# ivy
Yet another sleek simple fast CMS with an effortless template and plugin environment
[](https://getcomposer.org/)
[](https://www.npmjs.com/)
[](https://www.php.net/)
## Install
#### 1. Navigate to your project folder
Open terminal and navigate to your project folder:
```bash
cd path/to/your/ivy/project
```
#### 2. Download ivy files
Use [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) to create a new project with **ivy**:
```bash
composer create-project joepdooper/ivy .
```
#### 3. Configure
Rename the `example.env` file to `.env`.
#### 4. Setup
##### Option A - Start the containers (recommended)
If you have Docker or Podman run:
```bash
./vendor/bin/cultivate
```
##### Option B - Start webserver and set up the database
Create a database for **ivy** and import the provided [`ivy.sql`](docker/mysql/ivy.sql) file:
```bash
mysql -u your_database_username -p your_database_name < docker/mysql/ivy.sql
```
If you are not using the provided Docker or Podman compose files, update the .env file with your database credentials and make sure your web server points to the `public/` folder inside this project [`000-default.conf`](docker/sites-available/000-default.conf). Additionally, ensure that the `public/` and `cache/` folders have the proper permissions so your web server can read and write to them as needed.
## Login
#### Accessing the backend
To access the "backend" for the first time, after the installation, follow these steps:
1. Navigate to `yourserver.com/admin/login` (user icon)
2. Use the credentials `admin@localhost.test` and `00000`
3. Upon successful login, you will be directed to the profile page with *super_admin* rights
#### Changing email and password
Open the `.env` file and update it with your mailbox credentials. If you've modified the `.env` file, follow these steps:
1. Upon login, on the profile page, modify and submit your email address to initiate the email change process
2. After successfully changing your email address, go to `yourserver.com/admin/logout` to log out (logout icon)
3. Finally, navigate to `yourserver.com/admin/reset` to initiate the password reset process
