URL Wallboard

Introduction

This project was built behind the idea of creating a generic wallboard that end users could use in order to create a simple wallboard for queue monitoring while connected to services at http://url.net.au/

Requirements

• Apache or Nginx or "Other"
• PHP
• PHP Sqlite3
• PHP Curl

Installation

Clone this repository to your web directory. (Parent of your web generally, not tested in a sub directory).

git clone git@github.com:hrabbit/url-wallboard.git

Install composer

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

Install requirements

php composer.phar update

You should be ready to roll. The 'web' directory is your DocumentRoot and therefore should be named to suite.

Configuration

Apache2

There is a .htaccess included in this repository ready to work. If required, tweak the RewriteBase directive to suite.

Nginx

Below are the requirements for your service configuration. Nginx is not my strongest area so any more info here will be taken appreciatively.

server {
    #site root is redirected to the app boot script
    location = / {
        try_files @site @site;
    }

    #all other locations try other files first and go to our front controller if none of them exists
    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ @site;
    }

    #return 404 for all php files as we do have a front controller
    location ~ \.php$ {
        return 404;
    }

    location @site {
        fastcgi_pass   unix:/var/run/php-fpm/www.sock;
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root/index.php;
        #uncomment when running via https
        #fastcgi_param HTTPS on;
    }
}
