How to deploy Laravel's parsing on a cloud server-PHP Tutorial-php.cn

This article mainly introduces in detail how to deploy Laravel on the cloud server, which has certain reference value. Interested friends can refer to it

It has been a while since I learned PHP and Laravel, but All the code runs on the local virtual host, so I went to Tencent Cloud to apply for a free cloud host for one month, and wanted to deploy the project to the cloud server.

I have to say that there are a lot of pitfalls here, which makes me, a novice who comes into contact with the server for the first time, confused. After configuring the server, deploying a Laravel project is even more laborious, so I wanted to record the process of deploying the Laravel project.

PS: Linux is really a system that becomes more enjoyable the more you use it. You should install Linux on your desktop computer to type code when you go home.

Environment Introduction

In terms of the choice of operating system, I chose the Linux ubuntu16.04 system and used the LNMP environment, that is, Linux Nginx Mysql PHP environment.

Delete Apache

sudo service apache2 stop
update-rc.d -f apache2 remove
sudo apt-get remove apache2

Copy after login

Use these three commands to delete Apaceh first and then update the package list

sudo apt-get update

Copy after login

1. Install Nginx

sudo apt-get install nginx

Copy after login

After installing Nginx, you need to restart nginx

sudo service nginx start

Copy after login

After execution, enter the public IP assigned to you by the cloud server in the browser, and you can see the welcome to nginx The interface is

2. During the installation of Mysql

sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client

Copy after login

, you will be prompted to set the Mysql password, just like the usual password settings, enter it once and confirm it once. After the password is confirmed, the installation will basically take a while. Try

mysql -u root -p

Copy after login

If the login is successful, Mysql is installed correctly.

3. Install PHP

sudo apt-get install php5-fpm php5-cli php5-mcrypt

Copy after login

Only through php5-fpm, PHP can run normally under Nginx, so install it.

As for php5-mcrypt, some PHP frameworks will depend on this, such as Laravel, so it is also installed.

Off topic, I installed php7 myself during deployment of php5 here. If you want to try it, you can also try it.

4. Configure PHP

sudo vim /etc/php5/fpm/php.ini

Copy after login

Open the PHP configuration file, find the cgi.fix_pathinfo option, remove the comment semicolon; in front of it, and then set its value to 0, as follows

cgi.fix_pathinfo=0

Copy after login

5. Enable php5-mcrypt:

sudo php5enmod mcrypt

Copy after login

6.Restart php5-fpm:

sudo service php5-fpm restart

Copy after login

After setting up the LEMP environment, you must first clarify two important directories

Nginx’s default root folder

/usr/share/nginx/html

The directory where Nginx’s server configuration file is located

/etc/nginx/sites-available/

Just remember the above two directories, they are very commonly used, let’s put them out first

The following is a step-by-step deployment of Laravel on the cloud server

1. Create the root directory of the website

sudo mkdir -p /var/www

Copy after login

2. Configure the nginx server

sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/default

Copy after login

After opening the nginx configuration file, find the server A piece, it probably looks like this

server {
  listen 80 default_server;
  listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on;

  root /usr/share/nginx/html;
  index index.html index.htm;

  server_name localhost;

  location / {
    try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
  }
}

Copy after login

The lines of root, index, server_name and location need to be slightly modified

root modification

root /var/www/laravel/public;

Copy after login

Here is to point the root directory of the nginx server to the public folder of Laravel. We will put the code of the subsequent Laravel project in the /var/www/laravel directory we created before.

index modification

index index.php index.html index.htm;

Copy after login

What needs to be noted here is that index.php is ranked at the top

Modify server_name

server_name server_domain_or_IP;

Copy after login

Modify server_domain_or_IP to you The public IP

location modification

location / {
  try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}

Copy after login

The modification is as follows:

server {
 listen 80 default_server;
 listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on;

 root /var/www/laravel/public;
 index index.php index.html index.htm;

 server_name server_domain_or_IP;

 location / {
   try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
 }
}

Copy after login

Finally we need to configure Nginx to let it execute PHP document. Also in this file, add the following configuration under location:

server {
 listen 80 default_server;
 listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on;

 root /var/www/laravel/public;
 index index.php index.html index.htm;

 server_name server_domain_or_IP;

 location / {
  try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
 }

 location ~ \.php$ {
  try_files $uri /index.php =404;
  fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
  fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
  fastcgi_index index.php;
  fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
  include fastcgi_params;
 }
}

Copy after login

Note that the bottom location ~ \.php$ was added by yourself:

After configuring, restart Nginx to make the above configuration items take effect.

sudo service nginx restart

Copy after login

3. Create a Laravel project

After configuring nginx, how to obtain the Laravel project code? There are several methods:

(1). Direct composer installation

Install directly through composer. You can execute

cd ~
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

Copy after login

on the server. The above command will install composer.

Composer is used globally:

sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

Copy after login

Then execute it directly in the /var/www directory

sudo composer create-project laravel/laravel laravel

Copy after login

Because we created the /var/www directory before, you can directly cd /var /www and then execute the above command. Then wait for the installation to complete.

(2). Upload the code directly

Use the following command to upload

scp -r laravel root@your_IP:

Copy after login

Then move laravel to the /var/www directory on the server

sudo mv laravel/ /var/www

Copy after login

(3). Use Git and Coding platform

I personally prefer to use git to upload code, which can easily update the code and roll back. Once the version When bugs are updated, I can use Git's powerful version management capabilities to fix them. The process is roughly like this:

Local code---->Github---->Cloud server

Since you want to use git, first install git on the cloud server :

sudo apt-get install git

Copy after login

After the installation is complete, you can use git, and then create a private project laravel on Github, which contains all the code required for the Laravel project.

Once the local code is pushed to Coding, then use it directly in the /var/www directory
