How to install

I still want to make a simple install script which automates these steps, but for now:

Database

Create a Database at your host and execute the install/db.sql file in order to create the setup.

Settings

Create a settings file: private/Conf/settings.yaml. The contents of this file should be as follows:

database:
  host: DATABASE_HOSTNAME
  username: DATABASE_USERNAME
  password: DATABASE_PASSWORD
  database: DATABASE_NAME
  prefix: OPTIONAL_DATABASE_TABLE_PREFIX

Create your first user

• Decide for a username and password
• Hash the password with sha512 algorithm: https://passwordsgenerator.net/sha512-hash-generator/
• Insert the user in MySQL: INSERT INTO user (username, password, nickname, email) VALUES ('USERNAME', 'HASHED_PASSWORD', 'NAME OF OWNER', 'EMAIL ADDRESS');

How to use

Go to the /admin URL in order to start editing your site.
