It works fine at local machine when I run docker compose up -d only if I have already run composer install otherwise throws following error
It is ok for development purpose I have to run composer install once, but for production, I think it is not right way to manually do composer install every time new version is deployed. Doesn't the command RUN composer install at Dockerfile install the required dependencies? I can see progress bar of dependencies being installed but no vendor folder is generated if I ssh into container. Again it works fine if I ssh into instance and manually install dependencies.
I have deployed a nodejs app also successfully using elastic beanstalk. There the dependencies were installed properly using command RUN npm install at Dockerfile. I don't see any difference in the process. Do I have to include vendor folder also in the zip file?. Please suggest correct way to deploy.
