Compact Docker server for Mautic

Based on dirtsimple/php-server, and inspired by mingfang/docker-mautic, this container is an alpine nginx+php 7.1 runner for Mautic 2.15.1+ that stores all configuration and data in a separate location from the application code, allowing the use of a proper data volume or mapped directory. Unlike most mautic distributions, cron jobs are handled sequentially and intelligently, so that jobs cannot interfere with each other -- including slow runs of the same job.

In addition to the environment variables supported by dirtsimple/php-server, it also supports settings for:

• MAUTIC_PRS -- a space-separate list of Mautic PR ids to apply when the container starts. (This can also be set as a build argument, BUILD_PRS.)
• MAUTIC_JOBS -- a space separated list of mautic: jobs to be run by cron, in execution order. Defaults to:
  • segments:update
  • import
  • campaigns:rebuild
  • campaigns:trigger
  • messages:send
  • emails:send
  • email:fetch
  • social:monitoring
  • webhooks:process
  • broadcasts:send
  • reports:scheduler
• MAUTIC_JOB_OPTS -- options to pass when running the above jobs; defaults to --no-interaction
• MAUTIC_JOB_TIMES -- minutes at which jobs should be run; defaults to */5, i.e., every five minutes
• MAUTIC_DATA -- a directory under which all the instance's configuration, data, translations, media, logs, and cache will be stored; defaults to the volume /data. (Note: If you change this, you will also need to update the NGINX_WRITABLE variable to include the new value instead of /data; see the Dockerfile for the other values that should be included in NGINX_WRITABLE.)

In addition to the above, you can also configure various Mautic settings (e.g. database/SMTP/queue parameters) using environment variables; see the parameters_local.php file for a current list. If it's not clear what value should be used for a given environment variable, you can configure the setting(s) via Mautic's UI and then inspect the config/local.php file in your $MAUTIC_DATA volume to find the values. Values set via environment variables override those set via the UI.

Patches and Pull Requests

Because Mautic sometimes has issues that you may need PRs or custom patches to address, this image supports applying patches automatically. You can list a series of Github PR numbers as a build argument (e.g. docker build --build-args BUILD_PRS="7046 7399 7409"), or as an environment variable on a specific container (in the MAUTIC_PRS environment variable.)

Of course, not all patches you may need to apply are available on Github, so this image automatically applies any patches found in a subdirectory of the container's /patch-sets/ directory. For example, if you mount a directory as /patch-sets/my-patches, then any *.patch files in that directory will also be applied.

Applied patches are copied to /applied-patches, and are not reapplied unless the container is recreated or the patch files' contents change. (Note that changing a patch may result in the patch not being able to be applied, unless you first un-apply the old patch or recreate the container.)
