Chapter: Creating an application
| « Using jelix scripts | ^ Getting started | Server configuration » |
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/
install/ scripts to install your application on other server
modules/ modules owned by your application
responses/ contains a class implementing a default HTML response.
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 the public files, readable directly by a browser
You have also a new directory temp/myapp, where all cached files generated by Jelix will be stored.
Now, you have to configure the server and your application before running it.
