Chamilo is an e-learning platform, also called "LMS", published under the GNU/GPLv3+ license. It has been used by more than 30M people worldwide since its inception in 2010. This is a development version. For the current stable branch, please select the 1.11.x branch in the Code tab.

## Quick install

**Chamilo 2.0 is still in development. This installation procedure below is for reference only. For a stable Chamilo, please install Chamilo 1.11.x. See the 1.11.x branch's README.md for details.**

We assume you already have:

- composer 2.x - https://getcomposer.org/download/
- yarn +4.x - https://yarnpkg.com/getting-started/install
- Node >= v18+ (lts) - https://github.com/nodesource/distributions/blob/master/README.md
- Configuring a virtualhost in a domain, not in a sub folder inside a domain.
- A working LAMP/WAMP server with PHP 8.1+

### Software stack install (Ubuntu)

You will need PHP8+ and NodeJS v18+ to run Chamilo 2.
On a fresh Ubuntu 22.04, you can prepare your server by issuing an apt command like the following with sudo (or as root, but not recommended for security reasons):

~~~~
sudo apt update
sudo apt -y upgrade
sudo apt -y install ca-certificates curl gnupg software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt update
sudo apt install apache2 libapache2-mod-php8.1 mariadb-client mariadb-server php-pear php8.1-{dev,gd,curl,intl,mysql,mbstring,zip,xml,cli,apcu,bcmath,soap} git unzip
~~~~
If you already have nodejs installed, check the version with `node -v`
Otherwise, install node 18 or above:
* following the instructions here: https://deb.nodesource.com/node_20.x/.
  The following lines use a static version of those instructions, so probably not very sustainable over time
~~~~
cd ~
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/gpgkey/nodesource-repo.gpg.key | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/nodesource.gpg
NODE_MAJOR=20
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/nodesource.gpg] https://deb.nodesource.com/node_$NODE_MAJOR.x nodistro main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list
apt update && apt -y install nodejs
~~~~
* Other option to install nodejs is by using NVM (Node Version Manager). You can install it following the instructions [here](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm#installing-and-updating).
  Then, you can install the node version required. Preferably, the LTS version.
~~~~
sudo nvm install --lts
sudo nvm use --lts
~~~~
With NodeJS installed, you must enable corepack and then continue with the requirements
~~~~
sudo corepack enable
cd ~
# follow the instructions at https://getcomposer.org/download/
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
# optionally, you might want this:
sudo apt install libapache2-mod-xsendfile
sudo a2enmod rewrite ssl headers expires
sudo systemctl restart apache2
~~~~

When your system is all set, you can use the following:

~~~~
cd /var/www
git clone https://github.com/chamilo/chamilo-lms.git chamilo2
cd chamilo2
composer install
# not recommended to do this as the root user!
# when asked whether you want to execute the recipes or install plugins for some of the components,
# you can safely type 'n' (for 'no').

yarn set version stable
# delete yarn.lock as it might contain restrictive packages from a different context
yarn up
yarn install
yarn dev
# you can safely ignore any "warning" mentioned by yarn dev
sudo touch .env
sudo chown -R www-data: var/ .env config/
~~~~

In your web server configuration, ensure you allow for the interpretation of .htaccess (`AllowOverride all` and `Require all granted`), and point the `DocumentRoot` to the `public/` subdirectory.

### Web installer

Once the above is ready, enter the **main/install/index.php** and follow the UI instructions (database, admin user settings, etc).

After the web install process, change the permissions back to a reasonably safe state:
~~~~
chown -R root .env config/
~~~~

## Quick update

If you have already installed it and just want to update it from Git, do:
~~~~
git pull
composer install

# Database update
php bin/console doctrine:schema:update --force --complete

# Clean Symfony cache
php bin/console cache:clear

# js/css update
yarn install
yarn dev
~~~~
This will update the JS (yarn) and PHP (composer) dependencies in the public/build folder.

Some times there are conflicts with existing files so to avoid those here are some hints :
- for composer errors you can remove the vendor folder and composer.lock file
- for yarn erros you can remove yarn.lock .yarn/cache/* node_modules/*
- when opening Chamilo, it does not load, then you can delete var/cache/*

### Refresh configuration settings

In case you believe some settings in Chamilo might not have been processed correctly based on an incomplete migration
or a migration that was added after you installed your development version of Chamilo, the URL /admin/settings_sync is
built to try and fix that automatically by updating PHP classes based on the database state.
This issue rarely happens, though.

## Quick re-install

If you have it installed in a dev environment and feel like you should clean it up completely (might be necessary after changes to the database), you can do so by:

* Removing the `.env` file
* Load the {url}/main/install/index.php script again

The database should be automatically destroyed, table by table. In some extreme cases (a previous version created a table that is not necessary anymore and creates issues), you might want to clean it completely by just dropping it, but this shouldn't be necessary most of the time.

