Installation/Configuration

1. Download source files
   • Using Git

git clone https://github.com/bogcon/webym.git

- Direct download of *.zip* archive from [here](https://github.com/bogcon/webym/archive/master.zip)  

2. Install depedencies using Composer
   Then you can run the Composer install/update command from the root directory of the project (where composer.json file resides)

# download composer (skip the next command if you already have composer)
$ curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

# install dependencies
$ php composer.phar install
$ php composer.phar update

3. Copy webym/includes/config.local.php.dist to webym/includes/config.local.php and edit the last one with the API key and API secret obtained from Yahoo developer account after creating an application.

4. Configure a (virtual) host for the project

Example of Local Apache Web Server Configuration

You now need to create an Apache virtual host for the application and edit your hosts file so that http://webym.dev will serve index.php from the webym/public directory.

Setting up the virtual host is usually done within `httpd.conf` or `extra/httpd-vhosts.conf`. If you are using `httpd-vhosts.conf`, ensure that this file is included by your main `httpd.conf` file.  

Some Linux distributions (ex: Ubuntu) package Apache so that configuration files are stored in /etc/apache2 and create one file per virtual host inside folder /etc/apache2/sites-enabled. In this case, you would place the virtual host block below into the file /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/webym.dev.conf, also you should copy the file or create a symlink into /etc/apache2/sites-available/webym.dev.conf (ln -s /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/webym.dev.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/webym.dev.conf)

Ensure that `NameVirtualHost` is defined and set to `*:80` or similar, and then define a virtual host along these lines:  

    <VirtualHost *:80>
            ServerName webym.dev
            ServerAlias www.webym.dev
            DocumentRoot /path/to/webym/public
            <Directory /path/to/webym/public>
                DirectoryIndex index.php
                AllowOverride All
                Order allow,deny
                Allow from all
            </Directory>
    </VirtualHost>  

Make sure that you add the following line to your `/etc/hosts` or `C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts` file so that `webym.dev` is mapped to `127.0.0.1`.  

    127.0.0.1   webym.dev www.webym.dev  
After restarting apache, the website can then be accessed using `http://webym.dev` or `http://www.webym.dev`.
