git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/Programming-is-Easy/PHPainfree.git \
&& cd PHPainfree && rm -rf .git && cp development.env .env
Grab the current source code from Github, delete the .git/ folder,
and copy the development.env file into .env.
The .env file will contain sensitive passwords and other essential private items (API keys, etc)
and should never be checked into version control. A minimalistic version is included
with the PHPainfree source code to allow you to connect to the Docker database configured in the
local development environment.
docker compose up
PHPainfree V2 comes with a Docker setup for speedy development. By default, the docker-compose.yml
configuration will start up three containers:
phpainfree_dev - Apache+PHP container running your application.phpainfree_db - MySQL container with a persistent storage volume.phpainfree_phpmyadmin - PHPMyAdmin web application connected to phpainfree_db.It's really as easy as that! You should have a webserver running the source code in this folder located at http://localhost:8888/ and you should see a complete clone of this website.
From here you can use this website as a starting point for simple web development projects, or you can wipe out almost everything and start your new project from scratch. PHPainfree has never been an "opinionated" framework, and really just provides some lightweight routing automation and some tools for persistent database connections.
