[Question] Uneccesary Production Files #827

Closed videsignz closed 7 years ago

videsignz commented 8 years ago

Hey Everyone,

Is there any documentation on which folders/files can be removed in production. I know there is quite a bit used for testing and such but I feel those files are not suited or needed on a live server.

Can anyone help with this a bit?

elbenjaz commented 8 years ago

Hi,

I've removed the folders "/_one-click-installation", "/_pictures", "/tests", "application/_installation". Also I followed the instructions in the README.md file (section: What the hell are .travis.yml, .scrutinizer.yml etc.) and I deleted all the files except .htaccess, composer.json

videsignz commented 8 years ago

@elbenjaz Thanks for the reply...I have done the same regarding those files. I was looking a bit deeper like in the vendor folder...Items such as:

PHPUnit Symfany Sebastian PHPSpec Doctrine

videsignz commented 8 years ago

I'n not completely in tune with what those scripts do and what purpose they have in the app. Therefore, I was hoping for answers here.

panique commented 8 years ago

:) Hey, the only files that are needed are:

application/. public/. .htaccess index.php composer.json

The rest is just for tests, auto-installation, images for the repo etc...

@panique Hey Chris,

What about gregwar/captcha, phpmailer, and the composer folder? I assume those are necessary?

videsignz commented 8 years ago

Wow, I am really not up to date on Composer and the proper ways to use it. ughhhhh....

If I am right, the vendor folder is needed as well as whatever dependencies are needed for HUGE to run properly. Such as PHP mailer and Gregwar Captcha.

I'm thinking, for production, I can delete the vendor folder completely, Remove the "require-dev" entries completely from composer.json and then run composer and require only the dependencies needed for php mailer and captcha.

Am I correct in this thinking? Sorry for being such a newbie.

:) You'll definitly need the vendor folder in production too, as it holds all the external libraries you (or your framework or both) need, so there's not really a big difference between dev/test/production (except testing etc), please just have a look on all the awesome tutorials on composer, it's really easy to understand and it will make your development so much easier and faster and cleaner :)
