The Devilbox is a versatile and highly customisable zero-conf PHP Docker stack supporting LEMP and MEAN as well as Websockets, Node, Python and Golang via automated Reverse Proxy integraton.

The main goal is to provide a reproducible development environment that runs on all major platforms and is able to switch and combine any version you need. It supports an unlimited number of projects for which vhosts, SSL certificates and DNS records are created automatically. Email interception and popular development tools will be at your service as well. Configuration is not necessary, as everything is already pre-setup.

All created projects (frontend or backend) will be able to communicate with one another to support the emulation of a complete microservice architecture or an API landscape.

Available Architectures: amd64, arm64
Available PHP Versions: 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2

🚀 Quickstart

❗ System Requirements
The Devilbox runs on all major operating systems and its only requirement is Docker and Docker Compose:

Linux OSX Windows Plus Docker

    cp env-example .env

Linux: Run

⚠️ Important: Ensure that nothing is listening on port 80 and 443 on your host system. These ports are required by the Devilbox webserver.


  1. Start httpd, php and mysql container
    # This step may take a few minutes as required
    # Docker images have to be pulled initially.
    
    # Inside the Devilbox git directory
    docker-compose up httpd php mysql
  2. Visit http://localhost in your browser

🚀 Install and Run: MacOS

MacOS: Install

  1. Download the Devilbox

  2. Enter the Devilbox git directory
    cd devilbox
  3. Copy the default environment file
    cp env-example .env

MacOS: Run

⚠️ Important: Ensure that nothing is listening on port 80 and 443 on your host system. These ports are required by the Devilbox webserver.


  1. Start httpd, php and mysql container
    # This step may take a few minutes as required
    # Docker images have to be pulled initially.
    
    # Inside the Devilbox git directory
    docker-compose up httpd php mysql
  2. Visit http://localhost in your browser

🚀 Install and Run: Windows
Note: If you are using WSL2, refer to the Linux guide instead.

Windows: Install

  1. Clone https://github.com/cytopia/devilbox to C:\devilbox with Git for Windows
  2. Copy C:\devilbox\env-example to C:\devilbox.env

Windows: Run

⚠️ Important: Ensure that nothing is listening on port 80 and 443 on your host system. These ports are required by the Devilbox webserver.

Open a terminal on Windows and start httpd, php and mysql container:

  1. Start httpd, php and mysql container
    # This step may take a few minutes as required
    # Docker images have to be pulled initially.
    
    # Inside the Devilbox git directory
    docker-compose up httpd php mysql
  2. Visit http://localhost in your browser

💻 Enter the work container

Enter the work container

The Devilbox allows you to work on your projects on the host system as well as inside the work container. Your project files will be available at both locations. The workflow ususally is:

  1. Use your prefered IDE (e.g. PhpStorm) on your host system to add and alter files
  2. Work inside the container to run common cli tools such as node, composer, npm, phpcs, webpack and many more.

To enter the work container, simply run ./shell.sh

  1. On Linux, MacOS and Windows with WSL2
    # Inside the Devilbox git directory
    ./shell.sh
  2. On Windows without WSL2
    # Inside the Devilbox git directory
    ./shell.bat

💡 Examples

Create your first project:

Example: Dummy Project
  1. Start the container you need:
    docker-compose up httpd php mysql
  2. Enter the work container:
    ./shell.sh
  3. Navigate to /shared/httpd:
    cd /shared/httpd
  4. Create your project directory
    mkdir dummy-project
  5. Visit http://localhost/vhosts.php
    You will notice that you need to create a htdocs/ directory
  6. Create htdocs/ directory
    # Navigate to your project directory
    cd /shared/httpd/dummy-project
    
    # Create htdocs dir
    mkdir htdocs
  7. Visit http://localhost/vhosts.php
    You will see that everything is now setup and your project is created and available
  8. Create an index.php file
    # Navigate to your project htdocs directory
    cd /shared/httpd/dummy-project/htdocs
    
    # Create a simple index.php file
    echo '<?php echo "it works";' > index.php
  9. View your project in the browser: http://dummy-project.dvl.to

The Devilbox Stack The Devilbox Stack

The Devilbox aims to be a swiss army knife for local development by providing you all the services you would ever need. To get an idea about the architecture behind it and to also see what's available have a look at its components and usage.

