What is PHP-FPM?

PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) is an alternative PHP FastCGI implementation with some additional features useful for sites of any size, especially busier sites.

Info

The container is optimized to run !Joomla with Nginx, so some PHP modules have been striped out. Check the build section to customize this container for your needs.

This image is based on the popular Alpine Linux project, available in the alpine official image. Alpine Linux is much smaller than most distribution base images (~5MB), and thus leads to much slimmer images in general.

Usage

docker run -d flowman/php-fpm:tag
