The Humble Developer

The humble developer

A journal of things learnt along the way.

Installation

Because I always forget.

Webserver

First, install php5 and apache2 via sudo apt-get install php5. Then enable Apache's rewrite module via sudo a2enmod rewrite.

Create a virtual host configuration file 001-humbledev.conf in Apache, typically at /etc/apache2/sites-available/, with the following content

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName humbledev

        ServerAdmin [e-mail]
        DocumentRoot /home/christoph/projects/humbledev

        <Directory /home/christoph/projects/humbledev/>
        	Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
	        AllowOverride All
        	Require all granted
        </Directory>

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

The setting AllowOverride All allows the .htaccess settings to override the global settings.

Add the configuration to Apache

sudo a2ensite 001-humbledev.conf

and reload the service

sudo service apache2 reload

Add the server name to your hosts file

sudo vim /etc/hosts

like this

127.0.0.1	localhost humbledev

License

create a new file keys.php in the folder site/config, with the following content

<?php
define( 'KIRBY_LICENSE', 'YOUR_LICENSE_KEY' );
?>

and add your own license key. The file is in .gitignore so it is not visible in Github.