Smallest stack

This is the smallest possible and fully functional stack you can run

Full stack

To better understand what is actually possible have a look at the full example

💻 Modes of operation

Modes of operation

You can startup and operate the Devilbox in three different ways via docker-compose:

  1. Selective startup
  2. On Demand (add/remove container while running)
  3. Full startup

Selective startup

If you already know what kind of container you need before starting the Devilbox, you can just specify them explicitly.

# Inside the Devilbox git directory start httpd php mysql and redis
docker-compose up httpd php mysql redis

The Intranet will show you what container you have currently running:

Devilbox

On Demand

If the Devilbox is already started you can attach more container on-the-fly,

# Inside the Devilbox git directory attach mongo and memcached
docker-compose up mongo memcd

You can also shut down specific containers that you do not need

# Inside the Devilbox git directory shutdown redis
docker-compose stop redis

Full startup

If you just want to start everything, run docker-compose up without any arguments

# Inside the Devilbox git directory start them all
docker-compose up

The Intranet will show you what container you have currently running:

Devilbox

🐋 Available Container

Available Container

The following table lists all integrated and pre-configured Docker container shipped by the Devilbox. Only the webserver and PHP container are mandatory, all others are optional and don't need to be started.

Each of them is also available in multiple different versions in order to reflect your exact desired environment.

Accel Web App SQL NoSQL Queue / Search ELK Utils
HAProxy Apache PHP MariaDB Memcached RabbitMQ ElasticSearch Bind
Varnish Nginx Python (Flask) MySQL MongoDB Solr Logstash Blackfire
PerconaDB Redis Kibana MailHog
PostgreSQL Ngrok

Documentation: Available Container


📌 Version Matrix

Version Matrix

Every single attachable container comes with many different versions. In order to select the desired version for a container, simply edit the .env file and uncomment the version of choice. Any combination is possible.

Run different versions

Apache Nginx PHP MySQL MariaDB Percona PgSQL Redis Memcached MongoDB
2.2 stable 5.2[1] 5.5 5.5 5.5 9.0 2.8 1.4 2.8

7.4 10.8 12 latest
8.0 10.9 ...
8.1 10.10 15
8.2 latest

[1] PHP 5.2 is available to use, but it is not officially supported. The Devilbox intranet does not work with this version as PHP 5.2 does not support namespaces. Furthermore PHP 5.2 does only work with Apache 2.4, Nginx stable and Nginx mainline. It does not work with Apache 2.2. Use at your own risk.

Reverse Proxy Applications

As far as tested there are no limitations and you can use any application that creates an open port. These ports will be reverse proxied by the web server and even allow you to use valid HTTPS for them. By the built-in autostart feature of the Devilbox you can ensure that your application automatically starts up as soon as you run docker-compose up.

🌐 Devilbox Intranet

Devilbox Intranet

The Devilbox comes with a pre-configured intranet on http://localhost and https://localhost. This can be explicitly disabled or password-protected. The intranet will not only show you, the chosen configuration, but also validate the status of the current configuration, such as if DNS records exists (on host and container), are directories properly set-up. Additionally it provides external tools to let you interact with databases and emails.

  • Virtual Host overview (validates directories and DNS)
  • Command & Control
  • Email overview
  • Database overview (MySQL, PgSQL, Redis, Memcache, ...)
  • Info pages (Httpd, MySQL, PgSQL, Redis, Memcache, ...)
  • And many more...

The following batteries are available in the Devilbox intranet by default:

Adminer phpMyAdmin phpPgAdmin phpRedMin PHPMemcachedAdmin OpCacheGUI Mail viewer
