Create a Laravel & Any Front-end Development Stack🐱‍🏍

Table Of Contents

Introduction

The purpose of this guide is to make your application as easy as possible to self deploy on the developers side without them bothering with installing mysql, nginx, and a ton of stuff just to start doing what they do best.

Requirements

Before we start, we're gonna need a few dependencies to get this project underway

Docker
Docker-Compose
Node/npm

To install Docker & Docker-Compose simply use the following commands

# Install Docker
$ curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh
$ sudo sh get-docker.sh
$ sudo groupadd docker
$ sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
$ newgrp docker
$ sudo rm -f get-docker.sh
# Install Docker-Compose
$ sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.29.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Or look them up yourself on the official Docker Documentation Install Docker

For npm go with nvm for ease of use

$ curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.38.0/install.sh | bash
$ export NVM_DIR="$([ -z "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME-}" ] && printf %s "${HOME}/.nvm" || printf %s "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/nvm")"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm
$ nvm install node
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Preparing Laravel Backend Api

Rather than go through all the hassle of installing php/composer and running the composer command to generate the laravel project you can simply use the following command to create the laravel project

curl -s https://laravel.build/folder-name | bash
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Notice: Change folder-name in the command with any folder name you'd like
Lets delete the package.json file in the root directory since we are not gonna be using it

Folder Structure

add the missing folders from the following structure and leave them empty for now
.
├── tools
│   ├── dockerfiles
│   │   ├── ci
│   │   ├── dev-images
│   │   └── prod-images
│   └── scripts
│   │   ├── ci
│   │   ├── local
├── app
├── bootstrap
├── config
├── database
├── public
├── resources
├── routes
├── server
│   └── config
├── storage
├── tests
├── client
└── vendor

Choosing Your Favorite Front-end

Or as people say "Pick your poison"
Any of the big 3 will do fine here

lets go with vue.js, inside the root folder run the following command

$ npm install -g @vue/cli
$ vue create client # You can use `vue ui` as an alternative to the cli to generate an interface and guide you through the steps
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

now you're gonna be greeted with a lot of options to choose from, those are entirely up to you choose with the space bar and I recommend having vuex router

notice: (At the current time of writing!) avoid choosing a unit/e2e/node-sass preprocessor with typescript as it can have some build problems / errors, simply install those after you finish compiling the project with npm like

$ npm install jest
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

in case the project is created with a repo simply do a

sudo rm -rf client/.git
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Alternatively you can follow the official guide yourself on vue.js or go with React or Angular(urgh)

Preparing Docker Images

Okay now for the fun part, lets start creating the images the application will use

  • Backend image

in tools/dockerfiles/dev-images/ create backend.dockerfile

# ! Image
FROM php:8.0.6-fpm-alpine3.12

# ? Set Working Directory
WORKDIR /var/www/html

# ? Install Mysql Extensions
RUN docker-php-ext-install pdo pdo_mysql

# ? Install and enable PHP Redis extension
# ? Redis extension is not provided with the PHP Source
# ? pecl install will download and compile redis
# ? docker-php-ext-enable will enable it
# ? finally apk del to maintain a small image size
RUN apk add --no-cache --virtual .build-deps $PHPIZE_DEPS \
 && pecl install redis-5.3.4 \
 && docker-php-ext-enable redis \
 && apk del .build-deps

# ? Install & Configure gd
RUN apk add --no-cache freetype libpng libjpeg-turbo freetype-dev libpng-dev libjpeg-turbo-dev && \
  docker-php-ext-configure gd \
    --with-freetype \
    --with-jpeg \
  NPROC=$(grep -c ^processor /proc/cpuinfo 2>/dev/null || 1) && \
  docker-php-ext-install -j$(nproc) gd && \
  apk del --no-cache freetype-dev libpng-dev libjpeg-turbo-dev

# ? Install git (required by Composer)
RUN apk add git

# *** Install Composer
RUN php -r "readfile('http://getcomposer.org/installer');" | php -- --install-dir=/usr/bin/ --filename=composer
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • Client image

in tools/dockerfiles/dev-images/ create client.dockerfile

# ! Image
FROM node:14-alpine

# ? Set Working Directory
WORKDIR /var/www/client

# * Install PM2 to serve the app
RUN npm install pm2 -g

# ? Serve the application on start
CMD command pm2 serve ./dist/ 8080 --spa --watch && pm2 log
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

those are the images we'll need for now

php & php-fpm config

whether or not you want to change something in php.ini or www.conf you should at least have them exposed in case you wanna edit them later
we'll do that by creating them and linking them inside the containers

in server/config create php.ini & www.conf files and paste the following gist content accordingly

nginx Config

We are going to need a self signed certificate, inside the project's root directory run the following command

