Installation

Requirements

  • PHP >= 7.0
  • A database, peferably MySQL (other databases supported by CakePHP3 are fine as well)
  • A webserver, preferably nginx or Apache 2.4 (Installation and configuration of your webserver is not part of this installation guide)

Get composer

See https://getcomposer.org/

Install application

Go to your desired installation directory and run the following command, to install the application using composer.

composer create-project steffenbrand/error-radar error-radar

Alternatively you could clone the git repository and run composer install afterwards.

Create an empty database

  • Preferably MySQL
  • utf8_general_ci
  • InnoDB

Configure database

Edit the config/app.php file.

cd error-radar
nano config/app.php

At the top of the file you will find the Datasources array.
Edit the configuration to your needs and save.

'port'      => '3306',
'driver'    => 'Cake\Database\Driver\Mysql',
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Migrate and seed database

Run the following commands from the applications root directory to create the database and insert a default admin user.

bin/cake migrations migrate
bin/cake migrations seed

Go for it

Login and create your categories, configure your servers and add plans. The admin default credentials (please change them immediately) are as follows:

user: admin
password: password

Security concerns

Error Radar stores the build servers passwords (encrypted) in the database, so make sure to ...

  • create and use accounts that have only READ access to the build servers REST API.
  • make it reachable only within your network.
  • separate the application server from the database server.
