awesome-compose/wordpress-mysql

Wordpress with MySQL

This example defines one of the basic setups for Wordpress. More details on how this works can be found on the official wordpress image page.

Project structure:

.
├── docker-compose.yaml
└── README.md

docker-compose.yaml

services:
  db:
    image: mysql:8.0.19
    ...
  wordpress:
    image: wordpress:latest
    ports:
      - 80:80
    restart: always
    ...

When deploying this setup, docker-compose maps the wordpress container port 80 to port 80 of the host as specified in the compose file.

Deploy with docker-compose

$ docker-compose up -d
Creating network "wordpress-mysql_default" with the default driver
Creating volume "wordpress-mysql_db_data" with default driver
...
Creating wordpress-mysql_db_1        ... done
Creating wordpress-mysql_wordpress_1 ... done

Expected result

Check containers are running and the port mapping:

$ docker ps
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE               COMMAND                  CREATED             STATUS              PORTS                 NAMES
5fbb4181a069        wordpress:latest    "docker-entrypoint.s…"   35 seconds ago      Up 34 seconds       0.0.0.0:80->80/tcp    wordpress-mysql_wordpress_1
e0884a8d444d        mysql:8.0.19        "docker-entrypoint.s…"   35 seconds ago      Up 34 seconds       3306/tcp, 33060/tcp   wordpress-mysql_db_1

Navigate to http://localhost:80 in your web browser to access Wordpress.

Stop and remove the containers

$ docker-compose down

To remove all Wordpress data, delete the named volumes by passing the -v parameter:

$ docker-compose down -v