If, for some reason, you have issues with either composer or yarn, a good first step is to delete completely the `vendor/` folder (for composer) or the `node_modules/` folder (for yarn).

## Development setup (Dev environment, stable environment not yet available)

If you are a developer and want to contribute to Chamilo in the current development branch (not stable yet),
then please follow the instructions below. Please bear in mind that the development version is NOT COMPLETE at this time,
and many features are just not working yet. This is because we are working on root components that require massive changes to the structure of the code, files and database. As such, to get a working version, you might need to completely uninstall and re-install from time to time. You've been warned.

First, apply the procedure described here: [Managing CSS and JavaScript in Chamilo](assets/README.md) (in particular, make sure you follow the given links to install all the necessary components on your computer).

Then make sure your database supports large prefixes (see [this Stack Overflow thread](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43379717/how-to-enable-large-index-in-mariadb-10/43403017#43403017) if you use MySQL < 5.7 or MariaDB < 10.2.2).

Load the (your-domain)/main/install/index.php URL to start the installer (which is very similar to the installer in previous versions).
If the installer is pure-HTML and doesn't appear with a clean layout, that's because you didn't follow these instructions carefully.
Go back to the beginning of this section and try again.

If you want hot reloading for assets use the command `yarn run encore dev-server`. This will refresh automatically
your assets when you modify them under `assets/vue`. Access your chamilo instance as usual. In the background, this will serve
assets from a custom server on http://localhost:8080. Do not access this url directly since
[Encore](https://symfony.com/doc/current/frontend.html#webpack-encore) is in charge of changing url assets as needed.

### Supporting PHP 7.4 and 8.1 in parallel

You might want to support PHP 8.1 (for Chamilo 2) and PHP 7.4 (for all other things) on the same server simultaneously. On Ubuntu, you could do it this way:
```
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt update
sudo apt install php8.1 libapache2-mod-php7.4 php8.1-{modules} php7.4-{modules}
sudo apt remove libapache2-mod-php8.1 php7.4-fpm
sudo a2enmod proxy_fcgi
sudo vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/[your-chamilo2-vhost].conf
```

In the vhost configuration, make sure you set PHP 8.1 FPM to answer this single vhost by adding, somewhere between your `<VirtualHost>` tags, the following:
```
  <IfModule !mod_php8.c>
    <IfModule proxy_fcgi_module>
        <IfModule setenvif_module>
        SetEnvIfNoCase ^Authorization$ "(.+)" HTTP_AUTHORIZATION=$1
        </IfModule>
        <FilesMatch ".+\.ph(ar|p|tml)$">
            SetHandler "proxy:unix:/run/php/php8.1-fpm.sock|fcgi://localhost"
        </FilesMatch>
        <FilesMatch ".+\.phps$">
            Require all denied
        </FilesMatch>
        <FilesMatch "^\.ph(ar|p|ps|tml)$">
            Require all denied
        </FilesMatch>
    </IfModule>
  </IfModule>
```

Then exit and restart Apache:
```
sudo systemctl restart apache2
```

Finally, remember that PHP settings will have to be changed in /etc/php/8.1/fpm/php.ini and you will have to reload php8.1-fpm to take those config changes into account.
```
sudo systemctl reload php8.1-fpm
```

When using 2 versions, you will also have issues when calling `composer update`, as this one needs to be called by the relevant PHP version.
This can be done like so:
```
/usr/bin/php8.1 /usr/local/bin/composer update
or, for Chamilo 1.11
/usr/bin/php7.4 /usr/local/bin/composer update
```
If your default php-cli uses PHP7.4 (see `ln -s /etc/alternatives/php`), you might have issues running with a so-called `platform_check.php` script when running `composer update` anyway. This is because this script doesn't user the proper launch context, and you might need to change your default settings on Ubuntu (i.e. change the link /etc/alternatives/php to point to the other php version) before launching `composer update`. You can always revert that operation later on if you need to go back to work on Chamilo 1.11 and Composer complains again.

## JWT Authentication

* Run
  ```shell
  php bin/console lexik:jwt:generate-keypair
  ```
* In Apache setup Bearer with:
  ```apacheconf
  SetEnvIf Authorization "(.*)" HTTP_AUTHORIZATION=$1
  ```
* Get the token:
  ```shell
  curl -k -X POST https://example.com/api/authentication_token \
      -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
      -d '{"username":"admin","password":"admin"}'
  ```
  The response should return something like:
  ```json
  {"token":"MyTokenABC"}
  ```
* Go to https://example.com/api
* Click in "Authorize" button and write the value
`Bearer MyTokenABC`

Then you can make queries using the JWT token.
