# Pixelfed Docker images
## Runtimes
The Pixelfed Dockerfile support multiple target *runtimes* ([Apache](#apache), [Nginx + FPM](#nginx), and [fpm](#fpm)).
You can consider a *runtime* target as individual Dockerfiles, but instead, all of them are build from the same optimized Dockerfile, sharing +90% of their configuration and packages.
### Apache
Building a custom Pixelfed Docker image using Apache + mod_php can be achieved the following way.
#### docker build (Apache)
```shell
docker build \
-f contrib/docker/Dockerfile \
--target apache-runtime \
--tag <docker hub user>/<docker hub repo> \
.
```
#### docker compose (Apache)
```yaml
version: "3"
services:
app:
build:
context: .
dockerfile: contrib/docker/Dockerfile
target: apache-runtime
```
### Nginx
Building a custom Pixelfed Docker image using nginx + FPM can be achieved the following way.
#### docker build (nginx)
```shell
docker build \
-f contrib/docker/Dockerfile \
--target nginx-runtime \
--build-arg 'PHP_BASE_TYPE=fpm' \
--tag <docker hub user>/<docker hub repo> \
.
```
#### docker compose (nginx)
```yaml
version: "3"
services:
app:
build:
context: .
dockerfile: contrib/docker/Dockerfile
target: nginx-runtime
args:
PHP_BASE_TYPE: fpm
```
### FPM
Building a custom Pixelfed Docker image using FPM (only) can be achieved the following way.
#### docker build (fpm)
```shell
docker build \
-f contrib/docker/Dockerfile \
--target fpm-runtime \
--build-arg 'PHP_BASE_TYPE=fpm' \
--tag <docker hub user>/<docker hub repo> \
.
```
#### docker compose (fpm)
```yaml
version: "3"
services:
app:
build:
context: .
dockerfile: contrib/docker/Dockerfile
target: fpm-runtime
args:
PHP_BASE_TYPE: fpm
```
## Customizing your `Dockerfile`
### Running commands on container start
#### Description
When a Pixelfed container starts up, the [`ENTRYPOINT`](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#entrypoint) script will
1. Search the `/docker/entrypoint.d/` directory for files and for each file (in lexical order).
1. Check if the file is executable.
1. If the file is *not* executable, print an error and exit the container.
1. If the file has the extension `.envsh` the file will be [sourced](https://superuser.com/a/46146).
1. If the file has the extension `.sh` the file will be run like a normal script.
1. Any other file extension will log a warning and will be ignored.
#### Debugging
You can set environment variable `ENTRYPOINT_DEBUG=1` to show verbose output of what each `entrypoint.d` script is doing.
You can also `docker exec` or `docker run` into a container and run `/`
#### Included scripts
* `/docker/entrypoint.d/04-defaults.envsh` calculates Docker container environment variables needed for [templating](#templating) configuration files.
* `/docker/entrypoint.d/05-templating.sh` renders [template](#templating) configuration files.
* `/docker/entrypoint.d/10-storage.sh` ensures Pixelfed storage related permissions and commands are run.
* `//docker/entrypoint.d/15-storage-permissions.sh` (optionally) ensures permissions for files are corrected (see [fixing ownership on startup](#fixing-ownership-on-startup))
* `/docker/entrypoint.d/20-horizon.sh` ensures [Laravel Horizon](https://laravel.com/docs/master/horizon) used by Pixelfed is configured
* `/docker/entrypoint.d/30-cache.sh` ensures all Pixelfed caches (router, view, config) is warmed
#### Disabling entrypoint or individual scripts
To disable the entire entrypoint you can set the variable `ENTRYPOINT_SKIP=1`.
To disable individual entrypoint scripts you can add the filename to the space (`" "`) separated variable `ENTRYPOINT_SKIP_SCRIPTS`. (example: `ENTRYPOINT_SKIP_SCRIPTS="10-storage.sh 30-cache.sh"`)
### Templating
The Docker container can do some basic templating (more like variable replacement) as part of the entrypoint scripts via [gomplate](https://docs.gomplate.ca/).
Any file put in the `/docker/templates/` directory will be templated and written to the right directory.
#### File path examples
1. To template `/usr/local/etc/php/php.ini` in the container put the source file in `/docker/templates/usr/local/etc/php/php.ini`.
1. To template `/a/fantastic/example.txt` in the container put the source file in `/docker/templates/a/fantastic/example.txt`.
1. To template `/some/path/anywhere` in the container put the source file in `/docker/templates/a/fantastic/example.txt`.
