Update: You can also easily checkout this repo and just lando start to spin it up: https://github.com/saschaeggi/mautic-lando-starterkit

Requirements

  • lando
  • composer

Install Mautic via composer

composer create-project mautic/core YOURPROJECTNAME ^3 --no-dev

Replace YOURPROJECTNAME with the name of the projects folder.

Lando

Config

Create .lando.yml with the following content:

name: mautic
recipe: lamp
config:
webroot: .
php: '7.3'
database: mysql:5.7
tooling:
mt:
service: appserver
description: Run Mautic commands
cmd: bin/console
proxy:
mailhog:
- mail.mautic.lndo.site
services:
appserver:
type: php
build_as_root:
- docker-php-ext-install sockets
xdebug: true
config:
php: .lando/php/php.ini
database:
type: mysql:5.7
portforward: true
creds:
user: mautic
password: mautic
database: mautic
mailhog:
type: mailhog
portforward: true

Build containers

lando start

This will create the needed docker containers (can take a while).

Once the containers are up and running we can access
https://mautic.lndo.site/

Let’s setup Mautic

Let’s open https://mautic.lndo.site/
You should see now the following screen:

Step 1

Set Database settings to use the following:

Database: mautic,
Password: mautic,
Username: mautic
Host: database,
Port: 3306

Step 2

Setup your admin user:

Username: admin
Password: SETYOURPASSWORD
Name: Your name
Last name: Your last name

Step 3

We set to use the mailserver to be the mailhog docker container:

Server: mailhog,
Port: 1025

And we can access Mailhog via
http://mail.mautic.lndo.site/

Login

You can now login to your freshly installed Mautic setup with the credentials from the previous step.
