INSTALL ON REMOTE WEBSERVER WITH GIT

If you are lucky and can use git on the webserver you can use git for deployment. Updates are very easy to deploy.

Requirements:

To get the code and put it in place execute the following commands on the commandline:

#connect to the server
ssh youruser@www.example.com

#change directory to document root
cd /var/www/kwf-cms-demo

#clone kwf-cms-demo (replace with your repository)
git clone git://github.com/vivid-planet/kwf-cms-demo.git .

#set permissions
chmod a+w uploads cache temp log log/* cache/*

#clone koala framework
git clone git://github.com/koala-framework/koala-framework.git kwf-lib
#switch to correct branch
cd kwf-lib
git checkout `cat ../kwf_branch`
cd ..

#clone required libraries
git clone git://github.com/vivid-planet/library.git library

#set path to libraries
echo "library/zend/%version%" > kwf-lib/include_path

As the webserver is already running you can now run the setup by opening the following url in a browser:

http://www.example.com/kwf/maintenance/setup

Simply follow the steps.

After installing you can start hacking! To clear caches simply open a shell in the installation folder and execute php bootstrap.php clear-cache. (or read more about that)

Update

To update execute the following in the installation directory:

    # pull application changes
    git pull

    # pull kwf changes
    cd kwf-lib
    git pull
    cd ..

    # pull library changes
    cd library
    git pull
    cd ..

    # execute update scripts
    php bootstrap.php update
