Containerized phpBB installation

Post by thof »

A few months ago I was asked by my friend to create a small message board. I figured that since I already have a tiny VPS that I use to run some jobs periodically, it could also accommodate a phpBB installation. In general, I try to run any software in containers these days so I did the same with phpBB. So far I haven't noticed any significant issues with this installation, so I thought I'd share it with you.

Here is the repo: https://github.com/thof/containerized-p ... ion#readme

Here are the components I used:
* Forum software - phpBB 3.3.4
* Database - SQLite
* Web server - nginx:latest container image
* PHP-FPM - php:7.4-fpm-alpine container image
* TLS/SSL certificates - acme.sh container image
* Container runtime - podman (like Docker but daemonless hence uses less resources)
* Running multi-container applications - podman-compose (like docker-compose but for Podman)
