| 1 | +# Joomla Component Builder – Official Docker Images |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +These are the **official Docker images for Joomla Component Builder (JCB)**. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +Each image provides a **ready-to-use Joomla environment** with **Joomla Component Builder automatically installed** and optionally configurable via environment variables and CLI commands. |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +No manual installation. No guessing. Just run the container. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +--- |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +## 🚀 What You Get |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +- ✅ Joomla (official base image) |
| 14 | +- ✅ Joomla Component Builder (JCB) preloaded in the image |
| 15 | +- ✅ Automatic Joomla + JCB installation on first run |
| 16 | +- ✅ Safe one-time install (idempotent) |
| 17 | +- ✅ Deterministic, fail-fast container startup (`set -euo pipefail`) |
| 18 | +- ✅ Optional extension installation via URL or path |
| 19 | +- ✅ Optional Joomla CLI automation |
| 20 | +- ✅ SMTP configuration support |
| 21 | +- ✅ Runs as `www-data` (no root runtime) |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +These images are ideal for: |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +- Local JCB development |
| 26 | +- CI/CD pipelines |
| 27 | +- Automated component compilation |
| 28 | +- Reproducible Joomla build environments |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +--- |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +## 📦 Available Images |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +All images are published under: |
| 35 | +``` |
| 36 | +octoleo/joomengine |
| 37 | +``` |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +Examples: |
| 40 | +```bash |
| 41 | +docker pull octoleo/joomengine:latest |
| 42 | +docker pull octoleo/joomengine:6.5.7 |
| 43 | +docker pull octoleo/joomengine:6.5.7-php8.2-apache |
| 44 | +``` |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +> `latest` always points to the **highest stable JCB release**, Apache variant, using the highest supported PHP version. |
| 47 | +
|
| 48 | +--- |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +## 🧩 How It Works (Runtime Behavior) |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +When the container starts: |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +1. The **custom Joomla entrypoint** runs with strict error handling |
| 55 | +2. If Joomla is not installed and all required variables are present: |
| 56 | + * Joomla is **automatically installed** |
| 57 | + * Database is created/verified |
| 58 | + * Admin account is configured |
| 59 | +3. Once Joomla is configured (`configuration.php` exists): |
| 60 | + * Optional extensions are installed from URLs or paths |
| 61 | + * **Joomla Component Builder is installed automatically** |
| 62 | + * SMTP configuration is applied (if provided) |
| 63 | + * Optional Joomla CLI commands are executed |
| 64 | +4. The container continues running as `www-data` |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +This guarantees: |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +* ✓ Fails fast on misconfiguration |
| 69 | +* ✓ No silent fallbacks |
| 70 | +* ✓ No race conditions |
| 71 | +* ✓ No repeated installs |
| 72 | +* ✓ No root-owned Joomla files |
| 73 | +* ✓ Safe for repeated container restarts |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +--- |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +## ⚙️ Environment Contract |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +This image is configured entirely via environment variables. All variables are optional unless stated otherwise. |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +The entrypoint runs in **strict mode** (`set -euo pipefail`). Missing or invalid critical values will cause the container to exit early and loudly. |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +### Required (Directly or Indirectly) |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +**Database Connection** - at least one of: |
