I'm going to give this a try. I'm curious about docker. Would you say that performance is about the same as a standard vagrant / virtualbox setup? what version of PHP are you running?
Yes I'm moving away from Vagrant and going to use Ansible+Docker in the future. Great stuff
I really like the idea of Docker, and we are looking to start using it with a rewrite coming up so this is a wonderful post, the only downfall is this really only benefits users on a Linux development machine, for those of us developing on OS-X we would still have to use a VM with a Linux guest and install the docker containers in that virtualised environment, correct?
Docker make use of some advanced Linux kernel-features...so yes, for OSX you still need Vagrant. Why anybody would want to use OSX in the first place is beyond me though :) But, Vagrant is still a great tool!
I just wrote up a blog post about using Docker with Laravel with 5 new custom built Docker images specifically built for Laravel. Splitting up the processes into individual containers is best practice rather than running everything in one Docker container and SSH'ing into it.
