README

Giply is a PHP class library that powers Giply-server. It's very much early stage, being used on several personal/small projects, so the options are pretty rudimentary at the moment.

The class is separated from the server component so that it could be integrated with other scripts.

Class: Giply.php

This class does all of the work pulling the latest data from the Git repo. It will look for a giply.json file in the project's working directory to overwrite any of the default variables. Additionally, if a composer.json file exists in the project's working directory, the class will attempt to download (if it's not already in the working directory) and run the composer.phar file.

giply.json

This JSON-based configuration file can overwrite basic information such as the log name, and can include an array of executable strings that will be run after the git repo has been updated and composer has been run. For example, you could remove a cache directory and re-add it.

{
    "post_exec": [
        "rm -rf cache",
        "mkdir cache",
        "chmod 777 cache"
    ]
}

####Note All of the post_exec scripts are run through PHP's exec command, so any php scripts would be run from the command-line and are not include'd in the script itself.
