Project Setup

Follow these steps to install and run Mintlify on your operating system: Step 1: Clone the repository

git clone git@github.com:larastore-io/laravel-react-inertia.git

Step 2: Navigate to project’s root directory and create .env file.

cp .env.example .env

Open .env file and adjust environment variables. Set application URL to be:

http://localhost or http://larastore.test (You will need to update hosts file) If you are setting the project up with docker.
http://localhost:8000 (Port might change if port 8000 is occupied) if you are setting the project up without docker.

For Docker
Without Docker

APP_URL=http://localhost

APP_URL=http://localhost:8000

If you want to use MySql instead of sqlite, modify the DB_* variables.

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=mysql
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=larastore
DB_USERNAME=sail
DB_PASSWORD=password

Step 3: Setup the Project There are two options to setup the project:

Setup with docker (using laravel sail)
Or setup manually

Setup with Docker
Manual Setup

You don’t need to have php, composer or npm commands available in your machine. You only need docker.

This command will install composer packages using docker and you should see vendor folder appearing in your file system.

docker run --rm \
    -u "$(id -u):$(id -g)" \
    -v "$(pwd):/var/www/html" \
    -w /var/www/html \
    laravelsail/php84-composer:latest \
    composer install --ignore-platform-reqs

Start the projectThe following command will start necessary docker containers and start the project at http://localhost port 80. -d flag will run the containers in detached mode.

./vendor/bin/sail up -d

Stop the projectIf you started the project without -d flag you can simply hit ctrl + c (cmd + c on Mac) to stop running containers. However if you started the project with -d you need to execute the following commands to stop running containers.

./vendor/bin/sail stop

If you want to drop all containers, execute

./vendor/bin/sail down

Running terminal commandsWhenever you need to execute terminal commands (such as artisan commands) you need to execute them from inside docker container.The command bellow will get you inside the docker container.

Before executing the command bellow make sure docker containers are up and running (By command ./vendor/bin/sail up

If you started docker containers without -d you probably need to open a new terminal and execute the following command there.

./vendor/bin/sail bash

Install npm dependencies

npm install

Start Vite Server

npm run dev

Make sure you have php, composer and npm commands available in your terminal

Install Dependencies

composer install && npm install

Start the application

composer run dev

If you are setting up the project with docker you need to execute every command from inside the container.

Step 4: Generate application key

php artisan key:generate

Step 5: Create storage link

php artisan storage:link

Step 6: Run Migrations

php artisan migrate --seed

Application URL Now you can access the application in your browser

http://localhost or http://larastore.test If you set up the project with docker.
http://localhost:8000 (Port might be different if port 8000 was occupied) if you are set up the project without docker.
