Keep in mind, this mode can be used for production, but it is not recommended.
The whole directory must be scanned on each request. This might not make a big impact on small documentations but can be a bottleneck on bigger ones.
## Running Locally
There are several ways to run the docs locally. You can use something like MAMP or WAMP.
The easiest is to use PHP's built-in server.
For that i've included a short command, run `daux serve` in the projects folder to start the local web server. By default the server will run at: http://localhost:8085
## Running Remotely
### Clean URLs configuration
Daux provides native support for Clean URLs provided the webserver has its URL Rewrite module enabled.
To enable the same, set the toggle in the `config.json` file in the `/docs` folder.
```json
{
"live": {
"clean_urls": true
}
}
```
### Apache
Copy the files from the repo to a web server that can run PHP 5.6 or greater.
There is an included `.htaccess` for Apache web server.
### Nginx
Daux.io works perfectly fine on Nginx too, just drop this configuration in your `nginx.conf`
```
server {
listen 8085;
server_name localhost;
index index.html index.php;
charset utf-8;
root /var/www/docs;
location / {
if (!-e $request_filename){
rewrite ^(.*)$ /index.php$1;
}
}
location ~ \.php {
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
#fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info;
}
}
```
## IIS
If you have set up a local or remote IIS web site, you may need a `web.config` with:
* A rewrite configuration, for handling clean urls.
* A mime type handler for less files, if using a custom theme.
### Clean URLs
The `web.config` needs an entry for `` under ``:
```xml
```
To use clean URLs on IIS 6, you will need to use a custom URL rewrite module, such as [URL Rewriter](http://urlrewriter.net/).
## Docker
This is not meant for production use, but you can bundle your documentation in Daux's docker container
```
FROM daux/daux.io
WORKDIR /daux/
COPY docs/ /daux/docs/
EXPOSE 80
ENTRYPOINT [ "php", "-S", "0.0.0.0:80", "index.php" ]
```
When you add this to a `Dockerfile` and run `docker build --name my-daux-doc .` and then `docker --rm run -p 8000:80 my-daux-doc`
You can access your documentation at `localhost:8000`
