Prerequisites

In order to run this run-time system locally you will need a few tools installed:

• Git

• Docker

• Docker-Compose

• GNU Make

  • Windows Installation

Installation

Clone the sf4d Git Repo from https://github.com/papahelmsman/sf4d to a new folder.

1.Cloning a repository

First, clone this repository :

git clone https://github.com/papahelmsman/sf4d.git [path-tu-your-project-folder]
cd [path-tu-your-project-folder]
docker-compose up -d

Don't forget to add sf4d.localhost in your hosts file.

To run Docker, your machine must have a 64-bit operating system running Windows 7 or higher.

I use Docker Toolbox on Windows 7 (64-bit) and my host record is as follows:

192.168.99.100  sf4d.dockerhost

Check if your development environment is ready to go :

sf4d.dockerhost

Your browser should redirect your request to secure connection:

https://sf4d.dockerhost

And you should see your test index page.

Congrats! It works!

Now we can start development.

2.Installing a Symfony application

Next, put your Symfony application into app folder.

Stop your containers:

docker-compose down

Clean th /app folder. Remove public folder from /app.

Create Symfonyy application's template:

composer create-project symfony/website-skeleton ./app

or if you prefer to use symfony binary:

symfony new --full ./app

Edit your doctrine cinfiguration file //app/config/packages/doctrine.yaml.

Add in the beginning:

parameters:
    # Adds a fallback DATABASE_URL if the env var is not set.
    # This allows you to run cache:warmup even if your
    # environment variables are not available yet.
    # You should not need to change this value.
    env(DATABASE_URL): ''
    

And change dbal section:

    dbal:
        # configure these for your database server
        driver: 'pdo_pgsql'
        server_version: '11.2'
        charset: utf8
        default_table_options:
            charset: utf8
            collate: ~

        url: '%env(resolve:DATABASE_URL)%'

        schema_filter: '~^(?!work_projects_tasks_seq)~'

Change the DATABASE parameters in /app/.env.

Comment out the following line:

DATABASE_URL=mysql://db_user:db_password@127.0.0.1:3306/db_name

and add below:

DATABASE_URL="pgsql://db_user:db_password@127.0.0.1:5432/db_name"

Substitute your credentials:

DATABASE_URL=pgsql://symfonist:secret@192.168.99.100:54321/app_db

Then, run docker containers:

docker-compose up -d --build

Use Adminer tool

http://sf4d.dockerhost:2000/

Default database credentials

System: PostgreSQL Server: app-db Username: symfonist Password: secret Database: app_db

You can change these credentials in the .env file and then rebuild containers using coamand:

docker-compose up -d --build
