POsome advice needed: xampp / git / openshift
text
Body
copied!<p>I've developed a PHP app with CodeIgniter, on a local xampp setup (php, mySQL, mercury) and am now trying to deploy it to an OpenShift gear.</p> <p>The local xampp app setup is ok, the openshift setup is ok, and the git setup is almost ok.</p> <p>The more I try to achieve my objective, the more complex it seems to get.</p> <p>It seems that the openshift php cartridge has a different folder structure to the xampp htdocs/application/... structure. </p> <p>So my attempts to push a git repository is pointless, until I've either done some fancy configurations to send the right files to the right folders, OR, I've scrapped xampp and switched to Apache / mySQL proper, which will then match the openshift gear.</p> <p>Am I missing something, or is there a simple solution? I'd appreciate some guidance and advice. Thanks in advance.</p> <hr> <p>My local xampp installation has htdocs with 3 applications, each inside of it's own folder, in the htdocs directory. </p> <p>The OpenShift equivalent of htdocs is php and inside is the application. For three applications, each application has it's own git repo.</p> <p>So I cannot simply change my DocumentRoot, from htdocs to php because (a) there is already a php directory - the php codebase which will then get pushed, and (b) I will be pushing all apps (in my case 3) to openshift, when I only want to push 1. </p> <p>So I'm thinking the only real "clean" way is to run my git repo interactions outside of my xampp installation entirely. </p> <p>(1) setup openshift application, (2) clone the remote repository to my local machine (inside c:\gitrepos) and then (3) copy and paste my whole app (only one app) code from htdocs to this staging area in gitrepos, and then (4) do the whole commit/push etc to deploy. </p> <p>Sounds solid enough to me, although a bit laborious....? </p>
