A custom installer for a SilverStripe based project, includes commonly used files and settings.

This installer requires you have the following:

• Composer
• Bower
• Compass
• Bundle

Use composer to quickly create a new project:

composer create-project plato-creative/plato-silverstripe-installer . @dev

When composer install is executed composer loads the PlatoCreative installer class and works through it's logic. It firstly asks the user for some site settings e.g. theme name and database name. It then asks if you are building a custom website or want to base it from a pre-build theme and modules. If you choose to use the base then you will get some basic styles and layout and a few pre-built modules. If you choose custom then you will get a fresh foundation install and limited setup.

The base theme adds the following plato modules:

• Home page slides
• Home page tiles
• Gallery
• Banner
• Page section

To run PHPUnit and tests use:

vendor/bin/phpunit

Edit phpunit.xml to change default configuration.
