The issue tracker application requires a server running:

• PHP 7.2 or 7.3
  • PHP's ext/curl and ext/intl should also be installed
• MySQL 5.5.3 with InnoDB support (required to support the MySQL utf8mb4 charset)

The application also has external dependencies installable via Composer and NPM.

See also: Dependencies.

Note: All references to bin/jtracker refer to an executable symlink to cli/tracker.php. If you cannot execute the bin/jtracker symlink replace that path with cli/tracker.php

1. Clone the git repo to where ever your test environment is located or download a ZIP file.
   • Note If you plan to contribute to the project, you might have to use git clone --recursive to get the submodules checked out.
2. Copy etc/config.dist.json to etc/config.json.
3. In the etc/config.json file, enter your database credentials and other information.
4. Run composer install (or the equivalent for your system) to install dependencies from Composer.
   • If you need to install Composer, you can do so from http://getcomposer.org/download/.
5. From a command prompt, run the install command to set up your database.
   • bin/jtracker install

If you are making a change to the issue tracker's web assets, you'll also need to set up NPM. Please see the Asset Management documentation for more information.

Verify the installation is successful by doing the following:

1. View the site in your browser.
2. Run the get project command to pull issues, issue comments and other information related to the project from GitHub.
   • bin/jtracker get project

As an alternative method, there is a setup for a virtual test environment using Vagrant and VirtualBox.

If you want the 'Login with GitHub' button to work properly you'll need to register an app with GitHub. To do this manage your account at github.com and go to the applications page. Create a new application.

You'll be asked for the application URL and the callback URL. This can be your test server or your localhost environment. As long as you enter the URL that your localhost app is running on. An example might be http://jissues.local.

Once you've registered the app at GitHub you'll receive a Client ID and a Client Secret, enter these into your installation's etc/config.json file, along with your GitHub login credentials. You should now be able to login with GitHub successfully.
