Artefakt Pattern Library Tool
=============================

[](#artefakt-pattern-library-tool)

Prerequisites
-------------

[](#prerequisites)

- [PHP 7.2+](https://php.net)
- [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/) (PHP dependency manager)

I recommend using the latest available version of PHP as a matter of principle.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Start a new Artefakt Pattern Library by running this on a command prompt (requires [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/) to be available as `composer`):

```
composer create-project --prefer-dist apparat/artefakt
cd
```

Please make sure to replace `` with the path and name of your project.

### Custom directories

[](#custom-directories)

If you want Artefakt to use other directories than the default ones, create a custom `composer.json` in your installation directory:

```
mkdir
cd
composer init

```

Edit your `composer.json` to specify one or more custom directories like this:

```
{
    "name": "your/project",
    "require": {
        "apparat/artefakt": "dev-master"
    },
    "extra": {
        "apparat/artefakt": {
            "components": "cpms", // Component data directory
            "documents": "docs", // Document data directory
            "cache": "/tmp/artefakt" // Cache directory
        }
    }
}
```

Relative paths are resolved against the installation directory (the directory where the `composer.json` resides). Finish the installation with:

```
composer install
vendor/bin/artefakt app:init

```
