Where to put the php artisan migrate command

Question

Trying to deploy the laravel application on docker stack .What I am confused or not able to figure out is where can I run this php artisan migrate:fresh t

Answer 1

To run all migrate you need to be inside your container, for that you need to run your containers with docker-compose up, here u need to be with terminal in the directory where your docker-compose.yml file is.

after that, and with the same place of docker-compose.yml file, run this command to be inside your container:

docker exec -it name_of_container bash

and when you will be inside your container, go to your shared app inside the container, I think here is the app so cd app.

after all of this run:

php artisan migrate

Answer 2

This is how I solved it .Created a bash script called run.sh and added the php artisan migrations commands followed by the php serve command.

run.sh

#!/bin/sh

cd /app  
php artisan migrate:fresh --seed
php artisan serve --host=0.0.0.0 --port=$APP_PORT

Added entrypoint to the Dockerfile removing the CMD in the end which will run the commands desired.

copy ./run.sh /tmp    
ENTRYPOINT ["/tmp/run.sh"]

Remove the command from the docker-compose.yml

Answer 3

Yes, special script. I try to build deploy and testing throw docker-compose, so i run migrations in script before starting supervisor in docker-service "jobs":

#!/bin/sh

cd /var/www
php artisan migrate --seed

/usr/bin/supervisord -n -c /etc/supervisord.conf

And piece from my deploy-docker-compose.yml:

services:
    nginx:
        depends_on:
            - phpfpm ## NOT START BEFORE PHPFPM

    phpfpm:
        depends_on: 
            - jobs ## NOT START BEFORE MIGRATION
    jobs:
        # ....

This schema is not started in production yet;

UPD1

i had to create simple laravel command wait_db_alive:

public function handle()
{
    $i = 1;
    $ret = 1;
    while($i <= 10){
        echo 'connecting to host:'.config('database.connections.'.config('database.default').'.host').' try '.$i.'..';
        try {
            DB::connection()->getPdo();
            echo 'ok'.PHP_EOL;
            $ret = 0;
            break;
        } catch (\Exception $e) {
            echo 'error:' . $e->getMessage() .PHP_EOL;
            sleep(1);
            $i++;
        }
    }
    return $ret;
}

and edit init.sh to

#!/bin/sh

php artisan wait_db_alive && php artisan migrate --seed && /usr/bin/supervisord -n -c /etc/supervisord.conf

so, log for jobs:

jobs_1      | connecting to host:db try 1..error:SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused
jobs_1      | connecting to host:db try 2..error:SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused
jobs_1      | connecting to host:db try 3..ok
jobs_1      | Nothing to migrate.
jobs_1      | Seeding: ServicesTableSeeder
...
jobs_1      | Database seeding completed successfully.
jobs_1      | 2020-11-22 05:33:43,653 CRIT Supervisor is running as root.

UPD2

In some cases we need to start container without .env-file, then better init.sh for this:

#!/bin/sh
php artisan wait_db_alive && php artisan migrate --seed 
/usr/bin/supervisord -n -c /etc/supervisord.conf
