Update PicoCMS #468

Closed ctuxboy closed 5 years ago

ctuxboy commented 5 years ago

Okay, Next step!

I have SSH access to my hosting.

Follow the steps installing Picocms with composer.

Now i have access to PicoCMS with this url: https://my_domain.be/pico-composer/

  1. How can i set Picocms in the root folder? Just copy the files in the webroot?
  2. What is the reason accessing pico in a subdir /pic-composer/?
PhrozenByte commented 5 years ago

  1. Yes, you can safely move/copy all of Pico's file to a different directory (including webroot of course)

  2. This is due to how composer create-project picocms/pico-composer works. Unfortunately we can't really change that. However, I guess the install instructions can be made more precise here. I'll update them accordingly, thank you for your feedback! :+1:

I did not test it but composer create-project picocms/pico-composer . should create the files in the current directory instead of ./pico-composer.

PhrozenByte commented 5 years ago

That's correct @Lomanic. However, since we unfortunately can't assume that Composer is installed globally, we recommend users to download composer.phar first. Unfortunately the guys from Composer didn't decide to treat a directory with just the composer.phar in it as "empty enough", but decided to rather let Composer bail out...

@ctuxboy isn't the first user stumbling over this, thus I think it's better to update the docs accordingly. On occasion I also updated the install instructions for developers :smile: See 8826bf4bfed59cffac5a5f53fdc3f38db668e815 resp. https://github.com/picocms/picocms.github.io/commit/39bb74290b2aa0c07baaedbe55c418654031c6ee

Hi @PhrozenByte & @Lomanic ,

I appreciate you all for this awesome support :-) I'm a newbie with PicoCMS but love it ;) Trying follow the docs, but for a beginner, sometimes, not so easy to understand. Step by step it succeeds to understand.

Okay, now i do so:

  1. install PicoCMS with composer in the generated dir my_domain.be/pico-composer/ (=dev environment)
  2. copy the files from my_domain.be/pico-composer/ to the webroot my_domain.be/ (=production environment)
  3. if there is an update copy agian from the subdir to the webroot

Hope this is a good workflow for developing with PicoCMS.

UPDATE: I read the changes in the Readme.md now it's clearify.

Installed PicoCMS directly in the webroot using composer with success!!!!
