You can check out Happy Lager online from demo.craftcms.com.

If you want to install the site locally, follow these instructions:

  1. Download/clone the repo on your computer:

    git clone https://github.com/craftcms/demo.git happylager.test
  2. Run composer install within the clone:

    cd happylager.test
    composer install
  3. Copy the .env.example file at the root of the project to .env, and set its DB_SERVER, DB_USER, and DB_PASSWORD variables to the correct values. (If you’re on a Mac, you may need to type Command + Shift + . in Finder to show hidden files.)

  4. Ensure that the following files and directories have permissions that will allow PHP to read and write to them:

    • .env
    • composer.json
    • composer.lock
    • config/license.key
    • storage/*
    • vendor/*
    • web/cpresources/*
  5. Run this command in the CLI from your project's root to automatically generate a security key for the site: php craft setup/security-key

  6. Create a new MySQL database called happylager, and import happylager.sql into it.

  7. Create a new virtual host with the hostname happylager.test that points to the happylager.test/web/ folder.

  8. Edit your hosts file to resolve happylager.test to 127.0.0.1, if necessary.

Now point your browser at http://happylager.test. You should see the Happy Lager homepage.
