Development Setup

It's helpful to work on the pnm-joomla project inside of a virtual machine. This allows for everyone to work in the exact same build environment without installing anything on the root-level of your local machine.

Mac OSX Instructions

Homebrew

Homebrew is "the missing package manager for OS X."

$ ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
$ brew install caskroom/cask/brew-cask

Vagrant

Vagrant is an amazing tool for managing virtual machines via a simple to use command line interface.

$ brew cask install virtualbox
$ brew cask install vagrant
$ brew cask install vagrant-manager

Joomlatools Vagrant box

The Joomlatools Vagrant box automates the setup of a Joomla development environment. It is capable of running a full featured LAMP stack with a single command so that you can start working on your Joomla projects quickly.

Get the latest version of joomla-vagrant from github

$ git clone git@github.com:joomlatools/joomla-vagrant.git

Now let's start the virtual machine (this will take a while the first time)

$ cd joomla-vagrant
$ vagrant up

Next, let's ssh inside of the virtual machine

$ vagrant ssh

From inside of the virtual machine, create a new joomla site

$ phpmanager use 5.3.29
$ joomla site:create pnm --joomla=3.3.6

Next, let's grab a copy of the site backup from the production server.

(Ask someone about where and how to get this)

Add the following line to /etc/hosts so that we can access the virtual machine from the browser easily.
