Craft CMS 3 Bootstrap with Nanobox

This repo contains the files and templates necessary to bootstrap a brand new Craft CMS 3 project using Nanobox.

Download & Install Nanobox

If you haven't already, create a free Nanobox account and download and install Nanobox.

Create a New Project Directory and Run the Bootstrap

# create a new project directory and cd in
mkdir craft3 && cd $_

# run the bootstrap
bash <(curl -sL https://git.io/v7Twg)

That's It!

The bootstrap will provision a dev environment, install Craft, and start the server. You'll find the IP and port where you can see the running app in the output.

Add a DNS Alias

Nanobox lets you easily add a convenient way to access your Craft app from the browser. To add a DNS alias, run the following from the root of your project (outside the Nanobox console).

nanobox dns add local craft.dev

After you nanobox run php-server, you'd be able to access the running app at http://craft.dev.

Building Out the Project

Once the project is bootstrapped, building it out is really simple.

Development

To fire up the app's dev environment and drop into a console in the environment, just run:

nanobox run

Your local codebase is mounted into the dev container. Any changes to the code are reflected in your dev app. You can add and load dependencies or any other dev tasks. Or you can simply start Craft.

php-server

Deployment

1. Create a new app in your Nanobox dashboard
2. Add your new app as a remote on your project:

   nanobox remote add app-name

3. Deploy to your live app:

   nanobox deploy
