PHP Images

Five different images for each PHP Version

  • base - Minimal Image, base for the other
  • cli - PHP with Command Line installed (composer, phpunit, etc)
  • fpm - PHP with FPM installed
  • fpm-apache - PHP and Apache using FPM
  • fpm-nginx - PHP and Nginx using FPM

Image Tag Convention

Since January 2021 de tag convention is:

byjg/php:<PHP_VERSION>-<TYPE>[-YYYY.MM]

Where:

  • PHP_VERSION: It is <MAJOR>.<MINOR>, e.g 8.2
  • TYPE: It is base, cli, fpm, fpn-nginx, fpm-apache
  • YYYY: The Year of the Build
  • MM: The month of the build.

The images without YYYY-MM can be updated to the latest PHP version and new features. The images with YYYY-MM are immutable

e.g.

byjg/php:8.2-fpm
byjg/php:8.2-fpm-2023.01
