Determined Development Laravel Starter Kit
==========================================

[](#determined-development-laravel-starter-kit)

This is a [Laravel](https://laravel.com) starter kit used by [Determined Development](https://determineddevelopment.com). It is not an official starter kit, but is instead a collection of preferences on top of the standard [Laravel Project Skeleton](https://github.com/laravel/laravel).

The modifications to the Laravel skeleton are mostly setup steps and composer requirements that configure the base application to fit our common usage patterns.

Local Environment Setup
-----------------------

[](#local-environment-setup)

The fastest way to work on this software locally is using [Laravel Sail](https://laravel.com/docs/11.x/sail).

**NB:** This will require [Docker](https://www.docker.com/).

### Configure the environment

[](#configure-the-environment)

Copy the file `.env.sail` to `.env` and update any necessary details. The majority of default settings in that file should be sufficient without modification, however you should review it to ensure that everything is correct.

### Installing sail and dependencies

[](#installing-sail-and-dependencies)

Once your environment is configured, you can install the application and dependencies with the following commands:

```
docker run --rm -u "$(id -u):$(id -g)" -v "$(pwd):/var/www/html" -w /var/www/html laravelsail/php82-composer:latest composer install --ignore-platform-reqs
alias sail="vendor/bin/sail"
sail up -d
sail composer install
sail artisan key:secret
sail npm ci
```

### Installing and seeding the database

[](#installing-and-seeding-the-database)

You can install the database and fill it with development data using the following command:

```
sail artisan migrate:fresh --seed --seeder=DevelopmentSeeder
```

**NB** If you have an existing database configured, `migrate:fresh` will drop all tables, resulting in unrecoverable data loss. It is likely a good idea to do this regularly to ensure that you aren't working with stale data.

### Build front-end assets

[](#build-front-end-assets)

You have to build the frontend assets (CSS and JavaScript) before you can use the application. This can be done with the following commands:

```
# To build all assets once
sail npm run build

# To watch for changes to assets so that the assets are automatically rebuilt as you make changes
sail npm run dev
```

### Access the site

[](#access-the-site)

Once this has been done, you should be able to access the site at .

#### Mail

[](#mail)

All emails will be sent to "Mailpit", which you can access at . This will capture all outbound email so that you can test updates as needed.

Code Quality
------------

[](#code-quality)

The following code quality tools are installed and configured. These tools *will* be run in CI, and merges will not be accepted without passing all tests. Automatic code style fixes *will not* be run in CI. Ensure that your code is compliant before pushing.

### Code Style

[](#code-style)

The project adheres the [PSR-12](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-12/) coding standard.

The following scripts are available to check and fix code style issues:

```
# Check for any code style issues
composer lint
# Attempt to fix any code style issues
composer lint:fix
```

Individual tools are also available:

#### [Laravel Pint](https://laravel.com/docs/11.x/pint)

[](#laravel-pint)

Configuration: `pint.json`

```
# Check for any code style issues
composer lint:pint
# Attempt to fix any code style issues
composer pint:fix
```

#### [PHP Code Sniffer](https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer)

[](#php-code-sniffer)

Configuration: `phpcs.xml.dist`

```
# Check for any code style issues
composer lint:phpcs
# Attempt to fix any code style issues (using phpcbf)
composer phpcs:fix
```

### Static Analysis

[](#static-analysis)

#### [LaraStan](https://github.com/larastan/larastan)

[](#larastan)

Configuration: `phpstan.neon`

```
composer test:types
```

### Testing

[](#testing)

Testing is done with the Laravel [testing framework](https://laravel.com/docs/11.x/testing), using [Pest](https://pestphp.com/) to provide the testing setup.

**WARNING:** Tests require a testing database. If you do not configure a test database, this *will* destroy your development database. This is not necessary if you are using Sail - the test database is already configured.

Configuration: `phpunit.xml`

```
# Architecture tests
composer test:arch
# Feature tests
composer test:feat
# Unit tests
composer test:unit
# All tests
composer test
```

### Run all Checks

[](#run-all-checks)

```
composer test:all
```

### Asset tests

[](#asset-tests)

Assets are tested using npm libraries.

#### [Biome](https://eslint.org/)

[](#biome)

Configuration: `biome.json`

```
# Check for any code style issues
npx biome check
# Attempt to fix any code style issues
npx biome check --write
# Include "unsafe" fixes
npx biome check --write --unsafe
```

#### [ESLint](https://eslint.org/)

[](#eslint)

Configuration: `eslint.config.js`

```
npx eslint
```

#### [OXLint](https://oxc.rs/docs/guide/usage/linter.html)

[](#oxlint)

Configuration: `.oxlintrc.json`

```
npx oxlint
```
