   • PHP 8.0 or higher
   • Composer
   • MySQL (or other supported database)
   • Web server (Apache, Nginx, etc.)

   • Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/akassama/igniter-cms

   • Navigate to the project folder: cd igniter-cms

   • Install dependencies: composer install

   • Configure Database Connection:

     • The database configuration is managed via a .env file. If you don't have one, make a copy of the env file in the root directory of your project and rename it .env.
     • Add the following database configuration settings to your .env file, replacing the placeholder values with your actual database credentials:

     database.default.hostname = localhost
     database.default.database = igniter_db
     database.default.username = root
     database.default.password =
     database.default.DBDriver = MySQLi
     database.default.DBPrefix =
     database.default.port = 3306
     

     Make sure to update the hostname, username, password, and database fields with your database connection details.

   • Create the Database: Using your database management system (e.g., PhpMyAdmin), create a new database with the same name specified in .env.

   • Set Up Base URL: Set your base URL in the .env file. app_baseURL = 'http://localhost/igniter-cms/'

   • Generate App Key: php spark generate:key This command will generate/update the application key (APP_KEY) in the .env file

   • Run migrations: php spark recreate:tables and type yes.. This command will execute all available migrations, creating the necessary database tables.

   • Start the Application Ensure that your local server (e.g., Apache, Nginx) is running, then navigate to the base URL you set earlier, E.g. https://localhost/igniter-cms

   • Default Admin Login

     You can log in using the default Admin credentials:

     • Email: admin@example.com
     • Password: Admin@1

     To modify the default Admin login, go to the migration file located at app/Database/Migrations/2024-08-27-210112_Users.php and update the $data[] array accordingly.

3. Permissions: Ensure writable and public/uploads directories are writable by the web server.

4. Email Configuration: To enable email functionality, you need to configure your SMTP in .env