| 86 | +- `JOOMLA_DB_HOST` - Database hostname (optionally `host:port`) |
| 87 | +- `MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP` - Legacy Docker link support |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +**Database Password** - at least one of: |
| 90 | +- `JOOMLA_DB_PASSWORD` - Direct password |
| 91 | +- `JOOMLA_DB_PASSWORD_FILE` - Path to password file (e.g., Docker secrets) |
| 92 | +- `MYSQL_ENV_MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD` - Used when `JOOMLA_DB_USER=root` |
| 93 | +- `JOOMLA_DB_PASSWORD_ALLOW_EMPTY=yes` - Explicitly allow empty password |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | +### Core Configuration Defaults |
| 96 | + |
| 97 | +| Variable | Default | |
| 98 | +|----------|---------| |
| 99 | +| `JOOMLA_DB_USER` | `joomengine` | |
| 100 | +| `JOOMLA_DB_NAME` | `joomengine` | |
| 101 | +| `JOOMLA_DB_TYPE` | `mysqli` | |
| 102 | +| `JOOMLA_DB_PREFIX` | `joom_` | |
| 103 | +| `JOOMLA_SITE_NAME` | `Joomla Component Builder - JoomEngine` | |
| 104 | +| `JOOMLA_ADMIN_USER` | `JoomEngine Hero` | |
| 105 | +| `JOOMLA_ADMIN_USERNAME` | `joomengine` | |
| 106 | +| `JOOMLA_ADMIN_PASSWORD` | `joomengine@secure` | |
| 107 | +| `JOOMLA_ADMIN_EMAIL` | `joomengine@example.com` | |
| 108 | + |
| 109 | +### Auto-Deploy Requirements |
| 110 | + |
| 111 | +Automatic Joomla installation is performed **only if all** of the following are true: |
| 112 | + |
| 113 | +- Joomla is not yet installed |
| 114 | +- The `installation/` directory exists |
| 115 | +- All admin variables are present and valid |
| 116 | +- Validation passes: |
| 117 | + - `JOOMLA_SITE_NAME` > 2 characters |
| 118 | + - `JOOMLA_ADMIN_USER` > 2 characters |
| 119 | + - `JOOMLA_ADMIN_USERNAME` alphabetical only |
| 120 | + - `JOOMLA_ADMIN_PASSWORD` > 12 characters |
| 121 | + - `JOOMLA_ADMIN_EMAIL` valid email format |
| 122 | + |
| 123 | +If any condition fails, the container starts normally without auto-install. |
| 124 | + |
| 125 | +### Optional Extension Installation |
| 126 | + |
| 127 | +Multiple values must be **semicolon-separated** (`;`): |
| 128 | + |
| 129 | +- `JOOMLA_EXTENSIONS_URLS` - URLs to install after Joomla setup |
| 130 | +- `JOOMLA_EXTENSIONS_PATHS` - Local paths to install after Joomla setup |
| 131 | + |
| 132 | +⚠️ **URL validation is intentionally strict** (HTTPS/HTTP only, no IPs, no ports in domain). |
| 133 | + |
| 134 | +### Joomla CLI Automation |
| 135 | + |
| 136 | +- `JOOMLA_CLI_COMMANDS` - Semicolon-separated Joomla CLI commands |
| 137 | + |
| 138 | +Each command is passed as-is to `cli/joomla.php`. **Shell tokenization is not performed.** |
| 139 | + |
| 140 | +#### Example |
| 141 | +```yaml |
| 142 | +environment: |
| 143 | + JOOMLA_CLI_COMMANDS: "cache:clean;extension:list --type=component" |
| 144 | +``` |
| 145 | +
|
| 146 | +What happens: |
| 147 | +
|
| 148 | +* Commands run **as `www-data`** |
| 149 | +* Executed only after Joomla and JCB are ready |
| 150 | +* Failures stop the container (safe by default) |
| 151 | + |
| 152 | +### SMTP Configuration (Optional) |
| 153 | + |
| 154 | +- `JOOMLA_SMTP_HOST` - Format: `hostname` or `hostname:port` |
| 155 | + |
| 156 | +⚠️ **IPv4 only** - IPv6 addresses (e.g., `[::1]:587`) are not supported. |
| 157 | + |
| 158 | +### Execution Guarantees |
| 159 | + |
| 160 | +✓ Fails fast on misconfiguration |
| 161 | +✓ No silent fallbacks |
| 162 | +✓ Deterministic startup behavior |
| 163 | +✓ Safe for repeated container restarts |
| 164 | +✓ Compatible with Apache and PHP-FPM variants |
| 165 | + |
