Quick start

Demo#

Credentials#

Admin:#

User: admin@admin.com
Password: 1234rewq

User:#

User: user@user.com
Password: 1234rewq

You must change the password after installation.

Installation#

1. Download#

Download the zip file where you purchased SafeDynamicAPI and place it on your server.

2. Environment Files#

This package ships with a .env.example file in the root of the project.

You must rename this file to just .env

Note: Make sure you have hidden files shown on your system.

3. Create Database#

You must create your database(MySQL/MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQL Server or SQLite) on your server and on your .env file update the following lines:

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=your-database
DB_USERNAME=your-user
DB_PASSWORD=your-password

4. Artisan Commands#

The first thing we are going to do is set the keys that Laravel will use when doing encryption.

php artisan key:generate

php artisan jwt:secret

You should see a green message stating your key was successfully generated. As well as you should see the APP_KEY and JWT_SECRET variables in your .env file reflected.

It's time to see if your database credentials are correct.

We are going to run the built in migrations to create the database tables:

php artisan migrate

You should see a message for each table migrated, if you don't and see errors, than your credentials are most likely not correct.

We are now going to set the administrator account information.

Now seed the database with:

php artisan db:seed

You should get a message for each file seeded, you should see the information in your database tables.

5. Storage:link#

After your project is installed you must run this command to link your public storage folder for user avatar uploads (backend):

php artisan storage:link

6. Login#

After your project is installed and you can access it in a browser, click the login button on the right of the navigation bar.

The administrator credentials are:

Username: admin@admin.com

Password: 1234rewq

You will be automatically redirected to the backend. If you changed these values in the seeder prior, then obviously use the ones you updated to.

7. What's Next?#

At this point you have all that you need, you can browse the code base and build the rest of your application the way you normally would. Or you can visit other parts of the documentation to get a good grasp on what'ss going on behind the scenes.
