This is a great article. Are you planning on expanding this article and build more with Redis, and setup Redis Queues and Laravel Horizon?

How do you rebuild the image with updated code without affecting currently deployed data and do migrations?

I've just seen FrankenPHP that works in Beta with Octane. Maybe you want to look into that and setting up Laravel 11 which is around the corner, with FrankenPHP and Octane and docker as a single image that can be setup with multiple containers including redis and mysql for a full setup experience.
It would be great to see how updates and migrations are being pushed when you roll out an update to the docker images.

Hi!
The command you are entering seems wrong.
The docker build requires an address to build. So make sure to include a . (dot) at the end to build the current directory:

docker build -t image_name .

Let me know if this didn't solve your problem.
