Chapter: Creating an application
| « Using jelix scripts | ^ Main concepts | Developing a module » |
The first thing before using Jelix is to create an application. You can create an application manually, but there is an easier way : use createapp command.
In a console, change directory to lib/jelix-scripts, and run:
php jelix.php --myapp createapp
myapp is the name of your application.
createapp create a myapp/ directory, at the same level of lib/ directory. Its content is :
myapp/
modules/ modules owned by your application
plugins/ plugins owned by your application
var/config/ configuration files of your application
var/log/ optional log files
var/themes/ different possible themes of your application
var/overloads/ will contain different files you will choose to overload from those in your modules
www/ root of application
You have also a new directory temp/myapp, where all cached files generated by Jelix will be stored.
Now, you have to configure your application before running it. See the documentation about configuration.
If you want to create an administration interface, go to the section Creating an administration interface.
