VbzCart/docs/install

Prerequisites: Linux, PHP 7, MySQL-workalike, Apache.

This page will eventually need to include a lot more information, but for now the basic setup procedure is:

• Clone the VbzCart Git repository at [git@gitlab.com:woozalia/VbzCart.git into a folder of your choice, which we'll call [vbzcart base].
• Copy the [vbzcart base]/config folder to a location outside of [vbzcart base].
  • We'll call this new location [local config].
  • My standard location for this is /home/vbz/site/config/vbzcart
• Copy the [local config]/examples folder to [local config]/local
• Modify each file to match your local environment, according to instructions in each file.
• Optional: modify files in [local config]/portable as needed.
• Install Ferreteria
• Set up database and tables (instructions to be written)

Woozle's setup

Some specifics of how I usually set things up these days, giving examples from the dev instance I'm setting up as I type this: Definitions:

• <$HOME> is the home folder of the virtual domain's user account
  • e.g. /home/wvbz/
• <$USER> is the system user that Apache will run as
  • e.g. wvbz

Preparation: you'll need to have <$USER>'s account set up with an ssh key that can access GitLab. At least, I think that's the requirement. It might be more GitLab-project-specific.

Commands:

• cd <$HOME>
• su <$USER>
• mkdir site
• cd site
• mkdir git
• cd git
• git clone git@gitlab.com:woozalia/VbzCart.git
