Sophisticated, lightweight & simple CMS, homepage: Bolt.cm
Bolt is a tool for Content Management, which strives to be as simple and straightforward as possible. It is quick to set up, easy to configure, uses elegant templates, and above all: It's a joy to use. Bolt is created using modern open source libraries, and is best suited to build sites in HTML5 with modern markup.
From a technical perspective: Bolt is written in PHP, and uses either SQLite, MySQL or PostgreSQL as a database. It's built upon the Silex framework together with a number of Symfony components and other libraries. Bolt is released under the open source MIT-license.
For continously inspecting our code, we use Scrutinizer CI. You can find all runs on our code base here.
Detailed instructions can be found in the Setup section in the documentation.
When you run into an issue, be sure to provide some details on the issue. Please include with your report:
- the (example) input;
- the output you expected;
- the output actually produced.
This way we can reproduce your issue, turn it into a test and prevent the issue from occurring in future versions.
For running unit tests you need phpunit
After installing, you can run the unit test suite by running
$ phpunit -c app/
This can now also be done by using app/nut:
$ php app/nut tests:run
The available extensions that ship with Bolt are going to be separated once we have a separate extension repository. We're planning for a neat way to install and manage extensions. However, this is not ready yet. Therefor, we temporarily list available third party extensions on this page.
Currently, these are the third party extensions we're aware of:
- TweetWidget by @bobdenotter
- Gist by @bobdenotter
- TagCloud by @axsy
- Newsletter subscription by @magabriel
The extensions can be placed in the app/extensions folder.
