I've got a Wordpress/MySQL docker container, which I use for developing themes & plugins. I access this on localhost:8000.
It uses a Gulp build process & I am trying to add browsersync to the mix. I'm having a hard time getting the browsersync to actually proxy out of the container. From the Gulp output I can see that its generating the changes, just not actually making any changes in the browser.
Heres my docker-compose.yml, gulpfile, dockerfile & shell script.

The docker-compose.yml refers to the following dockerfile:
FROM node
# Grab our version variable from the yml file
ARG SITE_VERSION
# Install gulp globally
RUN npm install -g gulp node-gyp node-sass
# Install dependencies
COPY ./gulp-build.sh /
RUN chmod 777 /gulp-build.sh
ENTRYPOINT ["/gulp-build.sh"]
CMD ["run"]
which installs gulp and node-sass, and also copies the following gulp-guild.sh script into the container:
#!/bin/bash
cd /var/www/html/wp-content/themes/theme
# npm rebuild node-sass && npm install && gulp --dev
npm rebuild node-sass && npm install && gulp
The primary problem with your configuration is that you're pointing to localhost
in the gulpfile. This points to the local container, not your host machine, so browsersync won't be able to connect to Wordpress.
You first need to update the gulpfile to point to the wordpress
service, on its internal port:
browserSync.init(files, {
// The hostname is the name of your service in docker-compose.yml.
// The port is what's defined in your Dockerfile.
proxy: "wordpress:3000",
notify: false,
// Do not open browser on start
open: false
})
Then you need to add a port mapping to expose the browsersync server from your node
service. In your docker-compose.yml
file:
node:
ports:
- "3000:3000"
- "3001:3001"
You should now be able to access the browsersync proxy on localhost:3001
.
P.S. In case you have more than one site serving in one ngninx docker container, you can edit nginx config file for specific site in /etc/nginx/conf.d/somesite.conf and add new line: listen: 3000;
