Pixel Humain

Requierement

Php version : 5.4.X (minimum) MongoDB : 2.6.X (tested version - minimum) Mongo Driver : 1.4.5 (tested version - minimum)

##Installation ####Configure your php Verify your php configuration is right done lauching the command line

php --ini

The php.ini specified in the "Loaded Configuration File" option should be the right one. Check in this php.ini file the openssl extension is activated.

####must install a Php webserver Choose your favorite webserver (apache) or package (easyPhp, Wamp...) Edit the httpd.conf file and activate the line

LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

On Unix like OS : Linux Ubuntu, Debian :

• Step by step install CO2 on Ubuntu 16.04
• special for Debian Automated install script (not updated for CO2)

Otherwise

• Same rules as windows but choose a .so driver instead of a dll one.
• Here's a good doc
• manuel d'installation officiel PHP

On Windows OS :

• Get the dll from here https://s3.amazonaws.com/drivers.mongodb.org/php/index.html
• Download the 1.4.5 mongo driver version (php_mongo-1.4.5.zip)
• Extract the zip file.
• The right version driver depends on the version of php you're running with. Saying 5.X is your php version, choose the file :

if (X<5)
 php_mongo-1.4.5-5.X-vc9.dll
else
 php_mongo-1.4.5-5.X-vc11.dll

• Important : if you'are running with a 64bits platform choose the file with 'x86_64' in it.
• Copy the dll file in your directory : %php_dir%/ext
• In the php.ini add (the name of the dll file depends on your php install version) :

for php 5.5
extension=php_mongo-1.4.5-5.5-vc11.dll
or
for php 5.3
extension=php_mongo-1.4.1-5.3-vc9.dll

On Mac

If you are on mac OSX, read this readme first : Specific readme_macOS.md for Mac OSX

####install a mongo Database instance and admin tool

• Mongo installation
• Mongo administration-interfaces
• many of us use ROBOMONGO
• launch Mongo localy :

mongod --dbpath data/db

• inside your favorite mongo administration tool :
• create a database called pixelhumain
• create a user for the db : pixelhumain
• you can do this the simple mongo
• use pixelhumain
• db.addUser( "pixelhumain","pixelhumain" )

####Composer installation PixelHumain is set with composer in order to manage dependencies and libraries.

• Clone the repository in order to recover the files
• If you don't have it get the composer (https://getcomposer.org/)
• Create the file /ph/protected/config/dbconfig.php with your database name and URL.

$dbconfig = array(
    'class' => 'mongoYii.EMongoClient',
    'server' => 'mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/',
    'db' => 'pixelhumain',
);

You can find an example of dbconfig in the file /ph/protected/config/dbconfig.example.php

• Launch following commands to initiate the application : in cd path/to/pixelhumain/ph where you'll find composer.json

composer update
...
composer install

####Add the module citizenToolKit

To launch the application, you need to install the module citizenToolKit. See below to see how to install modules.

####Launch the application

• Launch you http webserver

• depending on how you webservers alias is configured here the alias is called ''ph'' and pointing to the folder you cloned test this url : http://localhost:8080/ph/index.php/test

• All the first line should be green.

right now you can access the application like 127.0.0.1/ph/index.php/anyModule to remove the index.php you'll need to configure your http.conf like this

Alias "/ph" "pathToProjectFolder/pixelhumain/ph"
<Directory "pathToProjectFolder/pixelhumain/ph">
Options FollowSymLinks Indexes
AllowOverride none
Order deny,allow
Allow from 127.0.0.1
deny from all
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks
IndexIgnore */*
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|assets|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /ph/index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
</Directory>

####Adding a Module

• at the same level of the /pixelhumain folder , create a folder called /modules

/pixelhumain
 /ph
 /doc ...
/modules

• cd modules

• git clone "any of the modules". Currently maintained modules are:

  • https://github.com/pixelhumain/communecter
  • https://github.com/pixelhumain/citizenToolKit
  • https://github.com/pixelhumain/opendata
  • https://github.com/pixelhumain/api

• front end URL : 127.0.0.1/ph/communecter

• api URL : 127.0.0.1/ph/communecter/api

• if any there's any initData to be installed you'll see the prompt

• sometimes you'll need to initData to install test Data sets

Init Data Base

Change to the folder modules/communecter/data is run the following commands:

• mongoimport --db pixelhumain --collection cities cities.json --jsonArray;
• mongoimport --db pixelhumain --collection lists lists.json --jsonArray ;

YOU SUCCEED ! READY TO CODE NOW !

####Understanding the structure and Yii Now you can follow urls to understand and dive into the code, which is a fairly standard and simple MVC ex : 127.0.0.1/ph/communecter/person/profile

• "communecter" is the module
• "person" is the controller file called PersonController.php
• "profile" is the action foun called actionProfile found in the above controller file

Valuing States Structure

• page region : List all Counties with minimal descritption
• city page : List local actors(directory), local Places
• people page :

##Roadmap short term

• add a person/citizen
• add and Association, Company
• add a State entity (city, county...)

##Document before coding Make a good habit of writing a doc or a doc corrected before embarking in the code. This avoids a tedious task of writing a doc after hit.
