I was asked to install magento on a host and decided to run it via docker. The existing magento containers didn't suit my needs 100% so i made one. This image is a CentOS 7 based container which contains slightly more secure versions of Apache 2.4.6, openssl and PHP 5.6 w/ suhosin patch. Magento comes pre-installed but requires a seperate database in order to install correctly.
The dockerfile is based on the actual installation guide/requirements on the magento website implemented on the back of a hardened apache container running php 5.6. It's also partially based on Alex Chengs' Magento 1.9.x image.

There's two ways to get up and running, the easy way and the hard way.
Start mysql (and redis if your using it) first
docker run -d --name percona-server -p 3306:3306 -v /data/percona/mysql:/var/lib/mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=password -e MYSQL_DATABASE=magento -e MYSQL_USER=magento -e MYSQL_PASSWORD=password percona/percona-server:5.6.28
docker run -d --name redis -p 6379:6379 redis:3.2.4
Fire up magento
docker run -d --name magento -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -v /data/magento/etc:/var/www/html/app/etc -v /data/magento/ssl:/etc/httpd/ssl iitgdocker/magento:1.9.2.4
The github repo contains a docker-compose.yml you can use as a base. The docker-compose.yml is compatible with docker-compose 1.5.2+.

By running 'docker-compose up -d' from within the same directory as your docker-compose.yml, you'll be able to bring the container up.
Since this image is built on the back of the iitgdocker/apache image, you should take a look at that for Apache specific configuration.
I've been tossing up whether to use environment variables a la Alex Cheng albeit with the run script making the changes or use a mounted volume. I still haven't decided so in the meantime, i've just been using a mounted volume.
Other than the standard mysql container environment variables which can be better explained on their respective docker pages, there aren't any to note (yet).
| Variable | Default Value (docker-compose) | Description |
|---|---|---|
| MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD | password | Sets the MySQL root password |
| MYSQL_HOST | percona-server | The host serving the MySQL database |
| MYSQL_DATABASE | magento | The name of a MySQL database to create on database container startup |
| MYSQL_USER | magento | The mysql user to create on database container startup |
| MYSQL_PASSWORD | password | The password for the mysql user above |
| APACHE_SERVERNAME | unset | Sets the Apache server name. |
| MOD_SECURITY_ENABLE | 1 | Enables the mod_security web application firewall. 0 to disable. |
The run.sh script requires all of these variables to be set before it will run the install.php script. If you don't have these set, you'll be forced to use the web installation wizard on first run.
