README

A new site built with Quire, the extensible CMS for PHP on Symfony. It comes with Quire's core, its default theme and the admin interface. Everything else, such as single sign-on or comments, is an extension you add with Composer.

Create a site

With only Docker on your machine (Docker Compose v2.10 or later):

docker run --rm -it -v "$PWD:/app" -w /app -u "$(id -u):$(id -g)" composer:2 create-project --no-install quire/skeleton mysite
cd mysite
docker compose build --pull
docker compose up --wait
docker compose exec php bin/console quire:install

The first start installs the dependencies, so it takes a minute. quire:install asks for the site's title, its language, and your email and password; you're the site's first admin.

If you have PHP 8.5 and Composer on your machine, composer create-project quire/skeleton mysite does the first step instead.

Open https://quire.localhost and accept the locally generated TLS certificate. The admin interface is at https://quire.localhost/admin. To use another name, set SERVER_NAME, e.g. SERVER_NAME=mysite.localhost docker compose up --wait. If ports 80 or 443 are taken, choose others: HTTP_PORT=8080 HTTPS_PORT=8443 HTTP3_PORT=8443 docker compose up --wait.

What's here

Path	Contents
extend.php	Small changes to the site with the same extenders that extensions use
templates/	Your versions of the theme's templates, e.g. templates/content/single.html.twig
assets/	The site's own styles and JavaScript, loaded after the theme's
config/	Symfony and Quire configuration; config/packages/quire.yaml for Quire's
src/	Your own PHP code, in the namespace App\
Dockerfile, compose*.yaml, frankenphp/	The Docker setup, for development and production

Content, users and settings are kept in PostgreSQL, and uploaded files on the storage_data volume, not in this directory: keep it in Git, and back up the site with bin/console quire:backup.
