Phproject is an open-source project management tool that allows individuals and teams to organize and manage their projects efficiently.
If you are a Manjaro user and want to install Phproject on your system, here is a step-by-step tutorial for you.
Before starting the installation process, make sure your system meets the following requirements:
Open the terminal and run the following command to install the required packages:
sudo pacman -S mariadb php php-fpm php-gd php-ldap php-sqlite php-curl php-mbstring composer git
This command will install MariaDB or MySQL database server, PHP, PHP extensions, Composer, and Git on your system.
Log in to MariaDB or MySQL server as the root user:
sudo mysql -u root -p
Create a new database for Phproject:
CREATE DATABASE phproject_db;
Create a new user and set the password:
CREATE USER 'phproject_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
Grant privileges to the user on the Phproject database:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON phproject_db.* TO 'phproject_user'@'localhost';
Exit from the MariaDB or MySQL server:
exit
Create a new directory for Phproject:
sudo mkdir /var/www/phproject
Change the ownership of the directory to the web server user:
sudo chown -R http:http /var/www/phproject
Navigate to the directory:
cd /var/www/phproject
Clone Phproject from the GitHub repository:
git clone https://github.com/phproject/phproject.git .
Run the following command to install the dependencies:
sudo composer install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader
Copy the sample configuration file:
cp config/config.yml.sample config/config.yml
Edit the configuration file with your database credentials:
sudo nano config/config.yml
Update the following lines:
dsn: 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=phproject_db'
username: 'phproject_user'
password: 'password'
Save and close the file.
Create a new virtual host file:
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/extra/phproject.conf
Add the following content to the file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName phproject.local
DocumentRoot "/var/www/phproject/public"
<Directory />
AllowOverride none
Require all denied
</Directory>
<Directory "/var/www/phproject/public">
AllowOverride all
Require all granted
</Directory>
ErrorLog "/var/log/httpd/phproject.error_log"
CustomLog "/var/log/httpd/phproject.access_log" combined
</VirtualHost>
Save and close the file.
Enable the virtual host:
sudo a2ensite phproject
Restart the Apache server:
sudo systemctl restart httpd
Create a new virtual host file:
sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/phproject.conf
Add the following content to the file:
server {
listen 80;
server_name phproject.local;
root /var/www/phproject/public;
location / {
index index.php;
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
}
access_log /var/log/nginx/phproject.access_log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/phproject.error_log;
}
Save and close the file.
Restart the Nginx server:
sudo systemctl restart nginx
Open your web browser and enter the following URL:
http://phproject.local/setup
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup process.
After the setup, you can access Phproject by entering the following URL:
http://phproject.local
In this tutorial, you have learned how to install Phproject on Manjaro. Now you can use Phproject to manage your projects effectively.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
