## Installation

- [How to install VPS with Debian 10](https://medium.com/vuefilemanager/how-to-set-up-vuefilemanager-laravel-application-on-vps-with-debian-10-64676a3ff4d7)
- [How to Set Up AWS S3](https://medium.com/vuefilemanager/how-to-set-up-vuefilemanager-with-aws-s3-as-an-external-storage-a2c525aec698)
- [How to Set Up Digital Ocean Spaces](https://medium.com/vuefilemanager/how-to-set-up-vuefilemanager-with-digital-ocean-spaces-as-a-external-storage-6cccf590c23d)

### 1. Upload files on your server
Upload project files to the web root folder of your domain. It's mostly located in `html`, `www` or `public_html` folder name.

### 2. Configure your Document Root
Configure your domain document root to the point of the files you previously uploaded directly into `/public` folder. So, if you uploaded files into `/public_html` folder, your document root must be set as `/public_html/public`. It should [look like this](https://i.ibb.co/SfLdmCQ/Screenshot-2022-04-06-at-08-53-29.png)

Don't forget to enable Force HTTPS Redirect.

### 3. Set write permissions
Set `755` permission (CHMOD) to these files and folders directory within all children subdirectories:

- /bootstrap
- /storage
- /.env

### 4. Open your application in your web browser
Then open your application in web browser. If everything works fine, you will be redirected to the setup wizard installation process.

### 5. Server Check
On the first page you will see server check. Make sure all items are green. If not, then correct your server setup by recommended values and refresh your setup wizard page.

### 6. Follow setup wizard steps

That was the hardest part of installation process. Please follow instructions in every step of Setup Wizard to successfully install VueFileManager.

### 7. Set up Cron

#### If you are running VueFileManager on shared web hosting (CPanel, Plesk etc.)
1. Create new cron job
2. Set execution cycle for every minute
3. Login to the VueFileManager as admin and go to the admin dashboard, you will see command which you have to copy and paste into the command input.

#### If you are running VueFileManager on linux server
1. Go to the terminal and run command `crontab -e`
2. Login to the VueFileManager as admin and go to the admin dashboard, you will see command which you have to copy and paste into the end of file.
3. Leave crontab and save the file.

### 8. CORS Configuration (When you Set External S3 Storage)
In your s3 bucket settings you should have option to set up your CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing). It's basically adding your app url to the list of allowed CORS. This step is required for reading pdf documents from s3 in your VueFileManager app without loading issues.

# Updating Application
1. Replace all files where the app is located except `/storage` folder and `.env` file.
2. Clear the application cache (Admin / Settings / Application).
3. In 5 minutes the app update stuff automatically on the background if needed.

## Nginx Configuration
If you running VueFileManager under Nginx, don't forget set this value in your `nginx.conf` file:
```
http {
    client_max_body_size 1024M;
}
```

And example Nginx config for your domain:
```
server {
    listen 80;
    listen [::]:80;
    
    # Log files for Debugging
    access_log /var/log/nginx/laravel-access.log;
    error_log /var/log/nginx/laravel-error.log; 
    
    # Webroot Directory for Laravel project
    root /var/www/vuefilemanager/public;
    index index.php index.html index.htm;
    
    # Your Domain Name
    server_name example.com;
    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
    }
    
    # PHP-FPM Configuration Nginx
    location ~ \.php$ {
        try_files $uri =404;
        fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.3-fpm.sock;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        include fastcgi_params;
    }
}
```

## Apache Configuration
Make sure you have enabled mod_rewrite. There is an example config for running VueFileManager under apache:

```
<VirtualHost example.com:80>
    DocumentRoot /var/www/vuefilemanager/public
    ServerName example.com

    <Directory "/var/www/vuefilemanager/public">
        AllowOverride All
        allow from all
        Options +Indexes
        Require all granted
    </Directory>
    
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =example.com
    RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [END,NE,R=permanent]
</VirtualHost>
```

## Migrating to Another Domain
If you move your VueFileManager application into another domain or subdomain, you have to manually change values in your `.env` file.
1. Open your `/.env` file.
2. Find `APP_URL` variable and write your new domain location. Don't forget start with defining `https://` protocol.
3. Find `SANCTUM_STATEFUL_DOMAINS` variable and write your new domain location without http protocol.
4. Remove your cached config file which is located `/bootstrap/cache/config.php`.

