Boilerplate to set up a Symfony project with a VM using Homestead.

Symfony 5 project, Homestead v10

Includes basic reset + sanitize less files

Prerequisites

composer (to install Homestead locally)

virtualbox

vagrant >= 1.9.5

vagrant plugin install vagrant-bindfs

Install

The first step is to install homestead so that the project can build the virtual machine properly.

• composer install

Note: this is the first and only time you'll be running composer outside of the VM. 👍

• mv Homestead.yaml.example Homestead.yaml

• open Homestead.yaml

  • replace {{name_of_your_projet}} by the name of your project
  • replace {{name_of_your_database}} by the name of your database

• mv .env.test .env

• vagrant up

• vagrant ssh

• cd /{{name_of_your_project}}

• composer install

• access {{name_of_your_project}}.test
