This guide demonstrates how to set up Docker and Symfony Server development stack for Oro applications on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

Environment Setup 

  1. Install PHP 8.3 with all required extensions:

    sudo apt install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:ondrej/php

  2. Configure PHP:

    echo -e "memory_limit = 2048M \nmax_input_time = 600 \nmax_execution_time = 600 \nrealpath_cache_size=4096K \nrealpath_cache_ttl=600 \nopcache.enable=1 \nopcache.enable_cli=0 \nopcache.memory_consumption=512 \nopcache.interned_strings_buffer=32 \nopcache.max_accelerated_files=32531 \nopcache.save_comments=1" | sudo tee -a  /etc/php/8.3/fpm/php.ini
echo -e "memory_limit = 2048M" | sudo tee -a  /etc/php/8.3/cli/php.ini

  3. Install Node.js 20:

    sudo apt -y install curl dirmngr apt-transport-https lsb-release ca-certificates
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_18.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt -y install nodejs

  4. Install Docker and Docker Compose:

    sudo apt -y install docker.io docker-compose-plugin
sudo usermod -aG docker $(whoami)
sudo systemctl enable --now docker

  5. Install Composer v2:

    php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');" && php composer-setup.php
php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/bin/composer

  6. Install Symfony Server and enable TLS:

    sudo apt -y install libnss3-tools
wget https://get.symfony.com/cli/installer -O - | bash
echo 'PATH="$HOME/.symfony/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
symfony server:ca:install
