Requirements

The issue tracker application requires a server running:

• PHP 5.3.10 or later (Joomla Framework minimum version)
• MySQL 5.1 with InnoDB support

The application also has external dependencies installable via Composer. You can run ant installdep if you have ANT installed or composer update --dev from the command line.

Setup

1. Clone the git repo to where ever your test environment is located or download the ZIP from https://github.com/joomla/jissues/zipball/framework
   NOTE The currently active working branch is the framework branch
2. Copy /etc/config.dist.json to /etc/config.json.
3. Enter your database credentials in the /etc/config.json file.
4. Install dependencies from Composer by running composer install (or the equivalent for your system). If you need to install Composer, you can do so from http://getcomposer.org/download/.

From this point, you can setup your database in one of two ways:

Preferred

1. From a command prompt, run the script located at cli/tracker.php with the install option to set up your database.
   tracker.php install

• This option will prompt you for the creation of an Administrative user account.

Alternate

If you are in an environment where you cannot execute PHP scripts from the command line, you can set up your database with the following steps:

1. Open /etc/mysql.sql and do a find/replace from #__ to whatever your prefix is, and save.
2. Import the SQL into your database.

• When using this option, you will need to manually create an Adminstrative user account.

After setting up your database, verify the installation is successful by doing the following:

1. View site in browser to verify setup
2. Open a console and execute cli/tracker.php with the retrieve option to pull issues and issue comments from GitHub. cli/tracker.php retrieve issues
cli/tracker.php retrieve comments

For more information on the CLI script see the cli/readme.md file.
