# Symposium
[](https://github.com/tighten/symposium/actions)A web app for conference speakers to track talks, bios, and conferences. Free, available online at [Symposiumapp.com](http://symposiumapp.com/).
A fun side project by some lovely folks at [Tighten Co.](http://tighten.co/).
### Additional resources
* [Api documentation](doc/api.md)
### Requirements
* PHP >= 8.1
* A [supported relational database](http://laravel.com/docs/5.1/database#introduction) and corresponding PHP extension
* [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/download/)
* [NPM](https://nodejs.org/)
* [Google Places API Key](https://developers.google.com/places/web-service/get-api-key) for speakers to set their location. A configuration guide can be found [here](/google-guide.md).
* [Algolia](https://www.algolia.com/) Account### Installation
1. (Optionally) [Fork this repository](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/)
2. Clone the repository locally
3. [Install dependencies](https://getcomposer.org/doc/01-basic-usage.md#installing-dependencies) with `composer install`
4. Copy [`.env.example`](https://github.com/tighten/symposium/blob/master/.env.example) to `.env` and modify its contents to reflect your local environment.
5. Place your Algolia keys in the `.env` file. This is also required for running PHPUnit tests.
```bash
ALGOLIA_APP_ID=your-app-id-key
ALGOLIA_SECRET=your-secret-key
```
6. Generate an application key```bash
php artisan key:generate
```
7. [Run database migrations](http://laravel.com/docs/5.1/migrations#running-migrations). If you want to include seed data, add a `--seed` flag.```bash
php artisan migrate --env=local
```
8. (Optionally) Enable the API. This will output two client ID/secrets that you can use for testing```bash
php artisan passport:install
```
9. [Install frontend dependencies](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/install) with `npm install`
10. Build CSS with `npm run dev`
11. Configure a web server, such as the [built-in PHP web server](http://php.net/manual/en/features.commandline.webserver.php), to use the `public` directory as the document root.```bash
php -S localhost:8080 -t public
```12. Run tests with `composer test`.
