How to setup Docker + PhpStorm + xdebug on Ubuntu 16.04

I found out solution how to run xdebug.

1) First of we need create a new static route that will based on your network device. For create new static route: run in terminal ifconfig

and found out the exists network device. In my situation name of device will be as

wlp4s0

enter image description here

2) Go ahead. Let's begin create the static route. In terminal run command like this:

> sudo ip addr add 10.254.254.254/24 brd + dev wlp4s0 label wlp4s0:1

3) Now if you run again ifconfig you'll see new static route: enter image description here

4) Update

xdebug.ini

file add:

xdebug.remote_host=10.254.254.254

5) Update docker.compose.yml file: in php section add:

environment:
    PHP_IDE_CONFIG: "serverName=project-docker"
    PHP_XDEBUG_ENABLED: 1
    XDEBUG_CONFIG: remote_host=10.254.254.254

6) The last thing is update phpstorm settings.

Server settings: phpstorm settings Remote debug config: phpstorm settings 7) And profit xdebug is working: xdebug is working


Docker on Linux allows Xdebug to automatically connect back to the host system so you can just set xdebug.remote_connect_back=1 and leave out the xdebug.remote_host in your xdebug.ini.
