NetID

Administrative tool for validated identities used in DemocracyOS/app

Install

1. Fork and/or clone or even just download this repository.
2. Copy ./app/config/parameters.yml.dist file to ./app/config/parameters.yml.
3. Set your configuration keys for database driver, host, port, name, user and password on ./app/config/parameters.yml. The parameters.yml file is ignored by git (see .gitignore) so that machine-specific settings like database passwords aren't committed. By creating the parameters.yml.dist file, new developers can quickly clone the project, copy this file to parameters.yml, customize it, and start developing.
4. On the project root directory, run php app/console doctrine:database:create command to create the database and php app/console doctrine:schema:update --force to create the Net ID database schema.

Note on #3: Either replace parameters variables on ./app/config/parameters.yml or set them as environment variables as shown below.

Settings

Config variables

Symfony will grab any environment variable prefixed with SYMFONY__ and set it as a parameter in the service container. Double underscores are replaced with a period, as a period is not a valid character in an environment variable name. e.g.: a parameter with value %database.driver% should have a config variable named SYMFONY__DATABASE__DRIVER

Production Settings

Or set the BUILDPACK_URL config var on an existing app:

heroku config:set BUILDPACK_URL=https://github.com/CHH/heroku-buildpack-php
