Description

The Mezzio Skeleton application currently does not have built-in support for Dockerization. This means developers need to manually configure their own Dockerfiles and potentially other Docker-related files to run the application within a containerized environment.

Adding Dockerization support to the Mezzio Skeleton application offers several significant benefits:

Simplified Development and Deployment: Docker provides a consistent and isolated environment for development and deployment, making it easier to manage dependencies, configurations, and avoid conflicts between different projects or environments.
Improved Portability: Docker containers can be easily moved and run across different environments (development, testing, staging, production) with minimal modifications, ensuring consistent behavior.
Enhanced Scalability: Docker containers can be easily scaled horizontally by running multiple instances of the application within separate containers.
Improved Resource Utilization: Docker's lightweight nature and efficient resource allocation allow for better utilization of server resources.
Best Practices: By including Dockerization in the Skeleton application, it promotes best practices for containerization within the Mezzio ecosystem.

This addition will enable developers to:

• Quickly and easily containerize Mezzio applications based on the Skeleton.
• Leverage the benefits of Docker for development, testing, and deployment.
• Start with a pre-configured Docker setup and customize it to their specific needs.
• Benefit from a consistent and reproducible environment for their Mezzio projects.

Developers can use the provided Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml files as a starting point for their own projects. They can:

• Build a Docker image using the provided Dockerfile.
• Run the application using Docker Compose.
• Customize the Dockerfiles and configurations to suit their specific requirements (e.g., adding environment variables, mounting volumes, configuring Nginx).
• Use the Dockerized application for development, testing, and deployment.
