Run nginx and php into containers with proper user for development

I have installed and configured nginx + php-fpm on their own containers. All working fine except one thing: they're running with user www-data (id: 82) and same group. So, host files, mounted to container has wrong user/group (of my primary user with 1000:1000).

How to run these containers with ability to operate with files as user 1000:1000?

User's ID can be changed in the image to map the host user's ID for that purpose.

Example for php-fpm-alpine:

RUN apk add shadow && usermod -u 1000 www-data && groupmod -g 1000 www-data

As nginx runs as root (container's root and host's root) there is no need to manipulate with UIDs

for this you have to define specific user and group in container by docker-file.

Dockerfile

FROM php:7.1.6-fpm
RUN useradd -r -m -s /usr/sbin/nologin -g username -u 1000 username

ADD start-up /usr/local/bin/start-up
RUN chmod 0777 /usr/local/bin/start-up -R
ENTRYPOINT /usr/local/bin/start-up

then you have to change start-up script for php

sed -i s/'user = www-data'/'user = username'/g /usr/local/etc/php-fpm.d/www.conf
sed -i s/'group = www-data'/'group = username'/g /usr/local/etc/php-fpm.d/www.conf

I use this in my project and its working.
