Version

The current version is 1.51 Gate Jump! See the Changelog.

EPCC Configuration

There is a single configuration file for EPCC: src/php/config.ini. You will need to maintain a separate version of that file outside of this repository for your production environment.

The rest of the information (Eclipse Phase content) is stored in the database. There is a full SQL dump of the database in src/database/database.sql.

Running via Docker

Docker is the recommended, and only officially supported method or running this app. While the setup steps below can be used for development, it is highly recommended that deployment be done via Docker.

The following command builds an image of the applciation that is ready to be deployed.

docker image build --tag ep-character-creator .

The official docker image can be found here

In most cases the following command will allow you to test the build image locally. It exposes a webserver on port 8080 that you can access to view the container.

docker container run --rm -it -p 8080:80 --name epcc ep-character-creator

If deploying to the internet, you may want to consider using your own '.env' file. Doing so allows you to change things like the error reporting location, or almost any other configuration. Simply add --enf-file custom.env to the run command above.

Local Development and Testing

You will need:

Database Setup

SQLite:

  1. Create a sqlite3 database 
    sed 's/\\n/ /g' database.sql > tmp.sql
sqlite3 --init tmp.sql database.sqlite
  2. Copy standalone.env to .env.

MySql

  1. create a MySql database 
    CREATE USER 'epcc_www'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '$DATABASE_PASSWORD';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON EclipsePhaseData.* TO 'epcc_www'@'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION;
CREATE DATABASE EclipsePhaseData;
USE EclipsePhaseData;
  2. Import the database 
    mysql -h localhost -u epcc_www -p'$DATABASE_PASSWORD' EclipsePhaseData < database/database.sql
  3. Configure database access in your custom .env file.
    See here for how to do that.

Saving database changes

SQLite:

To save changes made to the Sqlite database run:

echo -e ".once database.sql\n.dump"|sqlite3 database.sqlite

WARNING: If you use this feature, skip the sed step when creating the database.

Using the built in php web server

  1. Set up the database.
  2. From a command prompt in the top level of this project run php artisan serve
  3. Browse to http://localhost:8080
