The Enso Command

Getting Started

Enso comes with the files necessary to run your project in docker. If you don't already have them you can publish them using Artisan.

php artisan vendor:publish --tag docker

If you are having problems with the above command you can also use a disposable Docker container to do this.

docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/opt -w /opt shippingdocker/php-composer:latest php artisan vendor:publish --tag docker

The Enso Command

The docker installation comes with a bash script called ./enso. This provides simple access to commands on different docker containers. It is essentially a wrapper around docker-compose.

If you want to know what this command is doing behind the scenes, take a look at the enso file. It's fairly easy to read.

Setting up an alias

You will probably want so set up an alias for enso. Add the following to your ~/.bash_profile.

alias enso='./enso'

The examples below assume that you've done this.

start

enso start

This will start all of the containers. They will be built if they don't already exist.

stop

enso stop

This will stop all of the containers. Databases etc will be preserved.

artisan

enso artisan migrate
enso artisan db:seed
enso artisan key:generate

composer

enso composer install
enso composer require some/package

test

enso test

Run phpunit.

npm

enso npm install
enso npm run dev

yarn

enso yarn install
enso yarn add lodash

bash

enso bash

Start an interactive bash console on the app container.

Anything else

If you don't provide an argument (e.g. just type enso) it will run docker-compose ps and show you a list of running docker containers.

If you pass anything that isn't in the above list, it will be passed to docker-compose. E.g. enso logs would be the same as docker-compose logs.
