Requirements

PHP 8.1

PostgreSQL

Description

Demo

http://transfermate.drpanchev.com/

Searching

Search is looking into both books and author names.

Installation

0. Clone the repo locally
1. Run composer install in order to get the dependencies
2. Rename .env.example to .env
3. Set the DB credentials in the .env file
4. Run php transfermate Install in order to create DB schema
5. Run php transfermate ScanFiles in order to scan the XML books from books directory and subdirectories. This file can be set as a CRON job as well in order to automatically refresh the database.
6. Set up a vhost or similar, which points to public directory
7. If you want to access the stored data, navigate to your project's root in the browser and you will see a search form and results.

Testing

Unit and functional tests are NOT provided.

Localization

Application is still not localized and all of the text is hardcoded into the template files.

What's missing:

1. Proper exception handler
2. Router
3. Other stuff a proper framework should have
