Requirements

The following tools are required in order to start the installation.

PHP 8.3
Composer
NPM
Valet

Installation

Note that you're free to adjust the ~/Sites/laravel.io location to any directory you want on your machine. In doing so, be sure to run the valet link command inside the desired directory.

Clone this repository with git clone git@github.com:laravelio/laravel.io.git ~/Sites/laravel.io
Run composer install to install the PHP dependencies
Set up a local database called laravel
Run composer setup to setup the application
Set up a working e-mail driver like Mailtrap
Run valet link to link the site to a testing web address
Create a testing database in MySQL so you can run the test suite
Configure the (optional) features from below

You can now visit the app in your browser by visiting http://laravel.io.test. If you seeded the database you can login into a test account with testing & password.

GitHub Authentication (optional)

To get GitHub authentication to work locally, you'll need to register a new OAuth application on GitHub. Use http://laravel.io.test for the homepage url and http://laravel.io.test/auth/github for the callback url. When you've created the app, fill in the ID and secret in your .env file in the env variables below. You should now be able to authentication with GitHub.

GITHUB_ID=
GITHUB_SECRET=
GITHUB_URL=http://laravel.io.test/auth/github

Algolia Search (optional)

To get Algolia search running locally, you'll need to register for a new account and create an index called threads. Algolia has a free tier that satisfies all of the requirements needed for a development environment. Now update the below variables in your .env file. The App ID and secret keys can be found in the API Keys section of the Algoila UI.

SCOUT_DRIVER=algolia
SCOUT_QUEUE=true

ALGOLIA_APP_ID=
ALGOLIA_SECRET="Use the Write API Key"

VITE_ALGOLIA_APP_ID="${ALGOLIA_APP_ID}"
VITE_ALGOLIA_SECRET="Use the Search API Key"

VITE_ALGOLIA_THREADS_INDEX=threads
VITE_ALGOLIA_ARTICLES_INDEX=articles
VITE_ALGOLIA_USERS_INDEX=users

In order to index your existing threads, run the following command:

php artisan scout:import App\\Models\\Thread

New threads will be automatically added to the index and threads which get updated will be automatically synced. If you need to flush your index and start again, you can run the following command:

php artisan scout:flush App\\Models\\Thread

Twitter Sharing (optional)

To enable published articles to be automatically shared on Twitter, you'll need to create a Twitter app. Once the app has been created, update the below variables in your .env file. The consumer key and secret and access token and secret can be found in the Keys and tokens section of the Twitter developers UI.

TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY=
TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET=
TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN=
TWITTER_ACCESS_SECRET=

Approved articles are shared in the order they were submitted for approval. Articles are shared twice per day at 14:00 and 18:00 UTC. Once an article has been shared, it will not be shared again.

Telegram Notifications (optional)

Laravel.io can notify maintainers of newly submitted articles through Telegram. For this to work, you'll need to set up a Telegram bot and obtain a token. Then, configure the channel you want to send new article messages to.

TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=
TELEGRAM_CHANNEL=

Fathom Analytics (optional)

To enable view counts on articles, you'll need to register a Fathom Analytics account and install it on the site. You will then need to create an API token and find your site ID before updating the below environment variables in your .env file.

FATHOM_SITE_ID=
FATHOM_TOKEN=

Unsplash (optional)

To make sure article and user header images get synced into the database we'll need to setup an access key from Unsplash. Please note that your Unsplash app requires production access.

UNSPLASH_ACCESS_KEY=

After that you can add an Unsplash photo ID to any article row in the hero_image_id column and run the sync command to fetch the image url and author data:

php artisan lio:sync-article-images

Commands

Command	Description
`vendor/bin/pest -p`	Run the tests with parallel execution
`php artisan migrate:fresh --seed`	Reset the database
