Getting started with OpnForm

The easiest way to get started with OpnForm is with the official managed service in the Cloud.

It takes 1 minute to try out the builder for free. You'll have high availability, backups, security, and maintenance all managed for you.

Requirements

• PHP >= 8.0
• MySQL/MariaDB or PostgreSQL
• Node.js and NPM/Yarn/... to compile assets

Installation

Docker installation 🐳

There's a docker compose setup automating most of the manual steps:

make up

The application is now running on http://localhost:4000. Alternatively, you may use the compose setup on its own

# Start the application
docker compose up -d server

# Run php commands, for example
docker compose run php-cli artisan about

# ...or update npm dependencies
docker compose run node-cli npm ci

make keeps track of all executed targets using .make.* files. In case you'd like to start from scratch (re-install dependencies, reset jwt token, run migrations, ...), run

make clean

After that, make will re-execute all targets upon the next execution.

Using Laravel Valet

This section explains how to get started locally with the project. It's most likely relevant if you're trying to work on the project. First, let's work with the codebase and its dependencies.

# Get the code!
git clone git@github.com:JhumanJ/OpnForm.git && cd OpnForm

# Install PHP and JS dependencies
composer install && npm install

# Compile assets (see the scripts section in package.json)
npm run dev # or build

Now, we can configure Laravel. We just need to prepare some vars in our .env file, just create it with cp .env.example .env then open it!

Configure the desired database in the DATABASE_ section. You can fine tune your installation on the laravel documentation.

Run these artisan commands:

# Generate needed secrets 🙈
php artisan key:generate
php artisan jwt:secret # and select yes!

# Creates DB schemas
php artisan migrate

Now, create an S3 bucket (or equivalent). Create an IAM user with access to this bucket, fill the environment variables: AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_DEFAULT_REGION, AWS_BUCKET. In your AWS bucket permissions, add the following under "Cross-origin resource sharing (CORS)":

[ { "AllowedHeaders": [ "*" ], "AllowedMethods": [ "PUT", "POST", "GET", "DELETE" ], "AllowedOrigins": [ "*" ], "ExposeHeaders": [] } ]

🎉 Done! Enjoy your personal OpnForm instance at: http://opnform.test.
