Development

Please also read the CONTRIBUTING.md.

Dev requirements

  • Node >= 14 (Development/Building only)
    • Including npm
  • Yarn (Development/Building only)
  • PHP Composer (Development/Building only)

Local build

The following instructions explain how to get, build and run the latest Engelsystem version directly from the git master branch (may be unstable!).

  • Clone the master branch: git clone https://github.com/engelsystem/engelsystem.git
  • Install Composer and Yarn (which requires Node.js)
  • Install project dependencies:
    composer install
    yarn
    
    On production systems it is recommended to use
    composer install --no-dev
    composer dump-autoload --optimize
    
    to install the Engelsystem
  • Build the frontend assets
yarn build
  • Optionally (for better performance)
  • Generate translation files
    find resources/lang/ -type f -name '*.po' -exec sh -c 'file="{}"; msgfmt "${file%.*}.po" -o "${file%.*}.mo"' \;
    

Testing

To run the unit tests use

vendor/bin/phpunit --testsuite Unit

If a database is configured and the Engelsystem is allowed to mess around with some files, you can run feature tests. The tests can potentially delete some database entries, so they should never be run on a production system!

vendor/bin/phpunit --testsuite Feature
# or for unit- and feature tests:
vendor/bin/phpunit

To run code coverage reports its highly recommended to use pcov or at least phpdbg -qrr(which has problems with switch case statements) as using Xdebug slows down execution.

php -d pcov.enabled=1 vendor/bin/phpunit --testsuite Unit --coverage-text

Translation

We use gettext. You may use POEdit to extract new texts from the sourcecode. Please config POEdit to extract also the twig template files using the following settings: https://gist.github.com/jlambe/a868d9b63d70902a12254ce47069d0e6

Code style

Please ensure that your pull requests follow the PSR-12 coding style guide. You can check that by running

composer run phpcs

You may auto fix reported issues by running

composer run phpcbf

CI & Build Pipeline

The Engelsystem can be tested and automatically deployed to a testing/staging/production environment. This functionality requires a GitLab server with a working docker runner.

To use the deployment features the following secret variables need to be defined (if undefined the step will be skipped):

SSH_PRIVATE_KEY         # The ssh private key
STAGING_REMOTE          # The staging server, e.g. user@remote.host
STAGING_REMOTE_PATH     # The path on the remote server, e.g. /var/www/engelsystem
PRODUCTION_REMOTE       # Same as STAGING_REMOTE but for the production environment
PRODUCTION_REMOTE_PATH  # Same as STAGING_REMOTE_PATH but for the production environment

Docker

This repo ships a docker setup for a quick development start.

If you use another uid/gid than 1000 on your machine you have to adjust it in docker/dev/.env.

Run this once

cd docker/dev
docker-compose up

Run these commands once initially and then as required after changes

# Install composer dependencies
docker exec -it engelsystem_dev_es_workspace_1 composer i

# Install node packages
docker exec -it engelsystem_dev_es_workspace_1 yarn install

# Run a front-end build
docker exec -it engelsystem_dev_es_workspace_1 yarn build

# Update the translation files
docker exec -it engelsystem_dev_es_workspace_1 find /var/www/resources/lang -type f -name '*.po' -exec sh -c 'file="{}"; msgfmt "${file%.*}.po" -o "${file%.*}.mo"' \;

# Run the migrations
docker exec -it engelsystem_dev_es_workspace_1 bin/migrate

While developing you may use the watch mode to rebuild the system on changes

# Run a front-end build
docker exec -it engelsystem_dev_es_workspace_1 yarn build:watch

Hint for using Xdebug with PhpStorm

For some reason PhpStorm is unable to detect the server name. But without a server name it's impossible to set up path mappings. Because of that the docker setup sets the server name engelsystem. To get Xdebug working you have to create a server with the name engelsystem manually.
