### How to Install Bedrock with Docker

To install Bedrock using Docker, the most efficient way is to use **Docker Compose**. This allows you to define both your WordPress application (Bedrock) and your database (MariaDB) in a single configuration.

#### 1. Prerequisites
*   [Docker Desktop](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/) installed.
*   [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) installed on your local machine.

#### 2. Initialize the Bedrock Project
Open your terminal and run:
```bash
composer create-project roots/bedrock my-site
cd my-site
```

#### 3. Create a `docker-compose.yml` file
Create a file named `docker-compose.yml` in your root directory:
```yaml
version: '3.8'
services:
  db:
    image: mariadb:10.6
    restart: always
    environment:
      MYSQL_DATABASE: wordpress
      MYSQL_USER: wordpress
      MYSQL_PASSWORD: password
      MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: rootpassword
    volumes:
      - db_data:/var/lib/mysql
  wordpress:
    build: .
    restart: always
    ports:
      - "8080:80"
    environment:
      DB_HOST: db
      DB_NAME: wordpress
      DB_USER: wordpress
      DB_PASSWORD: password
      WP_ENV: development
      WP_HOME: http://localhost:8080
      WP_SITEURL: http://localhost:8080/wp
    depends_on:
      - db
volumes:
  db_data:
```

#### 4. Create a `Dockerfile`
Create a file named `Dockerfile` in the same directory:
```dockerfile
FROM php:8.2-apache
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
    libpng-dev libjpeg-dev libzip-dev zip unzip \
    && docker-php-ext-configure gd --with-jpeg \
    && docker-php-ext-install pdo_mysql mysqli gd zip
RUN a2enmod rewrite
ENV APACHE_DOCUMENT_ROOT /var/www/html/web
RUN sed -ri -e 's!/var/www/html!${APACHE_DOCUMENT_ROOT}!g' /etc/apache2/sites-available/*.conf
RUN sed -ri -e 's!/var/www/!${APACHE_DOCUMENT_ROOT}!g' /etc/apache2/apache2.conf /etc/apache2/conf-available/*.conf
COPY . /var/www/html/
WORKDIR /var/www/html
```

#### 5. Configure `.env`
Copy the example file and update it:
```bash
cp .env.example .env
```
Open `.env` and set these values:
```text
DB_HOST=db
DB_NAME=wordpress
DB_USER=wordpress
DB_PASSWORD=password
WP_HOME=http://localhost:8080
WP_SITEURL=http://localhost:8080/wp
```

#### 6. Start the Containers
Run the following command:
```bash
docker-compose up -d
```
You can now access your site at `http://localhost:8080`.
