REQUIREMENTS

The minimum requirement by this project template that your Web server supports PHP 5.4.0.

INSTALLATION

Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure you have installed composer and Node.js. If you are on Debian or Ubuntu you might also want to install the libnotify-bin package, which is used by Gulp to inform you about its status.

Gulp

install gulp globally if you haven't done so before

npm install -g gulp-cli

Browsersync

install browsersync globally if you haven't done so before

npm install -g browser-sync

Install via Composer

If you do not have Composer, you may install it by following the instructions at getcomposer.org.

You can then install this project template using the following command:

php composer.phar global require "fxp/composer-asset-plugin:~1.1.1"
php composer.phar create-project --prefer-dist --stability=dev jacmoe/yii2-app-basic-gulp-sass basic

Now you should be able to access the application through the following URL, assuming basic is the directory directly under the Web root.

http://localhost/basic/web/

CONFIGURATION

Database

Edit the file config/db.php with real data, for example:

return [
    'class' => 'yii\db\Connection',
    'dsn' => 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=yii2basic',
    'username' => 'root',
    'password' => '1234',
    'charset' => 'utf8',
];
