Getting Source Code from Git for Local Dev

Getting Source Code from Git

Once you have Setup Local Web Site, you need to clone git repo.

Finding Git Repo URL

You can find Git Repo url at top of Gitlab.



Cloning Git Repo (Downloading Source Code to your Computer)

First you need to delete the folder we created in previous post.

rm -rf ~/www/imagehostnow.com

Be careful with rm -rf as it delete directory with warning and no recycle bin. You may use File Manager and go to folder

/home/YOUR_USER_NAME/www/

and delete or rename folder "imagehostnow.com".

Now we are ready to clone the web site, run following commands in terminal.

cd ~/www
git clone ssh://[email protected]:10022/buyscripts/imagehost.git imagehostnow.com

You get something like

# git clone ssh://[email protected]:10022/buyscripts/imagehost.git imagehostnow.com
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/boby/www/imagehostnow.com/.git/
remote: Counting objects: 194, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (167/167), done.
remote: Total 194 (delta 57), reused 0 (delta 0)
Receiving objects: 100% (194/194), 311.04 KiB, done.
Resolving deltas: 100% (57/57), done.

In git clone command, we used web site name as last param. Git clone will create a folder with that name and clone git repo into that folder.

Now visit web site, you will see the web site.

First time i got error message while running the command:

cd ~/www/imagehostnow.com
composer install

The error message was like




Then retried the command again this time it worked fine without doing anything.

I got following result :

[admin]

Good. Always read error messages. It said

Failed to download..

That means composer can't download some files from github.com

That means one or more of the following

1. problem with your internet connection
2. github down
3. some thing wrong with connection from your pc and github, many thing can happen in between.

Now, go to web site

http://imagehostnow.dev

See if there any change in error you got before.

[sherlyk]

I got error page.

[admin]

Good. This is because we need to create some missing folders. I will give instructions for that shortly.

[admin]

To fix the permission error, run

chmod -R 777 ~/www/imagehostnow.com/app/storage/

What we doing here is give everyone write permission (the user that runs apache need to write to storage folder).

[admin]

Next time, when you see this type of error, run that command. So make sure you read the error message, then only you know which command to fix that type of error.
