Symfony Standard Edition + Draggy
Draggy is a code development tool and template engine that enables the user to create and maintain a functional
Skeleton of an application., (*1)
On this bundle you can download the current Symfony2 Standard Edition with Draggy bundled onto it. It is the same as
if you downloaded the Symfony Standard Edition and then followed
the Draggy installation steps found as described here., (*2)
If you want to start with a sample working demo, please follow the steps on the Draggy demo., (*3)
Installation (if you know what you are doing)
Install composer (You can find how to install Composer here: Composer), (*4)
cd
curl -s https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
sudo composer create-project jd/symfony-standard-draggy /path/to/webroot/ master
Installation (for dummies)
--------------------------
Make sure you have all the necessary dependencies installed:
sudo apt-get install git apache2 php5 php5-sqlite php-apc php5-intl mysql-server php5-mysql phpmyadmin php-apc php5-intl curl acl
Install composer (You can find how to install Composer here: [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md))
cd
curl -s https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
sudo composer create-project jd/symfony-standard-draggy /var/www/draggy/ master
If it is the first Symfony project you install on the machine, is going to take a few minutes.
It will eventually ask you to configure the parameters. Just accept the default values, but make sure that
the MySQL password database_password is correct., (*5)
Next you have to give www-data some permissions on some folders for Symfony to work and for the model to be saved:, (*6)
cd /var/www/draggy/
sudo setfacl -R -m u:www-data:rwx -m u:`whoami`:rwx app/cache app/logs doc doc/history
sudo setfacl -dR -m u:www-data:rwx -m u:`whoami`:rwx app/cache app/logs doc doc/history
Next, create the database for the project:, (*7)
cd /var/www/draggy/
php app/console doctrine:database:create
Create the virtual host on Apache called draggy.local, (*8)
echo date.timezone = Europe/London | sudo tee -a /etc/php5/cli/php.ini
echo date.timezone = Europe/London | sudo tee -a /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
echo short_open_tag = Off | sudo tee -a /etc/php5/cli/php.ini
echo short_open_tag = Off | sudo tee -a /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
echo 127.0.0.1 draggy.local | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts
sudo tee /etc/apache2/sites-available/draggy << EOF
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "/var/www/draggy/web"
DirectoryIndex app.php
ServerName draggy.local
<Directory "/var/www/draggy/web">
AllowOverride All
Allow from All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
EOF
sudo a2ensite draggy
sudo service apache2 reload
sudo a2enmod rewrite
sudo service apache2 reload
That's it! To use it just browse to the path you created http://draggy.local/app_dev.php/_draggy, (*9)
Psst! Remember to create the Bundles before generating the source code:, (*10)
cd /var/www/draggy/
php app/console generate:bundle --format yml
And that if you update the schema, you will need to ask Doctrine to create or update it:, (*11)
php app/console doctrine:schema:update --force
Happy Draggy-ing!, (*12)
