ddev/ddev v0.15.0

v0.15.0: Config override, improved logs, faster startup, Docroot detection

on GitHub

Installation/Upgrade

See the instructions but it's easy: macOS Homebrew: brew upgrade ddev. Linux or macOS via script: curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/drud/ddev/master/install_ddev.sh | bash. Or anywhere, including Windows, by just downloading the tarball or zipball and placing the executable in your path where it belongs.

Important Issues

To take full advantage of this release with an existing project, please

• Delete the .ddev/docker-compose.yaml (it will be recreated on start)
• Delete the "webimage" and "dbimage" lines in .ddev/config.yaml (or delete the whole file if you have no customizations)
• Use ddev config to update the project's image list
• ddev start to recreate the containers.

Important: Use docker 17.09 or 18.03 until a fix comes out:

As of 9 March 2018, the latest stable docker version (17.12) hangs regularly when using docker-compose and bind-mounted filesystems. The docker issue is moby/moby#35933. As a result, we're using 17.09 or 18.03 (edge) exclusively until this can be solved by the docker project.

Key changes in v0.15.0

• Allow Override of PHP Configuration and mysql/Mariadb configuration
• Improved logging for both web and db containers (ddev logs)
• Remove Restart Configs from Docker Compose Actions
• Database container now comes up much faster, meaning an initial startup for a new project is much faster.
• Automatic docroot detection - during ddev config ddev attempts to automatically detect the project docroot (and does a very good job), thanks @mglaman !
• Solved complaints from mysqldump and drush sql-dump about mysqldump arguments
• Fix composer failure related to pcntl_signal, #710
