Slim Framework Skeleton Application
Use this skeleton application to quickly setup and start working on a new Slim Framework application. This application uses the latest Slim and Slim-Views repositories. It also uses Sensio Labs' Twig template library., (*1)
This skeleton application was built for Composer. This makes setting up a new Slim Framework application quick and easy., (*2)
Install Composer
If you have not installed Composer, do that now. I prefer to install Composer globally in /usr/local/bin
, but you may also install Composer locally in your current working directory. For this tutorial, I assume you have installed Composer locally., (*3)
http://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md#installation, (*4)
Install the Application
After you install Composer, run this command from the directory in which you want to install your new Slim Framework application., (*5)
php composer.phar create-project ryu22e/slim-skeleton-phpunit [my-app-name]
Replace [my-app-name]
with the desired directory name for your new application. You'll want to:
* Point your virtual host document root to your new application's public/
directory.
* Ensure logs/
and templates/cache
are web writeable., (*6)
That's it! Now go build something cool., (*7)
How to test
After install the application, run this command from the directory., (*8)
make test
Test codes are in tests/
., (*9)
