Local Testing Environment (Docker) - Recommended
================================================

[](#local-testing-environment-docker---recommended)

This configuration is provided **for developing and testing** the library in a standalone environment. Since Tangerine is a PHP library, this setup lifts a test application container to verify functionality.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### 1. Start Environment

[](#1-start-environment)

Lifts PHP 8.2 Apache + MySQL 5.7 containers.

```
docker-compose up -d --build
```

### 2. Install & Patch (Replaces Ant/Bower)

[](#2-install--patch-replaces-antbower)

Runs `composer install`, `bower install`, and applies patches (like `zend-test-patch.sh`) inside the container.

```
# Remove local lock file if present (to avoid platform mismatches)
rm -f composer.lock

docker-compose exec app bootstrap.sh
```

### 3. Initialize Test Database

[](#3-initialize-test-database)

Creates the `tangerine` database and users.

```
docker-compose exec app bash init_db.sh
```

### 4. Verify

[](#4-verify)

Access the test instance at .

### 5. Access Database

[](#5-access-database)

To access the MySQL database inside the container:

```
docker-compose exec db mysql -u root -p*** tangerine
```

Or to run a specific query:

```
docker-compose exec db mysql -u root -p*** tangerine -e "SELECT * FROM users WHERE md5_password = '31cb6a72f8f70612e27af0f59a9322ca';"
```
