How to configure Crew

Configure internal repositories location

This is the location where Crew stores its internal git repositories : you will never need to go there.
So it must be writable by your web server user (ex: www-data).
For example, if your repositories clones are to be stored in /my/path

./symfony crew:config set repositories_path /my/path

Create users

./symfony crew:create-user login password DisplayedNickname email@example.com

Setup SSH communication

Apache user of Crew's server must be able to communicate with remote server.

If your project is private, generate SSH key for apache user :

sudo -u www-data ssh-keygen -t rsa

And setup read-only access on your remote with its public key /var/www/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.

Don't forget to update your known_hosts :

sudo -u www-data ssh -T git@github.com (GitHub example)

Add project

Before adding your first project :

• If you're a hacker, configure your git test repository.
• On Mac OS X, set $PATH environment variable for apache2.

Login with your new created user and go to the Crew's administration page : http://your-crew-server/crew/admin.php/
Then, add a project :

• Project name : name of your project (ex: BombArena)
• Read-Only remote url : your git project origin, read only access recommended (ex: git://github.com/KuiKui/bombarena.git)
