Roadiz is a modern CMS based on a polymorphic node system which can handle many types of services and contents. Its back-office has been developed with a high sense of design and user experience. Roadiz theming system is built to live independently of back-office allowing easy switching and multiple themes for one content basis. For example, it allows you to create one theme for your desktop website and another one for your mobile, using the same node hierarchy. Roadiz is released under MIT license, so you can reuse and distribute its code for personal and commercial projects.

This is the production-ready edition for Roadiz. It is meant to set up your Apache/Nginx server root
to the web/
folder, keeping your app sources and themes secure.
# Create a new Roadiz project on develop branch
composer create-project roadiz/standard-edition;
# Navigate into your project dir
cd standard-edition;
# Create a new theme for your project
bin/roadiz themes:generate --symlink --relative FooBar;
# Go to your theme
cd themes/FooBarTheme;
# Build base theme assets
yarn; # or npm install
yarn build; # or npm run build
Composer will automatically create a new project based on Roadiz and download every dependency.
Composer script will copy a default configuration file and your entry-points in web/
folder automatically
and a .env
file in your project root to set up your Docker development environment.
composer update -o --no-dev
# Re-install your theme in public folder using relative symlinks (MacOS + Unix)
# remove --relative flag on Windows to generate absolute symlinks
bin/roadiz themes:assets:install --symlink --relative FooBar;
Docker on Linux will provide awesome performances, and a production-like environment without bloating your development machine:
# Copy sample environment variables
# and adjust them against your needs.
nano .env;
# Build PHP image
docker-compose build;
# Create and start containers
docker-compose up -d;
# Adapt Makefile with your theme name and NPM/Yarn
# This will be useful to generate assets and clear cache
# in one command
nano Makefile;
cd themes/FooBarTheme;
# Install NPM dependencies for your front-end dev environment.
yarn; # npm install;
# Then build assets
yarn build; # npm run build
Solr container declares its volume in .data/solr
in your project folder. After first launch this
folder may be created with root
owner causing Solr not to be able to populate it. Just run:
sudo chown -R $USER_UID:$USER_UID .data
(replacing $USER_UID
with your local user id).
# Edit your Makefile "DEV_DOMAIN" variable to use a dedicated port
# to your project and your theme name.
nano Makefile;
# Launch PHP server
make dev-server;
You can directly use bin/roadiz
command through docker-compose exec
:
# Install Rozier back-office assets
docker-compose exec -u www-data app bin/roadiz themes:assets:install Rozier
# Install your theme assets as relative symlinks
docker-compose exec -u www-data app bin/roadiz themes:assets:install --symlink --relative FooBar
Pay attention that PHP is running with www-data user. You must update your .env
file to
reflect your local user UID during image build.
# Type id command in your favorite terminal app
id
# It should output something like
# uid=1000(toto)
So use the same uid in your .env
file before starting and building your docker image.
USER_UID=1000
Simply call composer update
to upgrade Roadiz.
You’ll need to execute regular operations if you need to migrate your database.
You can follow the already well-documented article on Performance tuning for Symfony apps.
composer dump-autoload --optimize --no-dev --classmap-authoritative
; php.ini
opcache.max_accelerated_files = 20000
realpath_cache_size=4096K
realpath_cache_ttl=600
You can create a standalone Docker image with your Roadiz project thanks to our roadiz/php74-nginx-alpine
base
image, a continuous integration tool such as Gitlab CI and a private Docker registry.
All your theme assets will be compiled in a controlled environment, and your production website
will have a minimal downtime at each update.
Make sure you don’t ignore package.lock
or yarn.lock
in your themes not to get dependency errors when your
CI system will compile your theme assets. You may do the same for your project composer.lock
to make sure
you’ll use the same dependencies' version in dev as well as in your CI jobs.
Standard Edition provides a basic configuration set with a Dockerfile
:
- Customize
.gitlab-ci.yml
file to reflect your Gitlab instance configuration and your theme path and your project name. - Add your theme in Composer
pre-docker
scripts to be able to install your theme assets intoweb/
during Docker build:
php bin/roadiz themes:assets:install MyTheme
- Add your theme in
.dockerignore
file to include your assets during build, update the following lines to force ignored files into your Docker image:
!themes/BaseTheme/static
!themes/BaseTheme/Resources/views/base.html.twig
!themes/BaseTheme/Resources/views/partials/*
- Enable Registry and Continuous integration on your repository settings.
- Push your code on your Gitlab instance. An image build should be triggered after a new tag has been pushed and your test and build jobs succeeded.
