Installation - Windows

Install PHP7.4

It’s crucial to install 7.4, not 8.x

Configure php.ini

Change log level to errors only:

error_reporting = E_COMPILE_ERROR|E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR|E_ERROR|E_CORE_ERROR

Make sure that the following extensions are uncommented

extension=php_curl.dll
extension=php_mbstring.dll
extension=php_openssl.dll
extension=php_pgsql.dll
extension=php_pdo_pgsql.dll

Download cacert.pem certificate and add path under below

curl.cainfo = "path_to_file\cacert.pem"

Go to PHP folder and Install composer:

CODE

php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"
php composer-setup.php --install-dir=./ --filename=composer

Install Postgres for Windows

Configuring the database in CMD

CODE

psql -U postgres
postgres=# create database webclient;
postgres=# create user webclient;
postgres=# alter user webclient with encrypted password 'webclient';
postgres-# grant all privileges on database webclient to webclient;

For Postgres 15 and newer here are additional steps:

CODE

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE webclient TO webclient;
\c webclient postgres
# You are now connected to database "webclient" as user "postgres".
GRANT ALL ON SCHEMA public TO webclient;

Copy and prepare the code

Clone the Web client package from GitHub. Go to /api/ folder and run the composer:

CODE

php.exe path_to_php_folder\composer install

Test the web server

For testing, we recommend using the built-in PHP web server. You can launch it using the following command:

CODE

start php.exe -S your_server_ip:port -t path_to_the_web_client

Where path_to_the_web_client is the path to the www folder of the package.
