The minimum requirement by this project template that your Web server supports PHP 5.4.0.

git clone https://github.com/ElegguaDP/books.git

Run this command in project base directory

php composer.phar update

Now you should be able to access the application through the following URL, assuming books is the directory directly under the Web root.

http://localhost/books/web/

Edit the file config/db.php with real data, for example:

return [
    'class' => 'yii\db\Connection',
    'dsn' => 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=yii2basic',
    'username' => 'root',
    'password' => '1234',
    'charset' => 'utf8',
];

NOTE: You must create the database manually. Use the MySQL-file books.sql into base directory.
