Mozilla Phabricator

Prerequisites

docker
docker-compose
Firefox, or some other way to connect your browser to a SOCKS proxy.

Installation

Pull the repository into a separate (e.g. phabricator) directory.
For Phabricator only, from within the phabricator directory run docker-compose up --build.

Accessing the websites provided by the demo

Firefox configuration

You can either configure the existing Firefox to use our proxy, or run a preconfigured Firefox.

To configure your current browser:

Open Preferences -> Net Proxy -> Settings
Choose the Manual Proxy Configuration radio button
Set the Proxy HTTP Server to localhost, and the Port to 1090.

To run Firefox with an empty profile:

Please set the environment variable FIREFOX_CMD to /path/to/firefox if your system does not recognize the firefox command.
In a new terminal, run firefox-proxy, or firefox-proxy $(docker-machine ip) if you are using docker-machine.
A new browser with an empty profile will open.

Websites provided by the demo

Phabricator - http://phabricator.test

Preconfigured users:

For performing administration tasks in Phabricator, first log out of Phabricator and then go to the login page with the Login using BMO button and add ?admin=1 to the URL. You can also navigate directly to http://phabricator.test/auth/login/password:self/

user:admin, password:password123456789!

PHP Development:

Install Python dependencies:

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

After adding, renaming, or moving classes, run arc liberate to rebuild the class map:

$ invoke liberate

To test changes in code:

$ invoke test

Attaching your debugger

Our development container is outfitted with Xdebug, but you have to do some local setup to take advantage of it. Note that the following directions use PHPStorm as the example IDE, though any Xdebug-compatible app should work.

Start the development environment from the suite repository.
Configure your IDE/debugger's Xdebug settings:
1. Port 9000 should be included in the list of XDebug ports.
2. It should accept at least 10 simultaneous connections
3. Uncheck the "Notify if debug session was finished without being paused" option so that PhpStorm doesn't continually pop up a notification if web requests succeed without hitting a breakpoint. This allows background requests (fetching resources, bmo.feed requests, etc) to function without triggering warnings.
Configure your source mappings from your host's directories to your server's (docker container's) directories
1. It's recommended to have the arcanist and phabricator source code in your PHP's includes so that you can step into (debug) and Intellisense the vendor code
  - This can be set up by cloning phabricator and arcanist, then checking out the appropriate commits as defined in this repository's Dockerfile.
2. Create a new "server" configuration with the host as phabricator.test and the path mappings as shown below:
Test your mappings
1. Enable the debugger in PhpStorm
2. Set a breakpoint in LandoLinkEventListener
3. Go to phabricator.test/D1
4. Your IDE should have stopped the control flow on your breakpoint and be showing you debugger details

My pages are no longer loading after enabling debugging!?

Due to the phd daemon, there's four PHP processes that will attach to your debugger, but mostly sit in the background and be pretty quiet. If you don't bump your "Max. simultaneous connections" in your IDE, you'll find that the daemon processes hog these connections while Phabricator page loads will wait for one of these connections to become free (which won't, since the daemon processes won't stop unless Phabricator is turned off).

TL;DR: increase your "Max. simultaneous connections" to at least 10 (4 for the daemons, plus 6 as a buffer for all the concurrent http requests).

Useful debugging commands

docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.bmo.yml exec phabricator vi <filename>

docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.bmo.yml exec phabricator /app/phabricator/bin/differential extract <commit-sha>

docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.bmo.yml exec phabdb mysql --user=root --password=password
