I tried running WordPress with docker preview on M1 Mac.

I wanted to test the docker preview as it was open to the public.

The docker preview of M1 Mac came out, so I tested it immediately. I usually develop with WordPress of VPS, but I will try to run it locally. In addition, localbyflywheel is already compatible with Silicon, so If you're just developing WordPress, I think it's easier.

Where you downloaded docker https://www.docker.com/blog/download-and-try-the-tech-preview-of-docker-desktop-for-m1/

reference https://docs.docker.jp/compose/wordpress.html

First of all, docker-compose without thinking

Create docker-compose.yml in a folder called docker-test and copy and paste from the above reference address

docker-compose.yml

version: '3'

services:
   db:
     image: mysql:5.7
     volumes:
       - db_data:/var/lib/mysql
     restart: always
     environment:
       MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: somewordpress
       MYSQL_DATABASE: wordpress
       MYSQL_USER: wordpress
       MYSQL_PASSWORD: wordpress

   wordpress:
     depends_on:
       - db
     image: wordpress:latest
     ports:
       - "8000:80"
     restart: always
     environment:
       WORDPRESS_DB_HOST: db:3306
       WORDPRESS_DB_USER: wordpress
       WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD: wordpress
volumes:
    db_data:

$ docker-compose up     
Creating network "docker-test_default" with the default driver
Pulling db (mysql:5.7)...
5.7: Pulling from library/mysql
ERROR: no matching manifest for linux/arm64/v8 in the manifest list entries

While pulling mysql, `` `ERROR: no matching manifest for linux/arm64/v8``` appears.

It seems that docker-image also needs arm_64 support

Check mysql of docker hub

It seems that it doesn't work because it is only x86-64 and there is no arm64.

Change from mysql to mariadb

Check mariadb.

Likely to go. Partially changed docker-compose.yml

docker-compose.yml

version: '3'

services:
   db:
     image: mariadb
     volumes:
       - db_data:/var/lib/mysql
     restart: always
     environment:
       MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: somewordpress
       MYSQL_DATABASE: wordpress
       MYSQL_USER: wordpress
       MYSQL_PASSWORD: wordpress

   wordpress:
     depends_on:
       - db
     image: wordpress:latest
     ports:
       - "8000:80"
     restart: always
     environment:
       WORDPRESS_DB_HOST: db:3306
       WORDPRESS_DB_USER: wordpress
       WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD: wordpress
volumes:
    db_data:

Replaced the db: image part from `mysql: 5.7``` to `mariadb```

$ docker-compose up

Since there was no error, open localhost: 8000 in a browser.

moved. There was no problem logging in.

bonus

In Activity Monitor, Docker Desktop seems to be intel and only Docker core is apple. I haven't run it that much yet, but neither CPU usage nor memory usage is that great. It took a while to start up for the first time, but it's comfortable because the browser is explosive.