## Social Authentication
If you'd like to allow your users to authenticate via their social accounts, the setup is pretty convenient. Just don't forget to set up redirect url and required permissions.

#### Required permissions:
- Name and profile picture
- Email

# Subscription Configuration

## Configuring Production/Testing Environment
To set up your subscription, please follow these steps below.
1. If you didn't set up your subscription type in Setup Wizard, go to the `Admin / Settings / Application` and find subscription widget. Next set value as `Fixed`.
2. Go to the `Admin / Billings` and fill the inputs with your billing information.
3. Go to the `Admin / Payments` and turn on the switch `Allow Subscription Payments`.
4. Set up credentials for all payment gateway you want. If you set production mode, make sure you fill your credentials with production keys, and vice versa. If needed, don't forget to turn on `live mode` for PayPal.
5. Set up your webhooks, you can find your webhook url in payment gateway widget.
6. Go to the `Admin / Plans` and create your first plan. Make sure all payment gateways support the currency you want, especially for Paystack, it supports only `GHS, NGN, USD and ZAR`.

## Upgrading From Testing Environment to the Production Mode
1. Go to the `Admin / Payments` and set up credentials for all payment gateway you want with production keys type. Don't forget to turn on `live mode` for PayPal.
2. Go to the `Admin / Plans` and delete all your previously created plans. They will be archived.
3. Create new production plans you want offer.

# Broadcasting
### About Broadcasting
Broadcasting is responsible for real time app experience. If broadcasting is set, you will be able to get just in time updates in your app. 

For example, remote upload works on the background, while the files are downloading and showing in your view immediately after they are ready without refreshing the app. Or, you will get immediately notifications about new events like team invitations, file requests and many more.

More real time features will be implemented in incoming updates.

VueFileManager support 2 types of connections:
1. [Pusher](https://pusher.com/) - Suitable for all users and all hosting platforms
2. VueFileManager Broadcast Server - Free of charge, suitable for experienced users, limited for VPS servers

## Install VueFileManager Broadcast Server
We strongly recommend only for experienced users to set up and running VueFileManager broadcast server. For others, we recommend to use Pusher service to easy set up and host broadcasting service.

### Server Requirements
**For running app make sure you have:**

- VPS server with SSH access
- PHP >= 8.0.2 version (8.1+ recommended)
- Nginx
- Supervisor
- Certbot

### Installation
We assume you have installed and running properly your VPS server.
### Websocket Server Set Up
Upload VueFileManager into your server, for example path directory `/var/www/sockets` would be great. Next connect to your server with ssh and change your terminal directory into VueFileManager:
```
cd /var/www/sockets
```
Run installation command for websocket server. You will be prompted to type host of which you want to allow incoming requests.
```
php artisan websockets:install
```
### Domain & Nginx Set Up
Create subdomain for your socket host, for example `socket.hj4.cn` and direct this subdomain to your vps where socket server will be running.

Then, create nginx config for your subdomain:
```
nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/socket.conf
```
And paste the template below, just replace subdomain with yours:
```
server {
  listen        80;
  server_name   socket.hj4.cn;

  location / {
    proxy_pass             http://127.0.0.1:6001;
    proxy_read_timeout     60;
    proxy_connect_timeout  60;
    proxy_redirect         off;

    # Allow the use of websockets
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
  }
}
```
Enable your created config by this command:
```
ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/socket.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
```
Restart your nginx:
```
systemctl restart nginx
```
In the last step, install ssl certificate for your previously created subdomain with certbot:
```
certbot --nginx
```
### Supervisor Configuration
We need supervisor to manage running your websocket server on the background.
In `/etc/supervisor/conf.d` (Debian/Ubuntu) or `/etc/supervisord.d/` (Red Hat/CentOS) create a file `websockets.conf`.

Just edit php path, project path and user when they are different for your vps:
```
[program:websockets]
command=/usr/bin/php /var/www/socket/artisan websockets:serve
numprocs=1
autostart=true
autorestart=true
user=www-data
```
Run command below to start your websocket server:
```
supervisorctl start websockets
```
Run command below to stop your websocket server:
```
supervisorctl stop websockets
```
When you update code or server for some reason, you must also update running supervisor:
```
supervisorctl reload
```
### VueFileManager Set Up
Log in to your VueFileManager admin account and go to `Admin / Settings / Environment`.

Find Broadcasting form and select `VueFileManager` as broadcasting driver. Set your hostname and save the form.

That's all, you are running your own Broadcast server.
