A demonstration of the Minim single-user authentication library.
You'll need to have a web server installed and configured with PHP for this to work. I really recommend XAMPP, especially for Windows users. Once you've done that you can proceed.
You'll also need Node.js and npm installed and working.
Clone the project down and open the folder in your favourite editor. It's a JetBrains PhpStorm project but you can use whichever paid/free software takes your fancy.
Before anything else, note that this project uses the Composer package manager. Install composer (see their website) and run:
composer install
Or alternatively, if you're using the PHAR (make sure the php.exe
executable is in your PATH):
php composer.phar install
Then, install the npm packages necessary to build and run the website. Run the following in your terminal in the project root directory:
npm install
This will install Bower which will allow you to install the assets the website requires (Bootstrap, jQuery etc.) using the command:
bower install
Gulp will also have been installed. This will compile the Less into CSS ready for production. Do this using the command:
gulp
This command will need running again every time you make a change to a Less file. If you're working on them, run gulp watch
in a terminal to watch for file changes and compile accordingly.
This demo application comes with a set of default credentials.
Email: me@example.com
Password: demo
These must be changed before you go into production. Set everything up according to the configuration guide for Minim.
Don't rely on Minim to be secure out of the box and always perform your own penetration testing.
