Hi, I've been struggling in making remote code coverage work and I finally figured out that the config file path was wrong. I haven't seen any documentation telling to update that path (weird). Furthermore, it is kind of impossible to debug as it generates a corrupted tar file (because of the error generated by the wrong config file path probably) that ends up by having an non-related error message (like "unable to decompress gzipped phar archive"). There is another way to do it, by setting the env var HTTP_X_CODECEPTION_CODECOVERAGE_CONFIG but, even though I don't like changing manually c3.php, I still prefer that than using env var as it wouldn't be linked anymore with your project but with your environment (that can be shared with other projects) settings. And I don't know if it would be possible that codeception set this var (as it actually knows the path) to make it available to c3.php, in fact I haven't seen anything setting this var up in codeception code. Cheers, Nico
Yii 2 Basic Project Template
Yii 2 Basic Project Template is a skeleton Yii 2 application best for rapidly creating small projects.
The template contains the basic features including user login/logout and a contact page. It includes all commonly used configurations that would allow you to focus on adding new features to your application.
DIRECTORY STRUCTURE
assets/ contains assets definition
commands/ contains console commands (controllers)
config/ contains application configurations
controllers/ contains Web controller classes
mail/ contains view files for e-mails
models/ contains model classes
runtime/ contains files generated during runtime
tests/ contains various tests for the basic application
vendor/ contains dependent 3rd-party packages
views/ contains view files for the Web application
web/ contains the entry script and Web resources
REQUIREMENTS
The minimum requirement by this project template that your Web server supports PHP 5.4.0.
INSTALLATION
Install from an Archive File
Extract the archive file downloaded from yiiframework.com to
a directory named basic
that is directly under the Web root.
Set cookie validation key in config/web.php
file to some random secret string:
'request' => [
// !!! insert a secret key in the following (if it is empty) - this is required by cookie validation
'cookieValidationKey' => '<secret random string goes here>',
],
You can then access the application through the following URL:
http://localhost/basic/web/
Install via Composer
If you do not have Composer, you may install it by following the instructions at getcomposer.org.
You can then install this project template using the following command:
php composer.phar global require "fxp/composer-asset-plugin:~1.0.0"
php composer.phar create-project --prefer-dist --stability=dev yiisoft/yii2-app-basic basic
Now you should be able to access the application through the following URL, assuming basic
is the directory
directly under the Web root.
http://localhost/basic/web/
CONFIGURATION
Database
Edit the file config/db.php
with real data, for example:
return [
'class' => 'yii\db\Connection',
'dsn' => 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=yii2basic',
'username' => 'root',
'password' => '1234',
'charset' => 'utf8',
];
NOTE: Yii won't create the database for you, this has to be done manually before you can access it.
Also check and edit the other files in the config/
directory to customize your application.
