PHP APM with Docker

This document details how to install the PHP APM Profiler in your PHP application running on Docker or Docker Swarm.

Prerequisite

Follow the Retrace Docker Install Guide.

PHP Docker Setup

Dockerfile Configuration

Adjust your Dockerfile to include the PHP Profiler:

RUN mkdir -p /stackify-php-apm && \
    cd /stackify-php-apm && \
    wget https://download.stackify.com/stackify-php-apm/stackify-php-apm-latest.tar.gz;  tar -zxvf stackify-php-apm-latest.tar.gz; rm stackify-php-apm-latest.tar.gz && \
    ./install.sh

RUN echo "[stackify]" >> [php_dir]/php.ini && \
   echo "extension=stackify.so" >> [php_dir]/php.ini && \
   echo "stackify.application_name=PHP Application" >>  [php_dir]/php.ini && \
   echo "stackify.environment_name=Production" >>  [php_dir]/php.ini

Adjust [php_dir] to point to your PHP configuration path.

Start your application with the stackify shared volume.

docker run -v stackify:/usr/local/stackify [your-application-image]
