Common problems and answers to frequently asked questions can be found here.
Should you have any remaining questions or issues please see getting help.
Setup for advanced users
You can install this software using docker with the instructions here.
Alternatively continue with the instructions below for installing on a system directly:
Prerequisites
- PHP 8 cli with pdo-pgsql (or pdo-mysql), curl, gd, pcntl and dom
- A webserver serving .php files (PHP 8 with pdo-pgsql (or pdo-mysql))
- (strongly recommended) HTTPS enabled server with certificate
- A PostgreSQL server (Any version from 9 and up should work, although testing has only been done on 11 and up)
- alternatively MySQL / MariaDB is supported, but PostgreSQL is recommended.
Overview of the setup process
Looking at the automated install script for debian install.sh alongside the following instructions
might be helpful. (Instructions for using it can be found here)
Clone this repository.
git clone https://github.com/robske110/IDDataLogger.git --recursive
Create a database (and a user) in your PostgreSQL (or other) server for this project and fill in the details into
config/config.example.json and .env.example. We’ll need these files later.
You can do this using the config setup wizard by running the config-wizard.sh script, or manually.
Note: for a detailed description of the possible config values visit config.md.
After creating the config.json from config.example.json run ./start.sh.
The necessary tables in the database will be automatically created.
After a successful connection to the db, the setup wizard will help you create an API key for the widget and a user for
the website. You can create additional API keys or add additional users at any time using ./start.sh --wizard.
All files in the public directory of this repository must now be placed somewhere in the webroot.
It is recommended to place them in the second level (not directly in webroot).
Then copy the .env file (created from .env.example) outside the webroot with the db credentials set in it.
Note:
env.php looks for a .env file two folders up from its location.
(If you put the contents of the public folder in /path/to/webroot/vwid/ it will look in /path/to/.env)
If you place the files deeper inside the webroot, please consider editing env.php and configuring the correct path in
the first line. It is strongly recommended keeping the .env file out of the webroot.
You can alternatively set the environment variables through your webserver. (Or anything else that populates php’s $_ENV)
You now need to set up your system to automatically start start.sh on system start. Using systemd is recommended.
You can now visit idView.php or use the iOS widget after setting it up!
Updating
To update the software at a later data execute git pull && git submodule update in the repository directory and
replace the files in the webroot with the new contents of the public folder. Make sure to restart the php process.
(The one started by start.sh)
