Please provide install instructions for dumb

[khmlvsky]

Thank you so much for your work!
I would like use this application, but I ca not not start in locally in docker

Could you please provide detailed step by step guide?

Thanks in advance,
Andrii

me too .. I also have a very basic webserver with PHP. I couldn't do the first step... "composer.phar" is missing.

[narenknn]

did "composer install" and I think I made progress.. doing other steps.. may be you can try and update me too...

[narenknn]

I was able to successfully deploy the application .. Just follow the instructions except for the first one. It also created a random school, but that's OK. Webserver should be pointing to the 'public' directory.

@Khmelovsky @narenknn The instructions are already very simple.

You can install this software in two ways:

 1. Using a container like Docker
 2. Not using a container

For Docker installation you need to have Docker and Docker Compose installed. Then follow the instructions in readme.md. Our Docker setup uses Nginx, Mysql and PHP, Composer. So you don't have to install them separately.

For installation without a container is simple too. You need to just have setup servers of your choice. XAMPP is a good start for this. You need to install Composer also before progressing to further instructions given in readme.md.

Hope this helps.

Hi @changeweb,
Thank you for your response but I'm still little confused.
I'm using Docker approach and after longing to bash I cannot execute other command and install composer in a container.
I guess Docker file dependencies is not installing.

Could you please give me a advice where I am wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Andrii.

@Khmelovsky could you share the steps and commands you tried with screenshots?

And you can try without container approach if Docker approach don't work for you.

Turns out the instructions for installing without a container might be flawed.

If you attempt to composer install without copying the .env from .env.example, composer will assume you're in a production environment, and Dusk setup will fail.

Following a request from Fernando Velasquez, I made a video guide, embedded in this article, showing how to get setup.

@mykeels Thank you so much, my problem solved! Very useful tutorial for everyone!

[changeweb]

@mykeels awesome work!!

Will you publish the article? Is it ok if I add this guide url in readme? Or you may create a pull request.

Thanks for spending your precious time and knowledge.

[mykeels]

Thanks, guys.

I think it's better to make a PR, and maybe embed the video in the README, than publish the article, so all instructions are in the repo, and under version control. @changeweb

[changeweb]

@mykeels then please change the order of composer install and cp .env.example .env in readme in your PR.

I am able to see more than 3-4 issues created because of problems running on production.
Can someone please make such video for ubuntu (On Production). It will help a lot.
