Setup with Docker

1. Ensure you have Docker and Docker Compose installed on your system.
2. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/liberu-control-panel/control-panel-laravel.git
   cd control-panel-laravel
   

3. Copy the .env.example file to .env:

   cp .env.example .env
   

4. Update the .env file with your desired configuration, especially the CONTROL_PANEL_DOMAIN and LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL variables.
5. Run the setup script:

   ./setup.sh
   

The setup script will:

• Build the Docker images
• Start the Docker containers
• Run database migrations
• Seed the database
• Optimize Laravel

Once the setup is complete, you can access the control panel at http://localhost or the domain you specified in the .env file.

Docker Commands

• To start the containers:

  docker-compose up -d
  

• To stop the containers:

  docker-compose down
  

• To view container logs:

  docker-compose logs
  

• To run artisan commands:

  docker-compose exec control-panel php artisan <command>
  

Development Workflow

1. Make changes to your code locally.
2. The changes will be reflected in the running Docker containers due to volume mapping.
3. If you need to rebuild the containers after making changes to the Dockerfile or docker-compose.yml:

   docker-compose up -d --build
   

Troubleshooting

• If you encounter permission issues, you may need to adjust the ownership of the project files:

  sudo chown -R $USER:$USER .
  

• If the containers are not starting properly, check the logs:

  docker-compose logs
  

Building with Docker

To build the Dockerfile manually:

1. Ensure you have Docker installed on your system.
2. Open a terminal in the project folder.
3. Run the following command to build the Docker image:

   docker build -t control-panel-laravel .
   

4. Once the image is built, you can run the container with:

   docker run -p 8000:8000 control-panel-laravel
   

NOTE: Ensure your .env file is correctly configured with your database connection details before running migrations.

Using Laravel Sail

This project also includes support for Laravel Sail, which provides a Docker-based development environment. To use Laravel Sail, follow these steps:

1. Ensure you have Docker installed on your system.
2. Open a terminal in the project folder.
3. Run the following command to start the Laravel Sail environment:

   ./vendor/bin/sail up
   

4. Once the containers are running, you can access the application at http://localhost.
