"Bridge" between DDEV & setting up projects in coolify? (yaml configs?)

[mandrasch]

Hey everyone,

I use DDEV for local development of PHP projects.

In each project there is already a .ddev/config.yaml file which defines the PHP version as well as database type and version:

name: ddev-craftcms-vite
type: craftcms
docroot: web
php_version: "8.1"
webserver_type: nginx-fpm
database:
    type: mysql
    version: "8.0"

When I set up a new project / resource in coolify via GitHub, it would be awesome if these values could somehow be used to configure the new resources in coolify? 🪄 🧙‍♀️

I already saw coolify templates, but they work like 1-click fresh installs - not for adding existing git repository projects if I understood it correctly.

So if anyone has an idea on how to achieve a bridge between DDEV and coolify - please let me know! 🤗

My dream is a workflow like Vercel, but for PHP projects:

1. Select GitHub repository in coolify
2. Config yaml file in repository is automagically parsed 🪄 🧙‍♀️
3. Project is ready with database and correct .env file values

Guess platform.sh works a bit that way with yaml config files (https://docs.platform.sh/add-services.html), but haven't used it yet. Would be awesome to store the coolify project config in git as well to make deployments easier?

(I did various experiments with deploying PHP / CraftCMS projects in the past, e.g. with ploi.io https://dev.to/mandrasch/install-craftcms-via-ploiio-on-hetzner-cloud-including-ddev-57f8 - currently working on a tutorial for coolify 🚀 )

Update: There is a new tutorial with Coolify and Docker Compose ✨ https://samuelreichor.at/blogs/craft-coolify

Thx in advance & cheers,
Matthias

Hey @mandrasch Any news on this?

[mandrasch]

Hey @notflip - would be cool, but no.

But check out https://dev.to/mandrasch/simple-coolify-example-with-docker-compose-github-deployments-53m

In the end of the article there is a link to full Craft CMS example

We could write a "DDEV config.yaml to Docker Compose translator/converter" for simple things like php version, etc.

Thanks @mandrasch I will, also this article (don't know if it's recent), seems interesting: https://samuelreichor.at/blogs/craft-coolify

@notflip yeah, it's the one I linked to in my article 👍 great work by @samuelreichor 👏
