FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package kickoff-installer

Kickoff Installer

Kick start the development of your new website or web application. Hit the ground running with pre-configured Gulp tasks, linter configurations, a sensible directory structure and default meta files.

Installation

The Kickoff Installer requires the PHP package manager. Visit the Composer website for instructions on how to install it on your system.

Once you have Composer installed, you will need to require the installer as a global dependency:

composer global require "club/kickoff-installer"

Make sure that you've added the composer bin directory (~/.composer/vendor/bin or similar) to your PATH, otherwise your system will not be able to find the installer.

A quick Google search should help you find out how to add to your PATH. If you use fish shell it's as easy as running set --universal fish_user_paths $fish_user_paths ~/.composer/vendor/bin in your terminal.

Framework Support

The installer supports the following frameworks:

It is built so you can easily add support for additional frameworks/platforms without much fuss.

Kickoff + CraftCMS Usage Example

Create a new project directory and navigate into it:

then run:

This will download and install Kickoff, followed by CraftCMS and then configure the default CraftCMS install to work with Kickoff – including updating the default directory structure.

Clean Installs

If you would rather omit Kickoff and get you a clean install of the framework/platform you can use the --clean option.

e.g.

Custom Configuration

Each framework installer has it's own configuration. If you would like to make changes to the default settings you can use the config command. This will generate a configuration file (kickoff.json) for the specified framework installation script.

An example use case would be configuring the directory structure of a CraftCMS installation. Running kickoff config CraftCms would generate the necessary config file, which you can then customise to your individual needs.

Remember, you need to run kickoff config framework-name and make your changes before running kickoff new framework-name.