$ sudo openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout ./server/key.pem -out ./server/cert.pem
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

notice: skip all the prompts with enter
once generated, lets open up key.pem permissions so that we can add it to the repo

sudo chmod 644 server/key.pem
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

for nginx config, create a default.conf file inside the server folder and paste the following content

server
{
    # Listen To HTTPS port
    listen                  443 ssl http2;
    listen                  [::]:443 ssl http2;

    # Define Domain Name
    server_name             localhost;
    server_tokens           off;

    # Index Fallback
    index index.html index.htm index.php;

    charset utf-8;

    # Redirect Everything to Front-end
    location / {
        proxy_pass                    http://client:8080/;
        proxy_redirect                off;
        proxy_set_header              Host $host;
        proxy_set_header              X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header              X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header              X-Forwarded-Host $server_name;
    }

    # Redirect everything after /api/ to Backend
    location /api/ {
        try_files $uri $uri/ public/index.php?$query_string;
    }

    # Handle PHP Files

        fastcgi_pass                  backend:9000;

        fastcgi_buffers               8 16k;
        fastcgi_buffer_size           32k;
        fastcgi_param                 SCRIPT_FILENAME $realpath_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        fastcgi_hide_header           X-Powered-By;

.env As a Blueprint

Before we proceed any further we must adapt the mentality of having our .env file as the true source of configurations, or at least the ones we want to mess with

This will be reflected in the next steps and emphasized upon

Connecting Everything

first of all, we need to stop our front-end dev server from intercepting anything after /api/ and redirecting the traffic to nginx

we can do that by modifying the vue.config.js file or the file that houses your webpack.config, if the file doesn't exist simply create it yourself

const BundleAnalyzerPlugin = require("webpack-bundle-analyzer")
    .BundleAnalyzerPlugin;

const plugins = [];

plugins.push(new BundleAnalyzerPlugin({ analyzerMode: "disabled" }));

module.exports = {
    devServer: {
        proxy: {
            "^/api": {
                target: "https://webserver/",
                ws: true,
                secure: false
            },
        },
        port: 8081
    },
    configureWebpack: {
        plugins
    },
};

next we are going to need to add some variables to our .env.example file to use in our docker-compose file and other stuff

# Define Application Specific Keys

create the docker-compose.yml file in the root directory and paste in the following content

# ! Docker-Compose Specification

Change all instances of StackName with your application name

Create a The init Script

Finally we get to the whole point of this guide, having the user start everything by running a single script which is what we are gonna do here

create init.sh file in the root directory of the project, run the following command from the terminal to give it execute permissions

$ chmod +x init.sh
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

paste in the following content

complete -F _shelper_completions shelper
# StackHelper CLI END
' >> $HOME/$shellrc
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Now lets add our cli script execution to the init.sh script by adding the following lines to the script file

# ! Install CLI
red_text_box 'Installing CLI'
./tools/scripts/local/cli.sh
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

note: after installing the pseudo cli you'll need to refresh your shell instance with something like

$ bash
$ zsh
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Create The Repo

At this point we're technically done lets create the repo and push it to your favorite repo hosting service (hub,lab,bucket...whatever) run the following command in the project's root directory

$ git init
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "First commit or whatever commit message you want"
$ git remote add origin  <REMOTE_URL> 
$ git push origin <main/master/whatever>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

now anyone clones the project, simply runs

$ ./init
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

and he's up and running

Future Plans

With your request I can add a couple of follow up guides that cover the following

  • Creating a CI/CD Pipeline for the Project
  • Building Production Images
  • Deploying Production Builds

so let me know if you'd like that

TL;DR

We've successfully create an easy to use development stack that starts up by simply cloning and running ./init.sh, a small pseudo helper cli that helps developers interact with the with the containers

If you understand everything and would just like a repo that has all this instead of going through all this as a learning experience
you can find it here

if you find any typos or any problems in the process or having some comments about something that you don't like please let me know so that I can fix it or improve upon it, whichever the case may be
