How to run wp cli in docker-compose.yml

Question

Just starting in docker here

So I got this in my docker-compose.yml

version: \'3.3\'

services:
  db:
    image: mysql:5.7
    volumes:
         


        

Answer 1

This one worked for me:

  wpcli:
    depends_on: 
      - mysql
      - wordpress
    image: wordpress:cli
    links:
      - mysql:db
    entrypoint: wp
    command: "--info"
    container_name: ${COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME}_wpcli
    volumes:
      - ${WORDPRESS_DATA_DIR:-./wordpress}:/var/www/html
    working_dir: /var/www/html

Note that in the line:

links:
  - mysql:db

mysql = name of my service db = alias name I gave it, can be anything

Then you issue run wp like so:

docker-compose run --rm wpcli WORDPRESS_COMMAND
