Installation & Usage
####################
Requirements
************
- This project use `docker <https://docker.com>`_ to be run. As a developer, use `docker-compose <https://docs.docker.com/compose/overview/>`_ to bootstrap a dev environment in a glance. You do not need any other dependencies ;
- Make is used to automate scripts.
Installation in development mode
********************************
1. Get the code
===============
Clone or download the chill-app project and `cd` into the main directory.
.. code-block:: bash
git clone https://gitlab.com/Chill-Projet/chill-app.git
cd chill-app
As a developer, the code will stay on your computer and will be executed in docker container. To avoid permission problem, the code should be run with the same uid/gid from your current user. This is why we get your current user id with the command ``id -u`` in each following scripts.
2. Prepare your variables
=========================
Have a look at the variable in ``.env.dist`` and in ``app/config/parameters.yml.dist`` and check if you need to adapt them. If they do not adapt with your need, or if some are missing:
1. copy the file as ``.env``: ``cp .env.dist .env``
2. you may replace some variables inside ``.env``
**Note**: If you intend to use the bundle ``Chill-Doc-Store``, you will need to configure and install an openstack object storage container with temporary url middleware. You will have to configure `secret keys <https://docs.openstack.org/swift/latest/api/temporary_url_middleware.html#secret-keys>`_.
3. Run the bootstrap script
===========================
This script can be run using `make`
.. code-block:: bash
make init
This script will :
1. force docker-compose to, eventually, pull the base images and build the image used by this project ;
2. run an install script to download `composer <https://getcomposer.org>`_ ;
3. install the php dependencies
4. build assets
4. Start the project
====================
.. code-block:: bash
docker-compose up
**On the first run** (and after each upgrade), you must execute *post update commands* and run database migrations. With a container up and running, execute the following commands:
.. code-block:: bash
make migrate
Chill will be available at ``http://localhost:8001.`` Currently, there isn't any user or data. To add fixtures, run
.. code-block:: bash
docker-compose exec --user $(id -u) php bin/console doctrine:fixtures:load --purge-with-truncate
There are several users available:
- ``center a_social``
- ``center b_social``
The password is always ``password``.
Now, read `Operations` below.
Operations
**********
Build assets
============
run those commands:
.. code-block:: bash
make build-assets
How to execute the console ?
============================
.. code-block:: bash
# if a container is running
docker-compose exec --user $(id -u) php bin/console
# if not
docker-compose run --user $(id -u) php bin/console
How to create the database schema (= run migrations) ?
======================================================
.. code-block:: bash
# if a container is running
docker-compose exec --user $(id -u) php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate
# if not
docker-compose run --user $(id -u) php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate
How to read the email sent by the program ?
===========================================
Go at ``http://localhost:8005`` and you should have access to mailcatcher.
In case of you should click on a link in the email, be aware that you should remove the "s" from https.
How to load fixtures ? (development mode only)
==============================================
.. code-block:: bash
# if a container is running
docker-compose exec --user $(id -u) php bin/console doctrine:fixtures:load
# if not
docker-compose run --user $(id -u) php bin/console doctrine:fixtures:load
How to open a terminal in the project
=====================================
.. code-block:: bash
# if a container is running
docker-compose exec --user $(id -u) php /bin/bash
# if not
docker-compose run --user $(id -u) php /bin/bash
How to run composer ?
=====================
.. code-block:: bash
# if a container is running
docker-compose exec --user $(id -u) php ./composer.phar
# if not
docker-compose run --user $(id -u) php ./composer.phar
How to access to PGADMIN ?
==========================
Pgadmin is installed with docker-compose.
You can access it at ``http://localhost:8002``.
Credentials:
- login: admin@chill.social
- password: password
How to run tests ?
==================
Tests reside inside the installed bundles. You must `cd` into that directory, download the required packages, and execute them from this place.
**Note**: some bundle require the fixture to be executed. See the dedicated _how-tos_.
Exemple, for running test inside `main` bundle:
.. code-block:: bash
# mount into the php image
docker-compose run --user $(id -u) php /bin/bash
# cd into main directory
cd vendor/chill-project/main
# download deps
php ../../../composer.phar install
# run tests
/vendor/bin/phpunit
How to run webpack interactively
================================
Executing :code:`bash docker-node.sh` will open a terminal in a node container, with volumes mounted.
Build the documentation API
===========================
A basic configuration of `sami <https://github.com/FriendsOfPhp/Sami>`_ is embedded within the project.
A configuration file for `phpDocumentor <https://www.phpdoc.org>`_ is present.
Error `An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("Asset manifest file "/var/www/app/web/build/manifest.json" does not exist.").` on first run
====================================================================================================================================================================
Run :code:`make build-assets`
Running in production
*********************
Currently, to run this software in production, the *state of the art* is the following :
1. Run the software locally and tweak the configuration to your needs ;
2. Build the image and store them into a private container registry. This can be done using :code:`make build-and-push-image`.
To be sure to target the correct container registry, you have to adapt the values ``IMAGE_NGINX`` and ``IMAGE_PHP`` date in the ``.env`` file.
3. Run the image on your production server, using docker-compose or eventually docker stack. You have to customize the variable set in docker-compose.
See also the :ref:`running-production-tips-and-tricks` below.
.. warning::
In production, you **must** set those variables:
* ``APP_ENV`` to ``prod``
* ``APP_DEBUG`` to ``false``
There are security issues if you keep the same variable than for production.

Tips and tricks
===============
Operation on database (backups, running custom sql, replication) are easier to set when run outside of a container. If you run into a container, take care of the volume where data are stored.
The PHP sessions are stored inside redis. This is useful if you distribute the traffic amongst different php server: they will share same sessions if a request goes into a different instance of the container.
When the PHP servers are shared across multiple instances, take care that some data is stored into redis: the same redis server should be reachable by all instances.
It is worth having an eye on the configuration of logstash container.
Design principles
*****************
Why the DB URL is set in environment, and not in parameters.yml ?
=================================================================
Because, at startup, a script does check the db is up and, if not, wait for a couple of seconds before running ``entrypoint.sh``. For avoiding double configuration, the configuration of the PHP app takes his configuration from environment also (and it will be standard in future releases, with symfony 4.0).
