What is Monica?

Monica is a great open source personal relationship management system to organize the interactions with your loved ones.

How to use this image

There are two versions of the image you may choose from.

The apache tag contains a full Monica installation with an apache webserver. This points to the default latest tag too.

The fpm tag contains a fastCGI-Process that serves the web pages. This image should be combined with a webserver used as a proxy, like apache or nginx.

Using the apache image

This image contains a webserver that exposes port 80. Run the container with:

docker run --name some-monica -d -p 8080:80 monica

Using the fpm image

This image serves a fastCGI server that exposes port 9000. You may need an additional web server that can proxy requests to the fpm port 9000 of the container. Run this container with:

docker run --name some-monica -d -p 9000:9000 monica:fpm

Using an external database

You'll need to setup an external database. Monica currently support MySQL/MariaDB database. You can also link a database container, e. g. --link my-mysql:db, and then use db as the database host on setup. More info is in the Docker Compose section.

Persistent data storage

To have a persistent storage for your datas, you may want to create volumes for your db, and for monica you will have to save the /var/www/html/storage directory.

Run a container with this named volume:

docker run -d \
        -v monica_data:/var/www/html/storage \
        monica

Run commands inside the container

Like every Laravel application, the php artisan command is very usefull for Monica. To run a command inside the container, run

docker exec CONTAINER_ID php artisan COMMAND

Or for Docker Compose:

docker compose exec monica php artisan COMMAND

where monica is the name of the service in your compose.yaml file.

Configuration using environment variables

The Monica image will use environment variables to setup the application. See Monica documentation for common used variables you should setup.

Running the image with Docker Compose

See some examples of Docker Compose possibilities in the example section.

Apache version

This version will use the apache image and add a mysql container. The volumes are set to keep your data persistent. This setup provides no ssl encryption and is intended to run behind a proxy.

Make sure to pass in values for APP_KEY variable before you run this setup.

1. Create a compose.yaml file…
