How to run a script after Wordpress container startsup

Hello everyone,

My original goal is to secure a WordPress website using Certbot.

My method is to compose up WordPress container then install Certbot on this container.

So it should be a combination of 2 commands:

  1. WordPress default entry command “apache2-foreground”
  2. Then executing my shell script

Compose file looks like:

version: '3.1'

services:

  wordpress:
    image: wordpress
   # certbot_https_setup.sh includes simple instructions for installing certbot on website. It works for sure.
    command: bash -c "apache2-foreground && bash /path/to/script/certbot_https_setup.sh"
    restart: always
    ports:
      - 8080:80
    environment:
      WORDPRESS_DB_HOST: db
      WORDPRESS_DB_USER: exampleuser
      WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD: examplepass
      WORDPRESS_DB_NAME: exampledb
    volumes:
      - wordpress:/var/www/html

  db:
    image: mysql:5.7
    restart: always
    environment:
      MYSQL_DATABASE: exampledb
      MYSQL_USER: exampleuser
      MYSQL_PASSWORD: examplepass
      MYSQL_RANDOM_ROOT_PASSWORD: '1'
    volumes:
      - db:/var/lib/mysql

volumes:
  wordpress:
  db:

What happens is that apache start but my script does not get executed…

I have tried many other variation trying to pass run apache2-foreground and my script afterward, but none has worked.

Does someone know what am I exactly missing here?

Many thanks in advance!
