Scriptlog is a simple, secure, modular, and robust personal blogging platform. It is a refactored fork of Piluscart 1.4.1, engineered to emphasize simplicity, privacy, and security without the overhead of a complex Content Management System.

Project Overview
----------------

[](#project-overview)

Scriptlog is not designed to replace full-scale CMS frameworks. Instead, it is meticulously engineered to:

- Power personal weblogs that do not require a heavy CMS.
- Provide a secure foundation for blogging with modern security practices.
- Run fast with minimal overhead.

### Core Technologies

[](#core-technologies)

- **Backend:** PHP 7.4+ (PSR-12 compliant)
- **Database:** MySQL 5.7+ / MariaDB 10.3+
- **Architecture:** Multi-layered MVC-like (`Request` → `Controller` → `Service` → `DAO` → `Database`)
- **Security:** Laminas (Escaper, Crypt), Defuse PHP Encryption, voku Anti-XSS, HTMLPurifier.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

Ensure your hosting environment meets the following requirements:

- **PHP:** 7.4.33 or higher
- **Web Server:** Apache (with `mod_rewrite` enabled) or Nginx
- **Database:** MySQL 5.6+ or MariaDB 10.3+
- **Extensions:** `pdo`, `mysqli`, `curl`, `gd`, `mbstring`, `fileinfo`, `zip`, `exif`

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

[](#installation)

1. **Download & Extract**Unzip the package into your web root directory.
2. **Install Dependencies**Scriptlog uses Composer for dependency management.

    ```
    composer install
    ```
3. **Set Permissions**Ensure the following directories are writeable by the web server user:

    - `install/`
    - `public/log/`
    - `public/cache/`
    - `public/themes/`
    - `admin/plugins/` (if present)
4. **Database Setup**Create a new empty database (use `utf8mb4_general_ci` collation).
5. **Run the Installer**Navigate to `/install/` in your web browser (e.g., `http://your-site.com/install/`) and follow the wizard:

    - Requirement Check
    - Database Configuration
    - Administrator Account Setup
6. **Cleanup (Critical)**For security purposes, **delete the `install/` directory** immediately after installation is complete.

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

If the installer cannot write the configuration file, rename `config.sample.php` to `config.php` and update it manually:

```
return [
    'db' => [
         'host' => 'localhost',
         'user' => 'your_db_user',
         'pass' => 'your_db_password',
         'name' => 'your_db_name'
      ],
    'app' => [
         'url'   => 'http://your-site.com',
         'email' => 'admin@example.com',
         'key'   => 'generated-app-key'
     ]
];
```

Directory Structure
-------------------

[](#directory-structure)

- `admin/`: Administrator panel logic and UI.
- `lib/`: Core application logic (Controllers, Services, DAOs).
- `public/`: Web root for assets, themes, and user uploads.
    - `themes/`: Frontend templates.
    - `files/`: User uploads.
- `tests/`: PHPUnit test suite.
- `docs/`: Developer guides and API documentation.

Development
-----------

[](#development)

Scriptlog adheres to **PSR-12** coding standards and uses **Conventional Commits**.

### Key Commands

[](#key-commands)

- **Run Tests:** `vendor/bin/phpunit`
- **Setup Test DB:** `php tests/setup_test_db.php`

### Architecture Pattern

[](#architecture-pattern)

When adding features, follow the layered implementation pattern:

1. **DAO:** `lib/dao/` (Database interactions)
2. **Service:** `lib/service/` (Business logic)
3. **Controller:** `lib/controller/` (Request handling)

Security Features
-----------------

[](#security-features)

- **Authentication:** Custom secure session handler (`SessionMaker`).
- **CSRF:** Protected via `CSRFGuard` and `csrf_defender`.
- **XSS:** Multi-layered prevention using `Anti-XSS` and `HTMLPurifier`.
- **Encryption:** Sensitive data encrypted using `defuse/php-encryption`.
