Getting started with Yii2 development
|
|
|
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The best way to have a locally runnable webapp that uses codebase cloned from main repository is to use `yii2-dev`
|
|
|
|
|
Composer package. Here's how to do it:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. `git clone git@github.com:yiisoft/yii2-app-basic.git`.
|
|
|
|
|
2. Remove `.git` directory from cloned directory.
|
|
|
|
|
3. Change `composer.json`. Instead of all stable requirements add just one `"yiisoft/yii2-dev": "*"`.
|
|
|
|
|
4. Execute `composer install`.
|
|
|
|
|
5. Now you have working playground that uses latest code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that requirements of extensions that come with `yii2-dev` are not loaded automatically.
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to use an extension, check if there are dependencies suggested for it and add them
|
|
|
|
|
to your `composer.json`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you're core developer there's no extra step needed. You can change framework code under
|
|
|
|
|
`vendor/yiisoft/yii2-dev` and push it to main repository.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you're not core developer or want to use your own fork for pull requests:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Fork `https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2` and get your own repository address such as
|
|
|
|
|
`git://github.com/username/yii2.git`.
|
|
|
|
|
2. Edit `vendor/yiisoft/yii2-dev/.git/config`. Change remote `origin` url to your own:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
[remote "origin"]
|
|
|
|
|
url = git://github.com/username/yii2.git
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