#### Available variables
Variables available for templating are sourced (in order, so *last* source takes precedence) like this:
1. `env:` in your `docker-compose.yml` or `-e` in your `docker run` / `docker compose run`
1. Any exported variables in `.envsh` files loaded *before* `05-templating.sh` (e.g. any file with `04-`, `03-`, `02-`, `01-` or `00-` prefix)
1. All key/value pairs in `/var/www/.env.docker`
1. All key/value pairs in `/var/www/.env`
#### Template guide 101
Please see the [`gomplate` documentation](https://docs.gomplate.ca/) for a more comprehensive overview.
The most frequent use-case you have is likely to print a environment variable (or a default value if it's missing), so this is how to do that:
* `{{ getenv "VAR_NAME" }}` print an environment variable and **fail** if the variable is not set. ([docs](https://docs.gomplate.ca/functions/env/#envgetenv))
* `{{ getenv "VAR_NAME" "default" }}` print an environment variable and print `default` if the variable is not set. ([docs](https://docs.gomplate.ca/functions/env/#envgetenv))
The script will *fail* if you reference a variable that does not exist (and don't have a default value) in a template.
Please see the
* [`gomplate` syntax documentation](https://docs.gomplate.ca/syntax/)
* [`gomplate` functions documentation](https://docs.gomplate.ca/functions/)
### Fixing ownership on startup
You can set the environment variable `ENTRYPOINT_ENSURE_OWNERSHIP_PATHS` to a list of paths that should have their `$USER` and `$GROUP` ownership changed to the configured runtime user and group during container bootstrapping.
The variable is a space-delimited list shown below and accepts both relative and absolute paths:
* `ENTRYPOINT_ENSURE_OWNERSHIP_PATHS="./storage ./bootstrap"`
* `ENTRYPOINT_ENSURE_OWNERSHIP_PATHS="/some/other/folder"`
## Build settings (arguments)
The Pixelfed Dockerfile utilizes [Docker Multi-stage builds](https://docs.docker.com/build/building/multi-stage/) and [Build arguments](https://docs.docker.com/build/guide/build-args/).
Using *build arguments* allow us to create a flexible and more maintainable Dockerfile, supporting [multiple runtimes](#runtimes) ([FPM](#fpm), [Nginx](#nginx), [Apache + mod_php](#apache)) and end-user flexibility without having to fork or copy the Dockerfile.
*Build arguments* can be configured using `--build-arg 'name=value'` for `docker build`, `docker compose build` and `docker buildx build`. For `docker-compose.yml` the `args` key for [`build`](https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/compose-file-v3/#build) can be used.
### `PHP_VERSION`
The `PHP` version to use when building the runtime container.
Any valid Docker Hub PHP version is acceptable here, as long as it's [published to Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/_/php/tags)
**Example values**:
* `8` will use the latest version of PHP 8
* `8.1` will use the latest version of PHP 8.1
* `8.2.14` will use PHP 8.2.14
* `latest` will use whatever is the latest PHP version
**Default value**: `8.1`
### `PHP_PECL_EXTENSIONS`
PECL extensions to install via `pecl install`
Use [PHP_PECL_EXTENSIONS_EXTRA](#php_pecl_extensions_extra) if you want to add *additional* extenstions.
Only change this setting if you want to change the baseline extensions.
See the [`PECL extensions` documentation on Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/_/php) for more information.
**Default value**: `imagick redis`
### `PHP_PECL_EXTENSIONS_EXTRA`
Extra PECL extensions (separated by space) to install via `pecl install`
See the [`PECL extensions` documentation on Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/_/php) for more information.
**Default value**: `""`
### `PHP_EXTENSIONS`
PHP Extensions to install via `docker-php-ext-install`.
**NOTE:** use [`PHP_EXTENSIONS_EXTRA`](#php_extensions_extra) if you want to add *additional* extensions, only override this if you want to change the baseline extensions.
See the [`How to install more PHP extensions` documentation on Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/_/php) for more information
**Default value**: `intl bcmath zip pcntl exif curl gd`
### `PHP_EXTENSIONS_EXTRA`

**Default value**: `""`
### `PHP_EXTENSIONS_DATABASE`
PHP database extensions to install.
By default we install both `pgsql` and `mysql` since it's more convinient (and adds very little build time! but can be overwritten here if required.
**Default value**: `pdo_pgsql pdo_mysql pdo_sqlite`
### `COMPOSER_VERSION`
