Prevent the Docker container from taking 10 seconds to stop
akrabat.com
Rob Allen details how the exec form of a Docker CMD is the better form to use. The reason the string form invokes bash first, and thus bash gets PID 1, which is what Docker will terminate when the container is terminated. The problem is that bash doesn't then send a termination signal to the actual process invoked, forcing the Docker host to wait 10 seconds before force killing all processes in the container.

Advent 2023: Makefile
I like to automate common workflows when I can, particularly for web projects.
As an example, I may have different Docker Compose setups for development versus production, and having to remember to add the -f {compose file name} argument can be tedious and error prone.
Being a long-time Linux user, I've used make a lot, and am fairly comfortable with Makefile, so I often turn to it for these tasks.

Advent 2023: Shellcheck
As you may have noted from previous posts in this Advent 2023 series, I find myself using Bash more and more often. This has certainly been a surprise for a career PHP developer, but it is what it is.
With PHP, there are a wealth of QA tools, from unit testing, to enforcing coding standards, to static analysis. What about with Bash? Well, the tools exist, and there's one I literally cannot write Bash without: Shellcheck.
