prerequisites

  • Install Composer (https://getcomposer.org/)

config and setup

  • edit boostrap/start.php and change in the detectEnvironment-callback 'local' => array('WoodenDoors'), to include the name of your computer
  • edit app/config/local/database.php to match an existing mysql user and database on your machine (the datbase must be empty and match the collation in the database configuration)

  • execute php artisan db:seed (this fills the database with some data)
