Hi, I am new to Docker and right now I building my first app using PHP+APACHE+MYSQL.

I want to add node\_modules to the project and kind of lost my way with the process.

Right now I have this Dockerfile -

FROM php:7-apache  
RUN apt-get update -y && apt-get install -y libpng-dev && apt-get install -y libcurl4-openssl-dev  
RUN docker-php-ext-install pdo pdo\_mysql gd curl  
RUN a2enmod rewrite  
RUN service apache2 restart

And this docker-compose.yml

version: ‘2’

services:  
webserver:  
build: ./docker/webserver  
image: myimage  
ports:  
- “80:80”  
- "443:443"  
volumes:  
- /Users/username/Sites:/var/www/html  
links:  
- db

db:  
image: mysql:5.7  
ports:  
- "3306:3306"  
volumes:  
- ./db:/var/lib/mysql  
environment:  
- MYSQL\_ROOT\_PASSWORD=password  
- MYSQL\_DATABASE=dbname

My question is, what and where do I need to configure to make everything work together?  
Thank you!

looks already quite okay.  
did you configure your Apache/PHP that the mysql database is reachable under name “db”?
