Hi there, Thank you for your interest in this project. I'm delighted to announce that this is my last project for my PHP/Symfony training with OpenClassrooms (which means I'll then have more time to explore new projects and of course for the job search! wohooo!). Regarding this project, it's about upgrading an old application and testing it using PhpUnit. We also explore how to write a technical documentation as well as a code audit with the help of Blackfire and Codacy.

Please let me know what you think about this project. I'm always open to improvements!

Homepage of the upgraded application (It is a task management application)

Homepage after login

Features

Upgrade an application from Symfony 3 to 6 (which is the latest version currently)

New functions concerning the autentication are added (user roles etc)

Technical documentation has been created to explain how authentication works in the application

Code audio has been created to analyse the quality of code and the performance

Prerequisites

PHP >=8.0.2

Symfony > 6.0

Local server, e.g. XAMPP/WAMP for local use.

MySQL database management tool, e.g PhpMyAdmin

Libraries will be installed using Composer.

Starting the application

You can run the application on your computer for development and testing purposes by following the simple steps below:

Installation

Step1 Clone / Download

Clone the repository of this page.

Step 2 Configure environment variables

Open .env file and modify line 30 (database URL) with your own detail.

Step 3 Install all dependencies

Install Composer if you do not have it yet.
In your cmd, go to the directory where you want to install the project and install dependencies with composer with the commands below:

$ cd some\directory

$ composer install

All dependencies should be installed in a vendor directory.

Step 4 Create database

Create a new database using the command below:

$ php bin/console doctrine:database:create

$ php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate

You can import fixture by running the command below:

$ php bin/console doctrine:fixtures:load

Step 5 (optional) Configuring database for Tests

If you want to run the Tests, it is always recommanded to use a seperate database, to do it, you can follow the command below:

$ php bin/console --env=test doctrine:database:create

$ php bin/console --env=test doctrine:schema:create

In order to load the fixtures for the test purpose, you can run the command as below:

$ php bin/console --env=test doctrine:fixtures:load

Here you are!

Wohoo! You are ready to go! If you use symfony local server, simply run

$ symfony serve: start

Have a great day! Looking forwards to sharing more projects/news with you!
