| PHP version | Corresponding tag |
--------------|---------------------
| 8.2.12 | `tomsik68/xampp:8`|
| 7.4.33 | `tomsik68/xampp:7` |
| 5.6.40 | `tomsik68/xampp:5` |
For PHP 8, start your container like this:
```bash
docker run --name myXampp -p 41061:22 -p 41062:80 -d -v ~/my_web_pages:/www tomsik68/xampp:8
```
docker-xampp

This image is intended for PHP+MySQL development. For convenience, it also runs SSH server to connect to. __Both MySQL and phpmyadmin use default XAMPP password__.
## Any questions?
Please read this readme before asking anything.
If you didn't find answer to your question, [create an issue](https://github.com/tomsik68/docker-xampp/issues) or just [ask on Gitter](https://gitter.im/docker-xampp/community). I'll try to help if I can!
## Running the image
This image uses /www directory for your page files, so you need to mount it.
```
docker run --name myXampp -p 41061:22 -p 41062:80 -d -v ~/my_web_pages:/www tomsik68/xampp
```
The command above will expose the SSH server on port 41061 and HTTP server on port 41062.
Feel free to use your own name for the container.
To browse to your web page, visit this URL: [http://localhost:41062/www](http://localhost:41062/www)
And to open up the XAMPP interface: [http://localhost:41062/](http://localhost:41062/)
## Default credentials
service | username | password
------- | -------- | ---------
ssh | root | root
## Additional How-tos
### My app can't function in `/www` folder
No problem, just mount your app in the `/opt/lampp/htdocs` folder, for example:
```
docker run --name myXampp -p 41061:22 -p 41062:80 -d -v ~/my_web_pages:/opt/lampp/htdocs tomsik68/xampp
```
### ssh connection
default SSH password is 'root'.
```
ssh root@localhost -p 41061
```
### get a shell terminal inside your container
```
docker exec -ti myXampp bash
```
### use binaries provided by XAMPP
Inside docker container:
```
export PATH=/opt/lampp/bin:$PATH
```
You can then use `mysql` and friends installed in `/opt/lampp/bin` in your current bash session. If you want this to persist, you need to add it to your user or system-wide `.bashrc` (inside container).
### Use your own configuration
In your home directory, create a `my_apache_conf` directory in which you place any number of apache configuration files. As soon as they end with the `.conf` extension, they will be used by xampp. Make sure to use the following flag in your command: `-v ~/my_apache_conf:/opt/lampp/apache2/conf.d`, for example:
```
docker run --name myXampp -p 41061:22 -p 41062:80 -d -v ~/my_web_pages:/www -v ~/my_apache_conf:/opt/lampp/apache2/conf.d tomsik68/xampp
```
### Restart the server
Once you have modified configuration for example
```
docker exec myXampp /opt/lampp/lampp restart
```
### phpmyadmin
If you used the flag `-p 41062:80` with `docker run`, just browse to http://localhost:41062/phpmyadmin/ .
### Docker compose example
```
version: '3.8'
services:
xampp:
image: tomsik68/xampp
ports:
- "44162:22"
- "41063:80"
volumes:
# Mount your web pages
- ./xampp/my_pages:/www
# Mount your apache configuration
- ./xampp/my_apache_conf/:/opt/lampp/apache2/conf.d
#Save MySQL data to be persistent
# add the dbs as needed
- ./xampp/mysql/mydb:/opt/lampp/var/mysql/mydb
restart: always
```
## Use a Different XAMPP or PHP Version
Currently, the Docker image is built only for PHP 5, 7 and 8.
If you need another version, you can easily build a Docker image yourself, here's how:
1. Clone this repo (local clone is sufficient, no need to fork)
2. Find the URL to a URL to your desired version. List of versions can be found here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/xampp/files/XAMPP%20Linux/
3. Build the image using e.g. `docker build --build-arg XAMPP_URL="https://www.apachefriends.org/xampp-files/5.6.40/xampp-linux-x64-5.6.40-1-installer.run?from_af=true" .`
