Run Docker

• Go to root directory
• run docker-compose build
• run docker-compose up -d

Install Pimcore within container

After starting the container some additional manual steps are needed.

Go into the PHP container with

• run docker-compose exec php bash

Install pimcore (see https://pimcore.com/de/download)

• run COMPOSER_MEMORY_LIMIT=-1 composer create-project pimcore/demo-basic-twig pimcore

The pimcore project structure will be created in the directory pimcore

Change owner for calling next commands.

• run chown -R 1000:1000 pimcore

The next command creates pimcore with an initial admin user and our defined database properties.

• run cd pimcore && COMPOSER_MEMORY_LIMIT=-1 ./vendor/bin/pimcore-install --admin-username=admin --admin-password=admin --mysql-host-socket=mysql --mysql-username=pimcore --mysql-password=pimcore --mysql-database=pimcore --no-interaction

• run chown -R 1000:1000 var

• run php bin/console assets:install web

Generate Thumbnails

Pimcore offers a lot of custom commmands. For generating thumbnails run php bin/console pimcore:thumbnails:image in you php container.

To preview images in admin panel, make sure you have the right permissions. As a workaround set chmod -R 777 web/var or chmod -R 777 var

Access Pimcore

You can now access pimcore frontend at http://localhost:8080 and admin at http://localhost:8080/admin

Troubleshooting

If you're getting the following error with Pimcore 6

* Warning: Declaration of Pimcore\Bundle\CoreBundle\EventListener\LegacyTemplateListener::onKernelView(Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Event\GetResponseForControllerResultEvent $event) should be compatible with Sensio\Bundle\FrameworkExtraBundle\EventListener\TemplateListener::onKernelView(Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Event\KernelEvent $event)

You can fix it with changing the pimcore/composer.json file and require and older version of sensio/framework-extra-bundle

The require part should look like this:

"require": {
    "php": ">=7.2",
    "wikimedia/composer-merge-plugin": "^1.4",
    "pimcore/pimcore": "~6.0.0",
    "sensio/framework-extra-bundle": "5.3.1"
  },

Then run composer update and the pimcore-install script again.
