README

This is the application starter project that sets up your environment using composer.

Since we are in alpha on this, the installation directions below are slightly different than they will be on release. The directions below will help you install the v4 alpha version.

REQUIREMENTS

You must have a web server, like apache or nginx, installed and working on your computer.

You must have PHP version 7.0 or greater installed and working.

You must have some kind of SQL database. MySQL, PostreSQL, and many others are supported.

We highly recommend you also install Composer. Composer helps you manage version changes in all your different PHP packages, and we rely on that to provide installation and update services for QCubed-4.

INSTALLATION

Install via Composer

If you do not have Composer, you may install it by following the instructions at getcomposer.org.

Once installed, you can install this app-starter project by executing the following at the command line:

php composer.phar create-project --stability=dev qcubed-4/app-starter your_dir_name

Substitute whatever directory name you would like for "your_dir_name" above.

Note that if you have taken the step to rename "composer.phar" to "composer" and you put it in your path, you can instead just enter:

composer create-project --stability=dev qcubed-4/app-starter your_dir_name

NOTE: If you get an error saying

  [InvalidArgumentException]                                        
  Could not find package qcubed-4/app-starter with stability stable.

then please add the stability requirement in the command argument. The new command would look like:

composer create-project --stability=dev qcubed-4/app-starter your_dir_name

Assuming you installed into the document root of your local web server, enter the following to begin the configuration process.

http://localhost/your_dir_name/

If you would like to eventually place the project somewhere else in your webserver tree, even at the root level, it is easy to do by modifying the SUBDIRECTORY configuration file setting and moving the contents of the directory to the new location.
